Are these units in a room? If so controlling the temp may be easier to cool the room first, then use your intake/exhaust to regulate your temps. Running the ac ducted into the tents with the Thermostat outside will not be able to reliably control the temp like you have already found out. The...

Well what I see is you can split it into two of the SAME wattage. Like I said be smart and call them. They are going to tell you that what you want to do is not going to work and is not recommended and is dangerous. I’m putting it as nicely as I can but until you talk to them and get over the...

Jiffy pellets, rockwool cubes both stand up and won’t fall apart. I prefer rockwool but that’s mainly just because it’s what I use. 1.5” for seeds and 2” for clones. I have used jiffy pellets also and they work fine.

Yeah well, while blowing shit up is fun for all. This guy probably lives in an apartment complex surrounded by kids so if we can avoid a fire by letting him know this is a BAD idea it’s better for everyone.

I believe your missing the whole technical aspect of this. That splitter is designed for 2 600w Bulbs. Not a 630 and a 400. That splitter is just that, a splitter. It is not a magic diverter that know exactly how much power to send to each output. You will get roughly 500-550 watts to each plug...

I can’t see How this even possible? Have you tried powering up those bulbs at the same time? If not when you do I’d have a fire extinguisher ready and hide in the corner. Seems to me like a hazard waiting to happen. I don’t see how the ballast would be able to handle that load like that. What...

I used reflectix insulation on my walls and have been happy with it, but I think if I had it to do over again I would have just painted white. Simple, easy and cheap for the same results.

Phresh filters makes intake filters that do what your asking, there is also the mushroom style horti-control filters. I’ve used both and both did there job.

I use Lacrosse Mobile Alerts stuff they have temp/humidity sensors, you can get them with dry or wet probes to monitor canopy temps and res temps. You can get them with water alarm sensors for water leaks and you can set your high and low alarms for temp and humidity. it will email and text you...

I’d figure on getting more light in there and using a passive intake and just a 4” exhaust.

Dictating grow room size by number of plants is very difficult. There are many different types and styles of growing. A better way to dictate room size is by choice of lighting. Depending on the quality of led unit you have will determine the size/footprint it will cover. Is it 300 actual watts...

Yes should be good.

You can do it either way it makes no difference in usability. Whatever is more convenient for what you need is what I would do.

Yep, just get a surface box extender and some conduit. You aren’t really supposed to run standard Romex NM-B wire in a conduit but it won’t hurt anything. The correct method would be to buy some 12awg Thhn/Thwn wire in corresponding colors and run that in the conduit for code compliance. It’s...

No there’s no difference between a 220 and 240v circuit, they are the same thing. Most receptacles for 220/240 are rated for 250v. Adding this receptacle is perfectly fine and to code if done correctly.
