Hi all,
I'm a new grower and loving the forum. I'm 4 weeks into my first amphetamine auto grow by cream of the crop (x3).
I'm using a 80 x 80 x 160 tent, it's set up in my cupboard so the side vents are blocked (it's very tight).. the only way I can get cold air into the tent is by running an inline fan and some ducting through the front door and zipping it up tightly around it. I also have the top hole open so the heat can rise out (there is about 2ft of space above). I'm trying to keep the budget as low as possible so it's all a bit DIY but I think the setup is ok so far.
I know I'm goin to need an extractor soon when they start to let off their sexy aromas but I'm worried about noise as if my neighbour clocks on it'll be game over! The walls are quite thin here as well so I know I'll need something really quiet. I already have a budget 7" oscillating fan running in there and that's making my palms sweat as it makes a bit of a humming sound so thinking of swapping that out soon with something better.
Can you recommend what setup is best for efficient clean extraction but with minimal noise?
Do carbon filters make a noise too or is it just the inlinefan?
I'm using 1 x dual 250 cfl and 1 x 300w red cfl and temps are around 86f but do fluctuate a bit. I know its not the most energy efficient method but with temps in mind thought it to be the best option. I'm hoping that the extractor might help me reduce temps a bit too..
I'm hoping to get this right as I've just picked up some girl scout cookie autos that I've heard are very stinky and they're up next!
Thanks in advance peeps
