Air Circulation

[sharpezor]

Will a simple air pump work for a little 2 plant grow op?

I looked at the air pump specs (its actually a fish tank air pump but who cares right?)

And it says 3500 cubic centimeters per minute, it has 2 air outlets. (so thats 3.5 meters? Will that be ok?)

So ill probably have to get 2 of them, one to pump air in and one out.

Ill have to make sure its air tight, I cant have the smell leaking out. I plan to have the 2 plants in a fairly large rubber container. I already know quite a bit about growing, i just havent done it before.

I strongly recommend against the usage of those airpumps.

I haven't done the math, but I will if nobody else does, but 3500 cubic centimeters does not equal 3.5 cubic meters.

Fuck it... I did the math... here it is:::
3500 cm^3 = 0.0035 m^3

Get some fans... those airpumps suck for that application...
