Anyone use S & K vents for plastic gourds?

[Joe W]

Does anyone have any feed back or experience with the S & K vents? They claim they work just like the turbine roof ventilator on your home. The are currently half price at 99 cents each, if they work that seems like a bargain. I’m planning on installing PVC elbow vents on my S & K gourds in the next few weeks....but this seems like a good solution if the work. The reviews are mixed so any recommendations from the PM Forum is appreciated.

I’m in NW Florida and it gets plenty hot!

Thanks, Joe.

I hate to be the first to reply to my own topic....but I see that S & K also has the Cooling Caps for my BO 11P gourds. They are also 99 cents, seems like a great deal and there are great reviews from lots of users. Thanks!

I use the cooling caps on my S&K gourds and the seem to work fine.

Thanks! I just ordered the caps.

You may want to call and add the screw on access adapters to your order. Part # OTRA @ $2.00 each. They work great compared to the standard snap on covers.

i went with the caps, I just dont see how water wouldn't get into those vents you posted....plus they look bad.
