    ventilation problems

    I misread the dimensions of your grow area. Mine are actually almost identical - 2 1/2'W x 2'D x 4'H, and a very similar setup. I only have one passive intake near the bottom, one exhaust hole near the top with a fan from a broken microwave blowing out the warm air, and a small cheap fan on...

    First, I would lower the lights to an inch from the plants. Then try taking the fan out of your intake (or just don't turn it on) to make it a "passive intake". And use only one fan to circulate air around the plants. That exhaust fan looks plenty big enough to suck the warm air out of that...

    Microwave Fan for Exhaust?

    We had a microwave that died a few years ago, and today I decided to experiment. I pulled out the fan, connected the two wires coming out of it to an old lamp cord, plugged it in, and voila, it works! I've been looking for a cheap exhaust fan for my grow cabinet (4'H x 2.5'W x 2'D) and I'm...
