Can anyone give me advice on why the ww x bb may look slightly curved like that, the candy kush i am begging it turns female as it is perfectly straight looking healthy as and growing like a beaut, these are about a week old + anyone got any advice on stuff to add to my tent?

nice little set up. I have a tent almost exactly like that one. when i get back home I can share some pics later if you wish.
My smaller tent i use those same 250 watt CFL but in my larger tent i have a 400 w HPS/MH that does wonders.
you might find that 250w not strong enough if you grow multiple plants in such a large tent.

Big thing you need soon is an exhaust fan as the smell will get pretty intense once you start to flower with so many plants.
Good luck

Here are some pics of my set up.



these are of my larger tent- I have two Kannabia Special going and they are about 30 days til harvest and I am trying a test 12-12 from seed grow.

my smaller tent i use to grow autos or veg. got 3 autos going in here - for light i have a 200w red CFL and a 125W blue CFL and this makes for a nice duel spectrum cab but it does run a tad warm with both lights on but I have a good fan pumping in cool air.

Nice fam let us know how that 12/12 goes, could you help me with something, if i get this; http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/4-Line-Fan-Carbon-Filter-Duct-Kit-Hydroponic-Grow-Room-Tent-Ventilation-/120802491988?pt=UK_HomeGarden_Garden_PlantsSeedsBulbs_JN&hash=item1c2063be54#ht_1736wt_905

How doe's it go into the vents and where does the ducting go? i'm very new to this and can't work it out

I am thinking if the ducting goes from one vent to the other surely that wouldn't be putting in or taking any air out just passing it through the ducting + does the carbon filter go in the extractor fan to stop the place stinking?

here is my opinion but I am very new to growing but my tent set up is pretty efficient.
That set up on ebay is just what i have and it works great. Just use the top 4" holes in the top of the tent to run the duct and cords through and out and hang that fan and filter inside the tent.Look at my pic #3 and its hard to tell but you can see my filter then my exhaust fan and then the duct work attached to that and it takes the air all outside. SO 100% of my air is ran through that scrubber then out.

If you are growing more than 1 or 2 plants then you need some type of exhaust fan to get the heat and smell out. I have mine vented out my wall to the roof as you can see in one of the pics. I don't recommended at all venting that air from inside the tent into the same room the tent.
You wouldnt really need any inlet fans but they cant hurt but you can just open some air vents on the bottom of the tent to bring in fresh air. Your 4" exhaust fan will create enough pressure to bring in lots of air from teh bottom of the tent as the great things about the tents is its easy to get the pressure regulated perfectly so you can bring in just the right amount of fresh air.

not sure I completely follow but with such a small tent like we have the 4" inline fan is all you should need to pull the air through the large scrubber filter then through the duct and out the tent.
All hanging from the top of the tent inside....
{filter}[inline fan]+))))duct))))))))> out>>
just make sure the inline fan is set in the proper direction to pull air out :)

you just sent me the link of the 4" fan below. isn't that what you are buying? just hang the filter and fan inside the tent and run the duct work out through your 5.1" hole

http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/4-Line-Fan-Carbon-Filter-Duct-Kit-Hydroponic-Grow-Room-Tent-Ventilation-/120802491988?pt=UK_HomeGarden_Garden_PlantsSeedsBulbs_JN&hash=item1c2063be54#ht_1736wt_905

check these two pics out. the first one is like the previous post where his air is passed through the light to keep things cool and the second pic is like my set up but they don't have the filter on the inside but they might have it on the outside.
