Hi everybody 
Coming from a 2x2x2 grow space with 50W I will upgrade to a 2x4 tent and plan to start with this setup maybe in September or October. There are still some components missing. Here's what I have right now and how I want to proceed. I will be glad to read your comments/proposals/questions.
Light: Viparspectra 2024 XS 1500 Pro LED
Tent: Spider Farmer 120x60x150 cm
Ventilation: S&P TD-250/100 silent
There's some components still to be decided on / bought.
I will start with 150W and with this tent there is a potential to add another light.
Inside the tent I want to have some clean space for the plants and maybe some other equipment I would need to provide a proper environment for the plants.
Silence
I ordered silencer, which was pretty dented. I received another one and could keep the dented one for free. Here is a prototype of what it will look like. Those silencers really do a decent job. There is literally no sound from the airflow. It's only the ventilator that makes low sound.
Cleanliness
I try to avoid having tubes in my tent. So I thought I give this option a try. I plan on using a ventilation grid which fits perfectly into the intakes. Of course I will use some material to prevent light leakage. I may change this once I find a good way to install tubes that would have to go through the whole room to get fresh air directly from outside. This also applies for the exhaust.
Airflow question
I don't get why the intake is at the top of the tent. I am thinking of 2 possible solutions to have the fresh air directed to the bottom.
I mean, fans will make the air circulate but most of the air going in at the top would just be sucked out at the top, right? Is this a fallacy of thinking?
Cheers
