    Keep a tent of constant vegetive state.

    Match up a tent that compliments the size of your flower tent and the room and enjoy the fruits of your labour by adding 5 plants into each tent every 5-6 weeks.

    you could try passive intake into a small tent then extract that into a bigger tent with a bigger extraction and filter...if you follow lol

    tent - fan - tent- filter - fan

    i've not tried it but i guess it would rise temps a bit, but if the mother lives under a nice cool cfl then would it be too much of a problem??

    i think up_in_smoke uses something like it in his awesome loft palace can't quite remember... have a look...

    its a long one, but worth a look

    i'm pretty new to the 'hobby' too buddy, so don't take anything i say for granted, just ideas lol

    yeah see where you are coming from about the hot air that will need to be taken out of the mother tent wont be much if only using a CFL , but one i took uttings i wanted to use that tent to veg also

    fire away any ideas matey , any help advice is more than welcome , i was just playing with the idea of having a second tent at all , its just sitting there doing nothing so is waste not to use it


    but if i was it would be the idea you have said


    big tent , CF-8''FAN- DUCTING -SMALL TENT -CF-DUCTING then exhaust out of groom, not a bad idea that mate not a bad idea at all ,

    just mean with keeping the 8'' ducting ill need to make/cut a hole so it fits through my DR90II as the inlet/outlet holoe are only 6'' i think , would not be a problem , just tape it up good ,


    thanks for the reply bud

    I may be misunderstanding something, but it looks like a couple of the posts above have carbon filters being used inline.

    Most filters are single-ended, so you can't do duct--->filter--->duct or other similar variations.

    Best bet might be to put the (single) filter on the duct outlet, and a Y-piece to bring together the ducting from the two tents.

    Code:
    Duct---- ----Duct
            Y
            |
           Fan
            |
          Filter

    no you read correct miss, i just never really looked/read of how a carbon filter works , and before that post i had never seen 1 either ,

    so yes my theory is crap to say the least haha

    back to the drawing board , of i could try the 1 you kindly drew for me ,

    thanks for the reply
