Imma get back to my Indoor "roots" and I am lookin to see everyone's opinion on the best size setup for a 4x4 Area in a Closet(not tryin to go over w/dimensions) and What materials to construct it from. Just lookin to have a SOG setup w/CFL/LED Lighting, w/ 6-12 ladies, depending on how soon uncle gets his rec. Hope to get great feedback :thumbsup: :jointsmile:

I would get a General Hydroponics Eurogrower & a Lumigrow ES LED growlight (330 watts) You should also take a good look at the new GrowLab indoor grow tents. Top quality shite mane! :rastasmoke:

The 4" combo can fan will work great full blast or a 6" with the speed control on it which is cheap and makes a huge difference (they are loud all the way up) an even better fan imo would be the Vortex fan if it's available where you are shopping, they are much quieter than Can Fan but 6" is the smallest they make I think and no combo with the Can filter, definitely get a speed control too. Just exhaust right out of the tent with it and the hot air is going to go out through the carbon filter and cool air intake from the bottom vents..what are these LED panels you are going with? I hope they are'nt those cheap chinese ones man, big waste of time and money with very small yield...you might be better off with a procyon 100 for $550 - $595 (equal to about 250 watts HID) if the Lumigrow ES led light is too much money at $1299 (really equal to nearly 600 watts HID) worth every frickin' penny though both of them. Way better than 1 watt panels. Keep in mind your space would need at least 2 procyons or one Lumigrow ES to effectively illuminate that area of 4 x 2.

much luck with your grow my friend!.i would like to propose something 2 u that some one on here opend my eyes 2.builiding your own hut.recently my doc gave me a mucho increase in my limits for my medical needs.i have an established 5x10 grow room. top of the line all the way around,but im lazy and dont want to redo my veg room.annnyyy who.u can build any size room u want out of pvc and panda film.my goal is to build 5x7 veg room.its super simple and will save u a fuck load of cash,the only down side is its not as thick "no canvas" as a grow tent would be but u set the standards.originally i bought 1 1/4 pvc and fittings "super heavy,stronger than the shitty rods u get with grow tents" and bought enough material to build a 10x10 room for under 45 bucks plus the panda film.u can make it to your own specs at a 1/4 of the cost.i dont really have a point but by making your own tent it would leave u the cash 2 invest in other things. after all this is not a cheap hobby if u want to do it right:D

The 225 LED panels, if they are the same as the ones I had are worse than useless. They were about a foot square and about 15 watts a piece, and all they did was make my plants s-t-r-e-t-c-h even though they were basically touching the panels! If it's them you are thinking of, please don't waste your money! :hippy:

Get the 300 watt equiv. CFL from home depot in 2700k, think they use 68 watts each and produce 4200 lumens. Big ones, right by the HPS bulbs. Standard socket built in ballast, uses a regular holder, etc. :thumbsup:
Bright as hell and what you need to supplement that LED with to work great.
