yes but you have 0.60x0.60.....so im not surprized... at times an open window in summer is then oke...

 

 

tc has...  1.20 X 2.40 in a  3.00x3.00  room

 

thats a very big difference in heat and water amounts to give to plants....condensation and mould problems to the property... :(

Funny enough I've not opened the window once to date since moving into this placelol , I just open the bedroom door if it was ever needed in the summer and let the air con take care of the it, we also have some big floor fans that help shift air around the home so it makes the air con and dehumidifier more efficient:yep:

I forgot to add the most important bit of context as to why I don't open my bedroom window,  I have a phobia of spiders :fear:lol

what size is your tent / room tho? How do you handle the humidity?

Aye, for a small setup in a well ventilated / draughty room, no problem. Bigger the setup, poorer the ventilation, you are going to have issues! Also at this time of year, condensation is much more likely due to cold air outside, wind chill, etc.

I extracted a 1.2m tent into the same small room last year. I did have some issues with grey mould. I've have since cracked the window open. I need to find a solution for insulating the room.

 

You need some exterior venting IMHO.

I’m currently exhausting into the same room. It’s an unoccupied house. I’m starting to see some deficiencies on my leaves. Could this be caused by the same stale air being recirculated into the tent?

Possibly. I experienced Powdery Mildew in similar circumstances.

My original comment is not in thread context as I misread the topic at the time, but in the context of my own grow set up

:yep:
