    Insulation

    Hey all.

    Just wanted to pass this on.

    In a few other posts. I was asking for help. And had a bunch of temperature and humidity problems. My tent is in a basement on a concrete floor.

    I added an inch of foam insulation under the tent. With no measurable change in tent temperature..

    Setting the other 1/2 sheet of insulation on top of the tent has raised my tent temperature about 3.5 degrees.

    I just needed to put a warm hat on the tent.

    Another way for those struggling to get temps up in their grow area that need to exhaust in the basement is to either reverse the fan on a top tent extraction (you may get a bit more dank aroma in the basement) or extract from the bottom of the tent and draw in the warmer air from the top.
