    Don't think drying in the attic tent is an option though (28 degrees up there today lol). I like the idea of tent next to tent but will maybe try cardboard box with ducting to tent first to save the space like I said before cheers for the thread I was pondering this while at work today lol

    If i had the money and the space, i would flirt with the idea about getting one of those large tents that have separate compartments, one main for growing and some have one or two separate side compartments, usually for propagation and seedlings or for a drying space, they look pretty cool but i do wonder if they are any good.

    That is a bit warm. The air coming into my tent is usually around 18 to 20 celcius so the box ... being not being directly under the light... doesn't get too warm. Once the airs ducked through it gets heated by the lights so the tents always about 4 degrees warmer

    Been there done that with OG Kush. My first plant. You could smell the chop a street away by all accounts :-(

    The wife went nuts. Hence why I have to have a proper tent and serious carbon filters to be allowed to continue.

    I always chop with additional filters in room and ona blocks around the house and windows and front door! Ideally a wet day if possible.

    So going with easy's idea still but slightly different as it will save me from having to move fans around, I imagine this would work but don't know if it would effect the fresh air getting to my main tent, so I'm getting a little tent 60x60x60 or 50x50x100 then hook it up to my intake fan with short ducting and just keep the passive vents open on the little tent, hoping this works okay and it's easier for me as my intake fan is using the bottom ducting hole and it will save me having to move the fan or using a long ducting to reach the top of the tent, only other thing is if i can get a ducting attachment which allows you to attach two bits of ducting to it then it goes back into one, I haven't looked for out like that just thought of it as I was typing

    Default Drying Tent

    Something like this but I may not need it if the fresh air won't be effected

    I used my 900x600 tent to dry in...linked up extraction with Y adaptors above and had all 3 tents with negative pressure...1.5x1.5...900x900 & 900x600

    An internal fan to move the air around the buds and that was it, left the plants whole but chopped for a few days, then stripped leaves and left for another few, then chopped up, left for another few and jarred...passive venting to this tent only too...the others shared an RVK 125

    At the moment I am using my 900x600 as a veg tent so when the flowering trio are ready to chop, I'll have to stagger my next germination either that or find space for the 1.5m
