Grow Tent advice
    #27126123 - 01/04/21 12:50 PM (3 years, 24 days ago)

For christmas I recieved a 5x5x8 grow tent. My goal is to stuff it with oysters, maybe pio, maybe other gourmets. I havent set it up yet but I need to know how I should set up my intake/exhaust. I do have a fogger bucket to be placed outside and I have used it where a computer fan pushes air 24/7 while the fogger runs on inkbird. My previous set up was different in 98% of  ways and that's why I feel lost, it's also dizzying how much is going on with my gourmets. Should I have 2 inline fans for exhaust and intake/humidity or will that be too much fresh air? I would like a continuous FAE if that's plausible/best

Best to have a + and - flow fan on either side set on cycle timers.  Mine are set to turn on every 20 minutes for a couple minutes.  The inline fans and timers are relatively cheap. 






I got a coupla those timers. Do you have them on for 1 minute for a complete exchange?
I'll have to grab a couple of those fans. You find these are capable of cultivating oysters properly?

Edit realized you said couple minutes

I use that fan and cycle timer. Works like a charm.

To determine length of time to leave the fan on:
- get the sqft of your tent - 5x5x8=200sqft
- take to CFM of your fan and divide by 60 to get how much sqft/sec it clears - most likely 195 for that fan listed above. So 195/60=3.25sqft/sec
- determine how many seconds are needed for your sqft tent. 200/3.25=61.54sec

So leave the fan on for 62 seconds. If the stems are long, add 5-10seconds until you find the right balance.

Just change the CFM calculations if you get a different fan.

If you get more than one fan, just add the CFMs together. One fan would do it.

Have the fan come on 6 times an hour.

All this info i got from shroomsisay so I can't take credit.

I haven't colonized yet.  Maybe next week so I haven't got to play with my fruit chamber.  Extensive data and testing to come but I've Hella read the forums and gathered info.
