this is my first post on the site I've been gettin info from here for a couple months n thought I better join n ask some questions before I waste any more cash lol this 1s gona be big and I'm on my phone dammit I have 2 tents one for veg and one for flower the flower tent is slightly bigger but they are both about 4 foot wide off memory I'm running 1 600 watt in both tents. I have a 6 inch centrifugal extraction fan atatched to a carbon filter both rated 440 cfm in the flower tent blowing to outside and also a 30cm oscolating fan infront of the left side passive intake vent to help draw in the 20-25 degree room air and keep a good even airflow across the plant canopy and to cool the light so I don't have to use my stupid cooltube or hood this worked well on my first grow I think.. I pulled 8 ounces off four plants with 1 month veg but had mad problems with humidity being 2 high and lost a bit 2 mold towards the end.. I think it was mostly because I left the water in the pot trays.. but I bought a mini dehumidifier for the next run just incase.. for the veg tent I have a 6 inch duct/axial/booster fan (wateva u wanna call it) at 250 cfm working as an extraction fan and a small desk fan pushing air around in the tent.. not cutting it felas I'm in the middle of summer and the highest its got in there is 39c overnight cause I had to turn the fan down due to noise issues I'm still in mid 30s tbrough the day with fan goin full throtal this is where I'm stuck and would love some professional advice.. I've tried using the fan to suck hot air out of the tent through the light and out the tent and it made no difference obviously lol.. but i don't like the idea of running 2 seperate extraction fans in the 1 tent (one for light and one for tent air) neither do I like the light spread of either the cooltube or the hood I wasted money on.. my questions are 1. should I buy another centrifugal for veg tent to suck all the hot air out? or is there another qieter method (already ordered another 30cm oscolating fan for veg to replace small desk fan btw) 2. how does any1 manage running 2 6 inch centrifugal fans on full throtal to meet carbon filter cfm rating and manage the sound.. I've already gone through hell making a box for my fan wich cost me over 100 dollars just to find out that it was useless cause i had to sit it outside the tent being so heavy and learned the hard way that the fan should be mounted to the filter or u loose cfm.. so much cfm in my case that the suck in pressure of the tent was close to none so now I have to spend more money and go to the hardware store to get foam killer just to get it back out lol.. what's the go here felas.. I've been brought to tears that many times n tried so many different techniques and am constantly stressed about noise and temperatures and this is only the begining lol but I have to make this work.. I should have come here n asked before i even started this journey but I had to learn the hard way as usual.. herb makes u a perfectionist wich seems to hav pros n cons.. but I must say I had no idea Wat I was getting myself into I thought this was gonna be so simple after growing outside.. anyway any suggestions would be muchly appreciated thanks for takin the time to read guys
