3 autos
you're venting internally. it means you are recirculating the exhaust in to the same space. so any moisture / heat you are venting from the space is going to re-enter the tent intakes and keep recirculating. building up in the system as it does.
3 plants isn't bad. but they really pump out a lot in flower. it's easier to control stuff if you can somehow vent to outdoor. you don't need dehum / ac etc near as much if you can. also venting to outdoor is much cheaper than other options, and is generally the first place to go in environment control. it's much more important in flower. or if you have a larger set up.
edit : they look good though. super happy. about ready to explode. you're gonna have an excellent handful. good job.

That little tent got one little fan, I wasn’t even supposed to grow in there that was my drying tent, but what about my big tent? Is that fine? Do I have too many vents open?
it's not the number of vents. it's where you are pumping the air.
the plants themselves look great.
you might have heat / humidity / odour concerns during the latter half of flower, as you aren't removing the spent air. just pumping it back in to the same room the tent is drawing from.

So that black Ductin should be leading outside?
Yes. Otherwise you are just recycling the old, stale and heated air back through your tent to get reheated even more. HERE'S A POST in @Kanno26 's journal discussing one way to do that.

Plants look great in the pics! I can't see any damage/discoloration on the new growth since you changed to our feed schedule and the older growth deems to have recovered significantly. Do you still see any of the lower leaves with discoloration on the edges or did those get trimmed off?Almost a week of 12/12

looking really good newtothis420, lovely set up, looks very precise.
Note the earlier edit: “they look good though”
I feel this is what we should be saying at the start of a comment rather than adding it as an afterthought. Personally I don’t think it’s good etiquette to start a post with a dissection of someone else’s garden

Fair enough, but it wasn't an unsolicited comment. The OP was asking for thoughts and ideas, and many of the comments were suggestions on how he could improve things.

Ideally yes, even if you can poke it out of the door into another part of the house. I’ve grown where it’s not been possible to have windows open with exhausts etc and have got away with it. Bluter is correct in saying might get temperature changes and thus heat but a nice strong bit of airflow within the tent can combat that if getting the air out of the area is a problem. Sometimes need to work with what you’ve got

No it wasn’t an unsolicited comment and I never said it was. Just that it would be nice for people to start with a positive rather than paragraphs of lecture followed by a cheeky edit at the endFair enough, but it wasn't an unsolicited comment.

i call the issues as i see them
edit : hope that's not too cheeky for you.
don't worry about the damage on the lowers. it won't correct itself.
the important thing is you've halted it from moving upward. it means you've fixed the issue.

Idc how you start, or finish. I’m just grateful for all the opinions, advice, the help, all that. I agree with the person on the positive first but I’m okay with anything, I just want my plants to look like yours(meaning everyone else’s). Like I had good plants in the past but only one very good one out of like 8. Just wanna increase my ratio a little bit more. And they were autos where I got that good plant from. PictureS below but I didn’t vent right back then nor did I have a ac. Different room back then too and that room smaller too. That room would be bacon hot in there. Like a sauna . Come out sweating and 4 lbs lighter. But the weed wasn’t trash just didn’t build denser buds , smell was a lil strong but not like I want it to be but now I have bigger room, ac, better food, so idk well see…. Pictures are old grow and fox farm nutes and stuff

So the ac unit only comes on when the light do , so I was a little behind turning on the air and the temp got to 90 but drop and is stable around 78 but the plant looks thirsty, wat u think?
