    Default Small veg tent, please help?

    Hi guys, making a start on my second grow, stealing a few ideas from the growers here too.

    Bought a wee tent to veg in, 60x60x60cm.

    Could anyone tell me please if I can get away without a CF/fan?

    Is 2 t5 lights gonna be enough? I've got one so far but think I'll need more.

    I'm assuming a humidifier is essential, since I had problems with that first time round. Will a smaller tent be more humid?

    Bought a wee battery powered fan to use from seedling too

    My plan is to have 3 plants again. In the vegtent for 5 weeks before I move them into the bigger tent, probably for 2 weeks of 400w then flip to flower with 600w. Can this be done?

    I'm on week 3 of my first grow and I plan on having my second grow underway by the time I chop my first.

    I have a 100x50x50 prop tent, running 4 tube maxibright T5HO... them T5s are awesome and the plants love them but they do kick out heat without air movement... iv been here before and ended up using x2 4inch bathroom extraction fans for intake and exhaust, its not ideal but it works... RH is low in there and always is but i dont stress about it and they always do fine 👍🏼

    What do you recommend for a fan/filter for a space that small MC?

    ETA: Just seen TT's reply after I hit send. Where's the best place to buy small bathroom extractors? I mean I've never tried to fit a bathroom before... How many plants in your 50x50 TT? And how long do you keep them in there before you move them out?

    Il take some pics of it when i get back from me birds... iv kept 4 in there in small pots but when they get bigger an beggin to be potted up it becomes to cramped due to size of pots... plus the t5 only 60cm in length... 2 in there are good for upto 5 weeks from seed then straight into flower...

    That would be awesome TT thanks. I wanted to do 4 plants for my first grow but it didn't work out as I was busy killing my seeds haha.. I hope I do better second time round. You seem to have it all worked out so that gives me some hope that it'l be relatively stress free. What do you suggest as a maximum veg pot size?

    Nom I'll send you my 4" when this grow is done (about 4-8weeks total but will have replaced extraction by then). If you want it that is. Small 4"tt100 and rhino filter.

    Thanks Karsa how big is the filter? Not sure it's necessary, dunno, that's why I'm here asking! Just looking at those fans online I'm sure it would sit on top of the tent.

    If you stick it on blow it won't matter. But you're more than welcome to it
