Good ventilation is the secret that took one indoor grower’s harvest to the next level. Learn why airflow and the right equipment can turn small, sickly plants into big, healthy winners - and how you can do it too.
The Client’s Problem: High Humidity and Weak Airflow
- Humid, sticky air inside the tent
- Poor airflow that made some plants look droopy and others grow fungus
- Yields that were much lower than expected, and lots of wasted energy
A post from a grower online matched this story:
“The RH [relative humidity] in the room shot to 70% in a matter of days and I started getting mildew. Had to redo the whole setup just for air!” - Reddit
The Solution: Installing Fans, Purifiers, and Ducting
- Hung an exhaust fan with a carbon filter at the top of the tent to pull out hot, humid air
- Placed an intake fan near the base to bring in fresh air from outside
- Added an oscillating fan inside to keep air moving between the plants - no more dead, “stale” spots
- Sealed all connections tightly using ducting for maximum efficiency
The setup used fans and carbon filters just like those available from purennatural.com, optimized for tent or commercial rooms. You can complement that setup with CleanLeaf air filtration options from our Grow Room Air Purifiers collection to keep dust, spores, and odors at bay.

Results: Improved Crop Health, Less Mold, +20-30% Higher Yield
- Mold and mildew disappeared in just one week
- Plants grew stronger, stood tall, and leaves stayed crisp - not limp
- The grower saw 20-30 percent more harvest by weight, with top-quality buds and vegetables
This is what happens when you combine good ventilation with air purification from our Grow Room Air Purifiers collection.
