I wasnt finished running it in the picture above, its going all the way out of the room
Im probaly gonna get a temp. and humidity controlled fan. For my next grow. I took the filter cover off
The prefilter serves a purpose keeping the small particles from prematurely clogging the charcoal filter…is it black when it was new?
May just need rinsed/washed.
This is what I have for an in line extraction fan and it has a minimum fan speed and a setting for max temps and once that max temp is reached it will automatically increase fan speed until temps fall below setting and then slow down to set minimum speed.
The hyper fan comes with basic manual speed controller but in order to have a constant minimum fan speed say 35% speed and have it ramp up to full speed when temp reaches set point and then slow down after cooling below that temp the optional controller is required. I also have the same inline fan you have and use it in veg tent but the hyper fan does what I need without much interaction on my part. I do need to adjust the settings from time to time as my environment changes based on what the outside weather is doing from seasonal changes…summer winter etc. in my basement. It only senses temp and not humidity and for humidity I use a different unit that you connect either a humidifier or dehumidifier or both to it with sensor probe that regulates RH.
This can be used for inline fan too but issue is that it will turn off fan completely and you don’t want that…inline fan should always be moving/exchanging air 24/7.
Also the hyper fan is lowest power consumption fan compared to others out there using less than half the power of others like what you have or the infinity iCloud fans etc
Hope this helps

So If i just get the fan, it wont have any temp. Controls?
About that filter, should i turn the fan off until i get a clean pre filter. Its running without one rn. I flicked veg and bloom on overnight.
I use 3 thermomiters in my tent, bottom of tent, one in the plant pot and other on top of light. Temp. Wiil lower a few deg. On just veg. Or just bloom. So would it be better to only one on. They all read in 80s rn. And humidity reads 37 on 1 and 40 on the other 2.
Fan comes with a “dimmer” Rheostat that you can manually set at x % speed just like one I bought and hooked up to my old 8” fan…set and that’s that unless you go in an change speed to whatever…
The optional controller…allows the minimum speed setting and a max temp setting so it speeds up until temps fall below your set point…then slows back down until needed again…
Old fan
Newer fan
Just wash the one you have now if you think it’s causing restrictions with venting hot air. I would keep running the inline until you wash and dry it…I usually just do it in the sink with soap and let dry in tent then put back on…or order another one.
Temps will be highest up top and lowest at bottom and that affects your RH…hotter lower RH etc…plant level is most important to know…the tops etc

(Humidifier and dehumidifier) Completly forgot i had these. Dont need em right now. But probably will for next grow.
For future grows, does the humidifier need to be inside the tent?
@StillSmokin @Konflict @Skydiver
Yes. Put it inside the tent and close to a fan so it’ll push the moisture around the tent

Hey @Tdog94wl I figured that I would come over to your thread to answer your question about sog or scog autos. SOG is Filling your space with a bunch of small plants evenly spaced. SCOG is training one or more plants to fill your space in order to give a similar affect as SOG. The issue with using autos is that you don’t have much control over the size of the plant or when it flowers. in SOG you may outgrow your space. In SCOG you might out grow your space or you might fail to fill the space completely, however a net screen could still work well for training your autos. You could build a frame out of PVC then use rope to make the net if your tent didn’t come with one

The majority of the pistols have changed color
But theres one branch where they are all white. Is that a problem or is it just growing slower than the others?

How much training did you do on those?
If you zoom up on the phone take a photo and zoom that you should be able to get a good screen shot of the trichomes…
Looks close, just can’t zoom in enough without it getting blurry…
Is that part getting as much light?..

I trim the shade leves about 3 weeks into flower, when the sugar leves are growing. Yours are almost done, mine wouldnt have any shade leves at that stage.
I would give her a good clean up so air and light can get in.
@Not2SureYet is a pro on autos.
Maybe he could give a bit of advice…
