How many air exchanges do you guys run in your tents?

then I apologize as well I was a boss and had to learn not to be blunt and think about what my statements would mean to the person receiving them.WTF exactly ,not an easy thing for an old Marine who is used to saying shit and get the response how high lol
 
kingfish; I have two veg areas, and the tent is flowering one plant. Just checked on the tent and the plant is wilted as fuck. Temp is 91, soil was bone dry! So, now I'm going to leave the tent door open a bit. I'm going to move those plants on the right to the area behind the tent to mitigate some light pollution.

Less than 40 minutes from watering the wilted plant in the tent, and putting the fan back on her, and I kid you not, her leaves are almost back to normal! Scarily though, the temp is now at 93 and humidity is 26%.
 
You have to get the temp down. Do you have any flaps on your tent that you can open up. You only need total darkness for the 12 hour of dark during flowering period. Try not to reach 85 degrees. You can also take them outside if all else fails.

I've always had 2 8" ports open b/c there's a 6.75" fan pumping air into it at about 175CFM after accounting for back pressure losses. I opened the tent flap, too, a bit. The plant looks quite good right now. It's the hottest it's been outdoors at 110. If running an A/C was an option, I would.
 
I grew a plant during this time last year. Conditions were the same. Taking the fan off the plant to put on another one was a bad move. I also think I should have watered a day or two sooner. I always read it's better to underwater than over water.
 
I have never bothered to figure out how many air exchanges I was making. I run by exhaust fan on low 24/7. That's all I have ever done.
 
200 CFM in a 2'x4'x6' = 4 times per minute with no carbon filter- If a carbon filter is used, it reduces it to 3 times a minute.
Even though It can be dialed down, I usually run it at full speed most of the year.
 
I assume you mean the little ones. That's what I'm doing. After growing 5 nodes, I topped to the 3rd node and removed all below. I did this about 4 or 5 day's ago.
