Which light for my rectangle space?
Hey guys I have a closet of 5'L x 2'W x 9'H
I was wondering which light would be best for this rectangle space, and how many plants do u think I should try to fit? not sure if i should try see of green or just place em on floor. any suggestions?
My choices are... http://www.elights.com/switbalsyssu.html

Im thinking the first link is the better light, but ive been hearing about this "cool tube". If u guys know a better one, plz tell :}
Anyhow, this is my first grow, and im looking to get something close to the best for my space. Im also ordering the B/w Poly to partition off the closet. Still not too sure about ventilation yet. I have a air purifier with a ioniozer and carbon filter on it. I was thinking about placing that in the grow room.

They are all about the same in my book. At least the insides are. I dig the cheap ones myself. My first ballasts were home made with no covers. Sure I lost the feeling in my arm a couple times when I touched the 1000 watt coils by acident but they worked fine.

thx for the replys. I guess neither is better for a rectangle room. Ill prob go with the first one. And sparrow.... ouch baby... ouch... :( Ive seen alot of cautionary tales on these boards. I think im gonna get me rubber gloves out or something all the time :P Im gonna look like some steel worker going in and out of my grow room lol
Being a first time grower, do u guys know how many i should plant in that space. I was thinking about the SOG. but for a first timer, it seems hard.
I figured that i would plant 12. my guess is some will die, some will be male. so I might be left with 6. Ive searched but couldnt find what an average yield of 6 plants would be under a 400w mh for veg and switch to 400 hps for flower. {considering I might grow comercial bag seed for my first attempt.}
My goal is to get a half pound every harvest. Is this unreasonable for 6 bag seed plants? also im assuming each harvest will be 90 days. But thats just what im hearing on the boards. Some talk about harvest each 30 days, but i dont understand that. As I understand it, its 1 month veg, then 2 months flower. or mabye my math is incorrect. So in a two stage system, what happends to the plants that have just vegged for a month? becasue they cant go into the flowering chamber cause the others still have a month of flowering.
p.s. Ive tried to reasearch everything, but forgot all about my NUTES :P any suggestions? Beginning to end?
THX TONS for any info.

Trust me, ive searched. Ive honestly been reading posts for a few hrs a day each day for a few days. And im still reading hehe.
I just wanted to ask some more specific questions. And yes, I know the nutes question was pretty broad :}
Welp I went out and got the 400w econo cool with american switchable ballast. Some b/w poly and some lightning reflective stuff. kinda like mylar.
Next step is to build my pvc palace :thumbsup:
