Sounds good, im gonna post my current plans soon.
im a newbie so i cant give you any advice, but i was wondering are you running 100 watt cfls or 100 watt equivalent cfls?
i was about to switch over to cfls and run that fixture that has two 65 watt cfl bulbs equivalent to 600 watts total output
100 watt equivalent. so around 1000 watts goin on in there with all ten bulbs
Hey I think I replied to your question about the growbox in another thread and just saw the pics you had in this one... It may not be bad right now, but there will be a smell coming from those plants. Have you thought about ventilation and odor control for your growboxes? Luckily you have many options like DIY for cheap or plug and play for $$$.
Plants looked good to me:thumbsup:
Yeah, i've thought about that. i was thinking maybe if i could dissipate the heat the the plans for the lighting i have (picture attached) then i could leave it closed all the time, running some co2 to the plants through a hose contraption.
so my paint program was devilishly hidden deep in my cpu. so, if you're building something from scratch, here's a quick idea.
thanks for that. i was thinking more of a SOG, with 12/12 from the time when the clones take root
kinda like this?
This is my friends hydro setup. He vegged for a week or two, then flowered. I think this is Power Plant from clones (40 clones). He didn't get much out of this, 400grams.
I looked at your drawing again, and I'm thinking about your height issues, but LST or SCROG is great for that... I got a SCROG going right now in my second grow, and it helps a lot to keep my plants in control in my small space.
Another tip, keep those cfl's adjustable. They should always be just an inch or two from the plants. With that setup, the plants will stretch to the light and you will run out of room with skinny plants filling up the area.
I don't know about the sealed room thing... I think the plants will be starving for fresh air (even with the CO2), but I could be wrong. Instead of worrying about heat issues and CO2, its easier to get an exhaust fan+intake hole and get even more cfl's in there. More light will produce bigger buds, aim for at 3000 lumes per sq. ft., preferably over 5000. I'm running at close to 15K Lumens/sq.ft. atm.
yeah i dont know if the closed room would be any good for me, but this is what i was going for, and if it didnt work i could always adjust.

baring in mind 400g's is 14 or so ounces!Quote:
