Its a professional growlush mylar 1.2m x 1.2m x 2m which will have a oscillating fan inside and i have an 8" exhaust fan using a passive system (sucking air through the intake using only the exhaust fan).
The light used is a high output 400w MH.

Any advice or techniques are greatly appreciated guys
Thanks
Hi tristan1986

This is my second tent grow - I think one of the biggest issues is ventilation - do you have a fan sucking air out of the tent? (or maybe you said that already?) I installed a 4" carbon filter with a pretty strong fan and it works perfectly, not to mention the smell is completely gone. I got a $25 thermostat / hydrostat that remotely monitors the temps and humidity so I am not constantly opening and closing the tent to check them. Depending on the time of year, I open/close the different built-in vent flaps to control the temps.

There are lots of tips on this board also, just do a few searches.

I love my tent and my first product turned out way better than I expected


Good luck!
