[SpiritLevel]

Looking good so far, looks like you done it before!! keep us posted.. Q. Where is your air in?

SpiritLevel Reviewed by SpiritLevel on 09-12-2006. 8' x 8' room setup Ok, heres the dealeo. Im 17, almost 18, currently too lazy to get a job, and love plants of all type. I have some Lions Tail plants growing in a homemade bubbler cloner made from a laundry tub, so building anything is not a problem for me. My mom likes the idea of growing some weed, she has given me an area in the basement to grow in which I have just finished putting up a wall to section it off. The room is 8 feet by 7 feet by 7 feet tall (392 Cu Ft), and I have access to 3 15 AMP Rating: 5

Air is coming in through an oppening in the roof.

I will post a pic later tonight when most of the room is done. The tiles are being taken down, and the roof will be covered with tarp. Im just finishing off the wiring for the Dual 15 Amp circuit, and then some other minor details, then will get the pic

PS: Thanks for the comment Spirit!

If you can duct your air inlet to be at floor level it might help keep the cooler air under the warm air. Since warm air rises it would be advantageous to have the cool air sucked up behind it. Failing that, I dont think adequate air will be forced to circulate around your grow area

Hmmm...

Well, im considering getting a larger blower * MUCH LARGER *, 2000 + CFM or more. Could use my current 465 CFM blower as an intake from the outside of the growroom, and send the air through multiple tubes to:

#1 Bring in fresh air.
#2 Blow the air directly on the plants via vent tubes to strengthen plants.
#3 Mix the air around.
#4 Other possible things that may happen at the molecular level when there is moving air. * uh oh, startrek thoughts are happening *

Will need to find a way to conceal the noise of the exhaust outside tho. Oh well, I will find a way, I always do, hehe.

Does anybody know which is louder?

One 2000 CFM Box Fan
Pro: Moves alot of air for its price.
Con: ITS HUGE!!!! Could maybe place it outside of the grow room...

or

Two 737 CFM CAN Fans
Pro: Small, will move a decent ammount of air.
Con: More expensive for less airflow but possibly quieter.

What do you guys think?

Hey Hazmat
If you live were the power goes out alot You can buy a whole house generator For around 4000.00 with a swicthing box ,so when the power goes out a couple of mins on come the gen& when power comes back on. off goes
the gen.If I was going to use co2 I would start with co2 tanks.Those gas burning co2 generators are for alot bigger room.You can spray them with
carbonated water{seltzer water} do it when the lights are off so you dont
boil the plants.Here's some good clips on indoor grow room at Stoned Free guide to growing Cannabis.-Google Video .It will help you with fans and air cleaning too.Are you going to cover the walls and floor with white poly?
Zanor has a thread on here all about co2.Keep up the good work on the grow
room.

Hazmat I got a vortex fan made in canada. It's about 49db's. I build a box and installed it inside with rock wool sound insulation.I put it up in the attic and I dont here it at all.The one I have is a 6" 449cfm's 49db's it exchanges the air in the room around every 25 mins. .My room is 2'x8'x8' width times length times height will give you the cube feet of the room.you can go from there to see how big of a fan you need.
