Ventilation in Indoor Cannabis Grows
Outdoors, when you grow cannabis there are air currents that can cause heat to dissipate and help avoid serious issues in your plants. If you plan on growing indoors, you’ll need to create these air currents as well as renew the air; extract hot air and replace it with cooler, fresh air in order to properly grow your plants. Ventilation in indoor grows is essential in order to maintain the right humidity, temperature and air quality in the room or tent.
Ventilation in Indoor Cannabis GrowsVentilation is essentially renewing and/or recirculating air in an indoor grow; the air in the room or grow tent needs to have certain humidity, temperature and CO2 levels for plants to grow correctly.
On the one hand, you’ll need to get rid of the hot air using an extractor or various extractors, pushing in cold air using an AC unit if needed or an extractor that’s taking in air from outside. You’ll also need to use fans to create air currents within the room so that the conditions are similar to outdoors, avoiding hot pockets of air and keeping your plants happier.
