    Default Answered: +/- air pressure in a grow tent?

    Can someone point me in a good direction for data on growing in negative or positive air pressure inside a tent.

  2. "Anyone with a proper ventilated room will be growing in ''negative pressure''

    it just means more air leaving the room than entering,
    that way no bad smells/heat build up and plenty of rich fresh co2 for your plants to enjoy,"

    not sure what your looking for fellow but you want to cause a vacuum because it stops the smell getting out, reduces humidity and helps to keep the groom cool
    for example 5" intake air and 6" exhaust to keep a good amount vacuum without pulling the plastic off the wall

    I’m curious about if there is any research done on negative vs positive pressure in tents and the affects it has on the plants.

    There most likely will be, NASA would be the best place to start researching this (No, I'm not taking the piss!)

    If you grow in positive pressure more air is goin than is getting sucked out making your carbon filter irrelevant.

    Which means your whole street will know your growing I'm hoping i don't need to explain the rest..

    I'm generally hoping your joking about with this question

    He's interested in the science on how it affects the plants not whether he gets caught.

    Sadly he hasn't realised what he was looking for is already said in a different way.

    But I'm not gonna do something like poi t it out. He could have (at any time) just Googled "Positive vs Negative pressure and how it affects plants"...

    The smell thing seems the irrelevant part to him. Not us
