Very impressive first grow~ Subscribed - please keep posting.

very well-planned setup, it's obvious you did your homework :thumbsup: ... most newbies plant their seeds, and THEN try to figure out how to do it :D ... how large is your growroom (square feet) ? ... :smokin:

Thanks man. My grow space is about a 5x5 area. Ran into a few issues with ventilation originally, but I got that 1000w under control.

Wow! That's one hell of a setup you've got there bro! Props, man.

Sweeeet bro!

Nice. Please describe your ventilation problems and how you got them under control...

Well originally when I installed my 1000w I thought a inline 425 c.f.m fan dedicated to air cooling the lamp would be enough, but temps were still far from optimal. I then got a dedicated ac for my grow room and I also created better ventilation by creating a exhaust port and installing a 250 c.f.m inductor. All these things make it possible to keep temps to 76 degrees during lights on and 68 degrees during dark. Efficiency in air flow went down when I added my carbon filter but temps are still good.

You've got a nice looking setup there, SRH, very similar to mine. I'm interested to see how things turn out for you.
