    Upgrade carbon filter for kushes? / Is one 400W enough? / How to cool tube more?

    (1.) Growing 6 plants. (2. Lemon OG Kush, (1. NLBlue, (1. Vanilla Kush, (1. Kandy Kush, (1. Blue Widow.. (1.) 160 CFM fan, (1.) 220 CFM filter. 6x4x8 foot closet. Will this be enough to eliminate smell in flower at least 90%?

    (2.) Will one MH and one HPS be enough if I LST and top them?

    (3.) I have a hot spot in my cool tube. It's warm to the touch except for one 4-6 inch diameter spot that's scorching. It seems as though the right side of my cool tube doesn't have much air blowing out of it. I was thinking of getting a 240 CFM duct booster for $30 off ebay. Would this solve my heat spot problem? When I had my fan sucking air from the cool tube and pushing it into the carbon filter sitting at the top of the closet, no heat problems. With the door closed I had a consistent 83.3 temp. Doing it the opposite way where air is being sucked from the filter, all the way through and out the tube, I have a good 85-86 temp. I haven't implemented an oscillating fan yet, I'm trying to get my odor problem down before I spend money on anything else. Any help?

    Six plants With one 400w light.. Probably not enough in my personal opinion, but they will still grow. Yields won't be very impressive. Also why would you blow air into the carbon filter? The filter and fan is used for moving a specific CFM of air out of the room any use otherwise just doesn't make sense for what you payed for also not to mention you want constant movement of air out of the room. I would recommend using a different tube of ducting for your cooltube with a fan, most likely 6 inch...
