So my next question for my tent is… can I have two inline fans with carbon filter one pulling air into my tent and one pulling it out? @LKABudMan @Bill284

I ran an 6 " discharge with a carbon filter.
And a 4" pushing unfiltered air in.
Created a neg pressure zone.
Was perfect for my VPD.
You don't need the carbon on the intake.
A cloth filter is fine if your worried about air quality.
Have a great weekend my friend.
Take care.

I have a 4" intake fan in my 4x4 along with the 6" exhaust. I have a homemade carbon filter on the intake.

@LKABudMan @Bill284 Thanks guys. I only asked because I upgraded some equipment and will now have extra stuff to play with.

Woo-hoo! What size tent are you putting your new @VIVOSUN Smart Grow System in? I have mine in a 32x32, and no need for any additional intake.

So I have the spider farmer 2’x2’ . I know a second fan pushing in might be over kill. But if I already have the equipment…. Could I use it to make it better? Once I move for work in May, I’ll be getting a second tent to keep a clone going while I have one in flower. But for now when my stuff gets here this upcoming week I’ll have two 4” in-line fans(one Vivosun and one spiderfarmer) two LED lights (one Vivosun one spiderfarmer) and two carbon filters (one used but still working and one brand new with this order)
You shouldn't need anything else with that system. The Growhub will kick your exhaust on and off to control temp and humidity. Unless you can get the intake fan to match, it will probably do more harm than good staying on all the time.
Are you planning on using both lights right away? You could probably use just the AeroLight for veg. Put it in 'veg mode for more blue light. It will be plenty of light for veg and save you a bit of money. You can always add more light in flower if you need it.

Maybe with the Vivosun in-line fan it will be better with the control. I just feel like airflow was not the best with the spider farmer system. I’ve had to run it on high 24/7 to keep the tent in check. Being in Colorado I fight the lack of humidity. So I invested in a humidifier with a built in hygrometer. Unfortunately it’s always 10% off on the upside lol I have one other hygrometer to confirm in tent. I’m worried the Vivosun system won’t like this.

No. I was only going to use the new one when it arrives and was going to pack the SF1000 away for the move. I did read that the Vivosun can connect to other systems? My sf1000 is a very nice light. Has a dimmer and connections for more lights. I wonder if they would connect..Anyways I’ve had success so far with just the one light in my small tent..

When the new light comes in take a look at the connections going into it and see if it matches what's coming out of your spider farmer light. If they match, triple check the voltage and amps coming out of the SF match what the new light requires. As an example, even if the connectors match, if the SF outputs outside of the range that the Vivosun light can input you can have a situation where you burn out the driver on the new light.
Growth looks amazing though, very rigorous.
I believe you can use the Growhub with other lights,including SF. @VIVOSUN do you have a list of lights that the Growhub can control?

Day 17 December 7th- New equipment will be here on Friday. I did a little root trim. So she’s a little droopy in this picture, but recovering very well.
I also started to do some stress training. Gonna top her in a day or so as well.

Day 19 December 9th- Things look great. The Vivosun system definitely is working well. I did notice the left light hook was shipped with some damage. I reached out to them and hope to hear back soon @VIVOSUN. The light hook does not want to go outwards like the right side. You can clearly see that it’s bent and that the metal does not connect correctly. I’ve had to make do and keep one ratchet strap higher on the left side.
Do you have a zip tie or something to help hold it until you get a new one?Day 19 December 9th- Things look great. The Vivosun system definitely is working well.

It hangs but it does not want to swivel outward it just wants to be straight. Whereas the right side swivels in straight and out the left only swivels inward and straight up not outward. @LKABudMan did you have this issue?Do you have a zip tie or something to help hold it until you get a new one?

I have the VS1000 and it hung perfectly.
Did you hear back from @VIVOSUN yet?
I'm sure they will ship you a new one immediately.
