Any ideas on how to have 2 fans work for two side by side grow rooms? each grow room is apprx. 6 feet by 9 feet with one 9 foot wall (temporary black material so i can cut through it) that is shared. i obviously need air in and air out. both holes are in the left grow room. i was thinking about making vent holes on the bottom of the middle wall thus carrying the cold fresh air into the other room. any thoughts?:eyesmoke:

Panama.

the picture is hazy bro. you need to present a diagram or give specifics as to room dimensions... and why these two areas are cut-off from one another by a 'black sheet ?' what type of fans are you talking about, inline? cfm? what lights will you be running, etc.... air cooled hoods? air conditioning?

One room will have vegging and mother plants. the other has the omega garden in it with its own light venting tube. vegging room will have T12 florecents and LEDs. i bought 2 fans, 200 cfm inline fans. it seems i need another fan.

is it a Volksgarden? okay... so the 200 cfm inline fans will work fine. Use one for the HPS light in the volksgarden. As long as its a good inline fan (-not- from Lowe's or Home Depot) it'll work probably even on a 1000w as long as you keep the ducting as short as possible... so go almost straight into the floor or up into the attic with that exhaust hose. And with only 200 cfm don't worry about what the intake is... it can draw staight from the room that the volksgarden is in. The other 200 cfm fan just mount in the veg/clone/mother room as a room exhaust (ie; on the ceiling and exhausting into the attic). Both rooms will stay comfortable enough so long as the house temperature is in a decent range. my 2 cents.

if by 'shared wall' you mean an apartment building... then whole thing is a bad idea :dunce:

otherwise.. i'm not sure what you mean... i wouldn't cut venting into the wall at all if you don't have to... i would go straight up into the attic... or if need be then down into the floor.

its a bedroom that i have divided into two rooms. I framed in 2 clean rooms out of plastic. they are probably only like 8 by 6 rooms 8 feet high.
