IC 600 watt club.

what better a place than this to ask...i have been a member of the owning a 600 club for a while but not quite growing with it because i got a tent that i couldnt keep cool... does anyone here think i can cool my 22x36x64 tent with cool tube and 600-4inch inline exit? i dont need a scrubber yet and i will upgrade my fan but not for 3 or 4 weeks and i was wondering if anyone here works in spaces like this with their 600???... many say to pull across the tube but if i needed i could add an inline booster and go 4 inch-cooltube-booster-exit.... this will boost to almost what a 6 inch would do but for only 20 bucks more lol

yes you should be fine. i have a 600hps in a 36x36x72 with no probs at all. a lot will have to do with what you ambient room temps are. know what i mean?
 
ambient temps may be a small...or huge issue because its in my closet..haha so the air would go out the tent but stay in the closet mostly and eventually overheat...not sure how to handle this because it has to stay in the closet... the wife wont let it be anywhere else...plannin to move the rest to leds too soon but wanted to incorperate this cuz i bought it and never got to use it... kills me the only other grow area is my cab which is like 3x2x2.. def not enough room..so aggravated..plus i jus hit money issues so i cant pay for the seeds i jus ordered.. everything is officially on delay!! wackness

looking to join the 600w club but i need a bit of info before i go buying shit. im looking to make a 600w flowering cab for a perpetual kinda setup but i dont know what kinda size tent i should be looking into or if i should just use a closet or what. also if i get a light with a cooltube what kinda ventilation am i gonna be looking at? i would like something quiet that can get the job done, ive got a small s&P 125 on my 150w cab with no cooltube, would something that size work for a 600w tent if im using a cooltube? also does anyone have any tips for setting up a perpetual cab with a 600w hps?
 
Hi people new grower here :) and I have just purchased a 1.2m by 1.2m tent kit with 600hps and I'm finding it really difficult to cool the hps my light is really high and I have a fan blowing strait at the light and my temps by the top of the plants are still 27*c 28* I would really like to bring the temps down without highering the light any more? I doubt I will be able to Evan reach full flowering because the way its going I will not have enough room tu pute the light any higher when they stretch during flowering? Can I turn my ordinary light and reflecter into a air cooled one? Thanks buddys!!

OK well I still have no idea what a "normal" reflector is!!
What I was goin to say was run at least 260cfm inline fan for your
exaust pulling the hot air through your reflector and out the tent!!
Ive used all kinds of different reflectors and so far im sticking with thr Raptor Hood
with no glass. Awesome light spread and even without glass,easy to keep cool!
The plants love the lumens!!
Goodluck

Hi Greenadian, oh umm its a wing reflector buddy :) I'm not sure watch cfm my inline is but it is really powerfull its not one of them small weak ones! Im not sure how I can suck the air from the reflector because of the carbon scrubber? Can you tell me how to hook it up please mate? The only way i could think it to have my carbon scrubber outside blowing out instead of sucking out, is this how you do it buddy? :biggrin:

Ya man you got it! Carbon scrubber about 6 feet away on one side of the tent
Pulling hot air through my reflector(no glass) and out the side of the tent
and through the filter!!
So on the opposite side of the tent I have two cool air intakes!!
It creates negative pressure which pulls a lot of cool air in through
the tent!! Works Great
Cheers bro
