Ive been looking into inline fans today seen a 4" and 6" on amazon, not really concerned about the smell so no scrubber, but im more interested in the way it should be set up.

The inline fan when vented to outside will take alot of the excess heat out.
Your fan blowing on the plants a little? Makes for thick stems

I just picture the tent being sucked in alot with the fan pulling air out, what about using an intake fan?
That does happen, tent gets sucked in a little.. My new tent has no inline fan or scrubber yet either..humidity is very high..i opened the tent flaps to vent the humidity..
Getting the fan and scrubber monday according to shipping info.

My tents get sucked in a lot . I bought some wooden dowls tapped two together if needed and have them at the same height as my canopy attached to the tent corners to protect the plants from the sides of the tents
For minimum ventilation you need to change the air 5 times an hour. A 2x4x5 tent would do fine with a 4"inline fan. They are usually about 50-75 cubic feet per minute and you only have 40 cubic feet.

Alright the one im looking at is 100 cfm thats not too much for my size is it?
No you'll be good with that. It is tough to find a fan of any quality with a lower cfm Than 100.

FWIW I use a 4" inline duct booster fan (these are cheaper and less powerful than normal inline fans) for my 2x4x7 veg tent. It also has a hepa intake filter so it has some restriction on the intake to slow it down. If your going wide open with no filter / scrubber I think one of these would be plenty for you.

Started to upcan to the 7 gal smart pots today but realized I only had enough Roots left for one plant, just a few more days until my bulk kit order arrives.
Heres a pic for now.

Alwayz, good idea you wait, imo, for the roots! ...good job!

Anyone have any tips on successful cloning techniques? I've tried with clonex & rockwool and also had some success at aeroponics if I could keep the heat down, but havent had the kind of success rate I need. Maybe it will work better with HB cuttings this time??

HB cuttings clone great and you don't even need any fancy stuff just some HB soil and cups
I take my cuttings put them in some RO water and then recut with a sharp knife under water and let them sit in it while I get stuff ready. I try and make the cut an ~inch long and try to get a node with the leaves cut off right above the cut. Then I make up cups just like I would for planting seeds with some roots on top. I usually give them a really light transplant drench but I don't think thats necessary anymore with the new roots. Then stick em in a couple inches and let the magic happen. When I used to have low RH I would cover each one with a small zippy but now that its sorted its not needed anymore I just keep the soil moist until until they start growing again.If you already have clone x I don't think it would hurt anything but I have never used it with this method so I can't say fo-sho

Thanks Smokey that sounds easy enough, soon as my package from doc comes in let the cloning begin.

Good deal. Just want to mention I have only done this with cuttings grown in HB wich are usually healthier than non HB plants so I can't guarantee it will work but I think it should

Do you scrape the stems at all or is just the node near the cut enough?
