Critique my grow?

[orion420]

Hey guys, I've done some planning for my first grow and came up with this, I feel it's space efficient for my situation and the best technique for my lifestyle, feel free to add any knowledge to it, tell me it's fine, or destroy it! Just add any criticism in a post, Thanks!


The initial space is;
150cm (width) x 66cm (depth) x 236cm (height)
or
59" (width) x 26" (depth) x 98" (height)

I will divide the cabinet into 2, then having two 118cm/49" compartments. The top compartment will have a 400W HPS Lamp, inside a Diamond Reflector held by Easy-Rolls whilst the bottom compartment will hold a 250W Blue Spectrum CFL. Both of these lights will be ran on timers (HPS on 12/12 and CFL on 18/6).

I will be using two Wilma 8 Pot Systems, having one for flowering and one for veg.

For environmental management I will have a 270m3/h temperature controlled fan using acoustic ducting with a Rhino Pro Filter to eliminate any odours, All attached together using ducting clips.

For media, I will start by using a root riot propagation kit. When the plants are big enough I will transplant them into bigger rockwool cubes, and finally into the 11L Pots filled with Hydroleca clay pebbles. All of the cabinet will be lined with Diamond Reflective Mylar.

I will be using General Hydroponics FloraGro, FloraBloom and Micro for nutrients.

Lastly, I have various tools including a waterproof pH pen, a waterproof EC pen, pH Up, pH Down, a 50ml Syringe, scapels, Clonex, Latex Gloves and a small propagator.

Well sounds like you are at least ready to start. The width is narrow, but if that is all ya have..........

the width is narrow? Really? It's 59 inches across, though it would be enough space?
