Rasta, check it out...

This morning, I really wanted to turn the MH On... but I didn't want the freaking leaf blower... soooo... I cut up the masking tape that made up the NASA-approved blower-to-duct seal, and I installed a 50CFM bathroom extractor fan I bought yesterday ($15). Then, I re-sealed the union with appropiate NASA writen "Masking Tape Sealing Methods, Volume I".

The small fan is dead quiet. Well, the reflector is cool to the touch, there's no noise... the temperature inside the grow room is stable @ about 88 F (!!!!!)....

WTF?! Apparently, the leaf blower raises the pressure of the air quite a bit... and, because when you compress a gas it heats up (NASA info), the air from the leaf blower was actually heating the entire shee-bang... !

Well, I'm keeping my eye out for the temperatures... but, so far, so good.

I'm going to install an air intake for the box, then place another one of these super nifty 50 CFM fans inside the box... try to get a little vacuum going on there (so the 'door' stays put).


I felt like kissing the little fan... but I didn't.

I'll throw an update in a couple of hours... I'm headed out the road to do a couple of things.

BTW: Another GREAT side effect of not having the freaking leaf blower with its noise... is the fact that I just re-started classical music therapy on them.... You hear that Garden Knwom?!?!?! More classical music!!! A, hahahahahahahaaaAA!!!!


Later,
