Re: Icemud's Grow 8.0 - New Intelligent-Gro LED - 2 x IGRO-228 LED - Testing And Revi
I tried a few things such as moving my circulation fan lower to help move the cooler air around the plants and push the warmer air upwards. I also re-directed the exhaust air outputs in my room so that they exit the room more efficiently and tomorrow should be putting in a larger fan, so hopefully this should help lower the temps.. Its actually been pretty hot lately here and hit 85F out over the weekend, but luckilly at that the time the tent hit a high of 87F only so I know with the little improvements, it should lower the temps even more
I can't wait to test mine later this week when my 3 units show up. It won't be as much as you are running with the 3 (other LED's, **edited by Icemud) but it will be 432w of LEDs, I think there are so many things that influence how air moves in a room/tent like these. I have had a bunch of closets and grow spaces before and have sometimes been surprised with what fixes things. My first tent I had a low intake that I placed a long hose on that I could move around depending on the household conditions that were creating heat. It was a manual pain in the rear but I could keep the 400w at less than 80 in the sealed tent during summer. But it showed to me how minor changes in the household micro environment can have a big effect on these small spaces.
Was that even coherent? I am in harvest testing mode and it seems to be working.
