Sup Folks! First off, thanks for taking the time reading this and for any comments or helpful advice. My situation: I have recently decided to add a 6 foot linear light mover into my grow box set up. I am using a 1000watt HPS inter-cooled tube, both ends of the tube are connected to an intake and out-take 6inch exhaust foil duct work. When the light moves back and forth along the linear mover's path, at each end, there seems to be a problem with the duct work. When I originally built the box, the light was stable in the center of the box and duct work never moved. Now that the light is in motion, there are kinks or bends in the ducting that sometimes cause tears in the foil or even worse, the slack from the ducting sometimes hangs down too low and makes contact with the top portion of the vegetation. So my question is; does anyone have any ideas of keeping my duct work from tearing or hanging too low. I tried using the plastic bands to attach it to the ceiling of the box in hopes that it would fold in like an accordion when the light gets closer to each end of the vent holes, but that caused some tearing in the foil which completely defeats the purpose of exhausting my light. I might just have to use a different grow method to keep the gals lower to the ground, but I only have one mother plant to clone from and she can only produce but so many PLEASE HELP !!! Thanks peeps later werz
Why do so many people with growing questions make a thread here? I would understand Toker's Q&A, but here?!
I think it's because this is the only place they can make a thread until they have a certain number of posts.
