Hi all,

I am looking for suggestions. I have read so many posts I don't know what direction to take.

I am working with a crawl space that is only 48" high.

I want to make a 4'w x 8'l x 4'd box out of plywood and 2x4's. The inside will be styrofoamed and all corners sprayfoamed followed by white plastic or mylar with 6" pots to grow SOG (I think).

Computer fans for ventilation and a carbon scrubber for odour.

Post will be soil and a mix of manure and vermiculite.

The lighting would be (1) 250w MH for veg and (1) 250w HPS for flower.

The pots will sit in a 2 x 4 water basin and apparently I can water them from the bottom up rather than top down. (Can anyone shed some light on this for me)


Am I on the right track?????
Is my lighting going to be adequate for the square footage???
If I veg until the plants are 24" and trip them into flower will they grow much higher???? (I don't want them to touch the lamp)
Can anyone suggest a strain??

I am a first time budder so any help would be greatly appreciated.

I have many more questions but will read more of the posts here and wait for any answers or direction you can point me in.

Thanks for some great ideas and suggestions in this community.

Me.
