    Will a male mature under 18/6 photo period

    So I went ahead and topped the male, A.K.A. "Dude", I locked up the top and set him into flower. But as a Plan-B I kept the bottom and put him out in the living room to finish away from everyone. Then incase I totally screw up I took some clones from way down low and have them in veg. Think I...

    Can I vent my grow room out my furnace exhaust

    Stopped by homers and got 6" to 4" fitting for the cool tube. 25' of flex duct and priced the wye, only 10.00. Noticed a back draft damper for a dryer for 6.oo and thought if it was back right after my fan, at the end of the vent run before the last 2.5 ft. of duct that taps into furnace exhaust...

    Can I vent my grow room out my furnace exhaust

    So keeping the fan on, keeps the air flow going, preventing dangerous exhaust from the furnace from leaking back into the grow room duct. Am I correct in my choice of using a wye fitting to tap into furnace duct because it acts as a sweep directing the air up and out?

    Can I vent my grow room out my furnace exhaust

    I was afraid of this. I suppose I'll check out diy carbon filters and vent under the stairs. Any other suggetions or advise dealing with original thread would be helpful.

    Can I vent my grow room out my furnace exhaust

    My Grow area is right next to my furnace venting going out to the roof. Can I use only a wye fitting to tap in, or do I need to put a backdraft damper in to prevent exhaust leakage back into the grow room when the fan is off. I am on a shoe string budget and am trying to save $$. I would make it...
