Hey guys I have been creepin' on the website for a while and finally decided to post my first grow that is in progress. I have a veg room that has a 8 lamp T5 over clones, and a 400 W metal Halide. My flower room is a 4x4x6.5 with a 600w HPS and cooltube, with a filter an 6" inline fan. I am about 16 days into flower right now. I have Buddha's Sister, White Widow Max, and Skunk #1. They are in oceans forest soil, i used Age old Grow and Kelp at first but recently purchased the foxfarm trio. I welcome any comments/advice because I really am a noob and want to learn as much as possible!

I still haven't purchased a thermometer/hygrometer so I cant say exactly what my temp is. I am sure I will eventually get one but I have had no problems, it doesnt get that warm in there at all. My ballast is outside of the tent and I have my inline fan hanging outside of the tent pulling air from the filter thru the cooltube and into some ducting into my wall. I believe if you are venting without a carbon filter you could vent two of these tents with just one 6" inline fan.

Did you use a "T" or baffle box to hook the two ducts to a single fan? Most of the draw of the fan will be from the open cooltube, and almost nothing is going to be pulled through your filter. Your plants are beautiful.

Thanks man, the cooltube in the pic isnt connected with the ducting because it came with a crack. I just have it filter->duct->cooltube->duct->fan->6"-4" reducer->ducting in the wall.
