At this time I only have a 110CFM fan exhausting air out, with a 80CFM blowing cold air toward the intake side of the fan.

I Am going to buy a better one ASAP, but within the past week I have already spent $1000 ony my grow room...so well...the wife isn't too impressed.

Temp outside my area is about 70F ish.

My area is only about 3 1/2 feet high, will be building a bigger room within the next couple months....again blew too much money on the grow room. Hoping to keep topping the plants and make them bushy as can be...

Thanks for help and advise....

you do need a larger fan, especially with 6" diameter ducting. but your space is so small for a 1000 watt light i'm not sure anything you can reasonably do will help until you move to a larger space.

Hey your supposed to be positive...

I'll go get a minimum of 300 CFM fan right away, it will keep the temps down, and also get a bigger exhaust fan. My question is can I have a pasive intake and not be worried during flower when they stink?

as long as your passive intake is sized small enough and your exhaust fan is on you'll be fine. as for being positive, i am very positive that you will have heat problems. didn;t want you to go into it blind.

LOL, I know I know, I was told going in already. But I figured why buy a 400 or a 600 when I am going to want a 1000 when I switch rooms anyway. You don't think having a much stronger fan would help out heat issues at all?

you might get away with it with insulated ducting and a big fan but i would not bet my engineering degree on it.
