I think its this

L x w x h x 60minutes to find the air in the room but I do have in the back of my mind that I need to

L x w x h x 20 minutes

I have a 1.2x1.2x1.8m area do I just x these no then by 60 for the amount per/hour?


I hope this makes sense?

Thanx all

My tent looks well shrunken should I be putting the 420m3/h back in with another 6" fan & is it drawing 420m3/h once hooked up to the light and fan.

As I said I have 180m3/h in & have ordered a 5" which puts out 240m3/h will that be too much.

I can't believe I miss calculated I just assumed that a 6" fan once all ducted up to the light and filter would only draw say half of what it should how wrong was I.


Thanx all

don't have any space to grow ?
You need a mother or a cloning room ?

don't worry i've got you covered !

Materials needed :

x1 Old CPU
x1 Car windshield reflector or mylar
x2 Bulb socket
x1 Timer
x1 Surge protector
x1 26 watts (100w equivalent) CFL lightbulb (5000-6500k) x Vegging
x1 26 watts (100w equivalent) CFL lightbulb (2700k) x Flowering
x3 PC fans
x3 6-12 volts cell phone adaptors
x1 hot glue gun

First the car windshield will work as reflector material which i hot glued into the exterior of the computer.

The bulbs go with the bulb sockets and plugged into the surge protector and the surge protector gets plugged into the Timer, i found that combining the two kind of spectrums is the best you can do so i run the 2 CFL light bulbs = 52w

The pc fans were already in the computer i only had to wire them with some cell phone adaptors... allah ou akbar !!

White wire goes with red and black goes with black.

One fan draws air from below, one blows air to the plants in the middle and the last one exhausts hot air from the lamps above.

TOTAL COST : +-90$ canadian

I hope you like it and i will show you more pictures soon !! :biggrin:
