Get the t6 I got my t4 from amazon and def keep atleast a small osilating clip fan on to move the air around inside the tent the phresh filters have a really good rep last quiet awhile also the hlg 100 vegs a 3x3 and flowers a 2x2 sorry if I said it the other way around there only around 150$ and its 640 ppfd at 12 inches and 420 ppfd at 18 inches you could use it as just a veg light then upgrade to a larger one when you get a bigger tent they are white light full spectrum the burple is just the cheapo China lights unless it a 12band like the kind lights which allows you to specifically tune the spectrum to what you need at that point of growth but there insanely expensive..

Sweet thats awesome! You def wont have to worry about not having enough ventilation. It's nice tho you wont need any ac for the spring/winter/fall months with that setup I'd leave the t6 set at 75° your good to go I really want one of those t6s! lol

You just connect the 6inch ducting with the hose clamp right to the in flow and out flow side of the fan just make sure you face it the right way could hang the filter with ratchet hangers it's not hard if you get stumped just look up grow tent ventilation on youtube

@Mikesem420 i have the ipower for the canister, or are you saying add it in the middle for extra rather then intake?

You said you ordered a t6 and an ipower 6 right?if so use the t6 as your exhaust with the filter like I showed you I did with my 6. the ipower 6 you can use as an intake on the floor outside the tent

@Mikesem420 correct, but mike didnt you say it ran little warm when you had your can hooked up? The ipower moves 440 cfm the t6 is only like 350 cfm ill test both ways and see which regulates better

That's a good call what size is you tent again?that t6 does have a lower rating but I have a feeling it runs alot better with the pwm motor but ya a comparison cant hurt try both ways see what works better for ya.

@Pennywise so last sunday is when i flipped and did last rez change with grow nutes, i did trim some of the lower branches and fan leaves to allow branches to get light. I also did my best attempt at LST. I have an issue like i thought running out of vertical space. The branch and leaves that are tallest kind of scared to try and attempt at bending it again cause it cracked where the main stem Y (split) looks like it repaired quickly thought. But im open to suggestions, and a light is not an option right this second just ordered all that yesterday.

Your best bet is to super crop the tallest branches.

Gently squeeze the branch where you want it to bend and gently bend it in the direction you want it to go. Take your time and be gentle. Your goal is to have a flat even canopy. It’s not to late to super crop. The tops will turn up towards the light in a few hours and it will heal quickly. It can increase the branches ability to take up more water and nutrients

Next time you use that tent try the fimming road it produces lots of tops short bushes I havent done any super cropping to my girls yet so if you do I'm here to see how it goes!
