Venting when lights are off.

  1. Im curious to what fellow blades do? Do you run them on a timer or 24/7 or not at all.

  2. If you dont vent you will smell. Itll seep out. And your plants wont like the RH going RIGHT UP. Run it 24/7.

    Dont water during lights off.

  3. I usually keep my fans running that blow over the plants but my exhaust fan is on a separate timer that runs for 30 minutes after lights off and comes back on a couple minutes before lights on.

  4. 24/7. I'd never turn off my extraction fan.
    It's what pulls lovely CO2 into my tent.

    Also helps keep smell under control with
    my Carbon filter. Especially important
    during Flowering.

  5. Thanks guys. I been growing a while now & i have a intake fan fitted with a rhino carbon filter &the same for my exhaust. When its lights out i have my fans on a timer they come on every hour for 15 mins. Its fine but i just thought if it wasnt necessary i could miss out the very early hours. Fans do hum when alls silent. Its not noticed during day.

    Prolly not noticed here &im just overthinking lol

  7. What i meant was if you have a drip etc. How is aero?
     
  8. I love it. Bit more hassle & thinking but certainly worth it.
    I dabbled with the fans cut down on when they come on. Bad move!
    All the leaves before lights came on were all covered in droplets of water.
    I have now got the fans 1/2 hr on 1/2hr off. &possibly just put them 24/7.
