ok so here's the deal.. i have a small ish grow box

4' l x 2' d x 3' H

and im not sure if a cooltube would work? ive herd you can grow plants right around cooltubes.

also how much ventalation ( in cfm) would it take to keep it cool ? and how much ( cfm) would i need for the total growroom 24 feet cubed

Cool tube works very nice. Your cool tube goes on a hose and at the end of that hose goes extractor . Extractor blows heat generated by the bulb ( don't now what lights you have ) out of your box !

for 24 feet cubed . . . the cheapest extractor 250 m3 30 w !

here in Europe, the price is around 50 â?¬ ! In dollars => 75 bucks !

You can mount a cooltube vertically and grow your plants around it. The cooltubes stay pretty cool, so, depending on the size of bulb you are using, the plants can grow pretty close to them.

The fan that vents your cool tube also vents your grow cab. You don't need two fans; the cooltube fan sucks air from the cab, blows it thru the tube then it exhausts outside.
