Hello,
I just completed my first grow in my basement. It was a decent success and we cultivated two types of very great strength, but low yield per watt. The room is amazing and keeps a very steady temperature very easily and has adequate space. We grew 15 plants in 3 trays, on a standard ebb and flow system under two 1000 watt HPSs. I used a friends set up in order to have a dry run without putting in too much of an initial investment and some tutelage. Now I am looking forward to doing it alone with a new, better thought out (with this boards help I hope) design.
the space I would like to use is 6'x9' (or 5'x9') but only 6' floor to ceiling high. I think this is where my friends set up lacks sophistication. Our last grow had horrible larfing on the tops and was way to close to the lights. I would like to use a scrog method to maximize the floor space and minimize the effects of the low ceiling.
I would also like to run this set up with lower wattage lights and be able to rotate in vegetables like kales and tomatoes, lets go sustainable everyone. Any thoughts on what would work best would be greatly appreciate.
The room has great ability for ventilation and kept great temperature and low smell, the room itself was a remarkable success. Im my time in this house it has been used for many things but this has been the most positive by far. I am also a prop 215 legal patient with growers certificates, thank you California voters.
