36x20 AC infinity tent

4in Ac infinity carbon filter

4in Ac infinity exhaust

Spider farmer sf1000d grow light

Fox farm ocean soil and 3 pack nutrients

Circulating fan and ppm and pH tester coming.

What I want to know is concerning the grow light and what percentage and height should I do in the beginning once sprouted and any other advice and tips for a first time grower. Want to do 2 Purple Kush Auto in this set up. Summer grow in garage with temps between 95 and 65. Midwest. Any help will be greatly appreciated.

Bought your audiobook and it made things less scary after watching others on YouTube. Thanks for that.

@Mr. Grow It No sorry. I am waiting on seeds just being proactive. Setting up everything today to get ready for when they do. 3 gallon pots. Says they grow to about 3 ft so I think I'm gonna have filter and fan outside the tent to be sure I got enough height. Got two clip on fans that don't oscillate. Should be fine right? Nervous for this grow so I appreciate the help and huge fan of the audiobook. Will be listening again and again probably.

Look into a mini split or a full blow air conditioner of some sort. 90's in temp is way too high. Highest I go is 83 at leaf temp. 76-79 at lights off or 'sunset' Massive swings in temp will have a detrimental effect on yield and can bring a slew of other problems

@Creager thanks for the reply. I didn't mention those are the range of temps I can expect outside the tent for summers here. My fault. With auto controls for exhaust and some fans I'm still concerned that it's gonna be really hot for the 36x20x60 tent but I could just be paranoid. Will look into a/c. Will probably go lights out during the hottest part of the day. Thanks for the

I do around 20 to 24 inches from canopy but the light should have the recommendation for height or there par chart on the website are you going to be running an ac in tent 95 seems awful high but im still new as well so im still learning

@dgreen2178 thanks for the reply. Sorry, I meant that those temps are the range outside the tent that I can expect for summers here. I will of course keep the temps to recommended inside if I can. Hopefully the fans and auto controls for exhaust can do that but not sure. Tested the light and just seems extremely bright for the 36x20x60 tent I got. Thanks again and good luck.
