Another update -> 70x70 Mars Hydro!

The Mars Hydro tent is a real disaster, the fact that they didn't make a big hole at the bottom to be able to insert an air intake hose is an outrage in my opinion!

Got a light leak, at 12/12 -
I noticed it after 4 days or so.. So we now have flowering day 24 instead of 28.. or so :D

Everything is clean, no hermaphrodites (searched today).. it's good.. iam glad and happy about that!

The hole crew:

What is in the tent? (small reminder):

Last row ->
Savage Hulk F3 (bred by me) incredible fruity smell! Thickest flowers so far.
#4 and #2 - 2 different phenos:

#2 has an incredibly good stacking in my opinion.
#4 has much more biomass and smells more intense and fruity.
Both Plants in soil (7L or 1,85 Gallons) with Biotabs and compost tea.

So #4 so far the favorite for my F4 selection.
However, I have found some other Plants that are a much more indica...

I still have to think about whether I'm driving 2 lines or which direction I want to go with the F4!
2 lines would be too much, again, who has the space to test them all? I have to many different projects :/

But I can't decide jet!
We will see if #4 will be after the harvest still my favorite!

Lets go to over the other plants in the tent,

Front row, right side =
CBD #1 from ACE - 0,55% THC and 12% CBD

Front row, left side =
Runtz (Clone Only)

Saying the tent is a disaster because you didn't do the research is something.
If you desperately need a hole down there, just make one. :biggrin:

Hey!
Its something? Maybe its not a big deal for you, for me it absolutly is!
How should i get air in the tent otherwise? Any other option will bring light in the tent.

I did my research and i saw youtube videos, there is a hole, but just in the bigger tents, not in the small one and i didnt knew that.

Was just offering a simple solution, I only use a tube with hepa filter but every grow situation is different.
The passive air intakes are a joke in my eyes. Waiting for the day when Mars Hydro will sell a light trap for them, made out of plastic for just 99,99 :biggrin:

Couple of duct spigot plates should fix the tent. Fix one using the 4 bolt holes. Then the other to the bolts using nuts. Then slice out the main hole. It's cheap kitchen extraction stuff

Hard to see, but top right we see one fixed, after the tent was first gaffer taped. You see it again behind the ladder. You may not want the flange inside also, but it fits, and offers a means to deliver the air more precisely. You could save a couple of euro's and make a board instead. Or even two boards, with a 85mm hole, for 100mm helical duct to screw in. The duct is your light control. So some thin white pvc won't really work.

You want a bit both inside and out, to sandwich the tent. Anything less probably won't work
