Setting up an indoor cabinet grow. Any suggestions on my plan

[mas3372]

Hello,

I will be starting a legal medicinal grow. I have a smaller area to work with. 4ft wide x 3 ft deep x 5 feet high. Basement with constant room temp of 60 degrees. This is what I plan on doing.

Construction-Split the box so I have a 2.5'W x 3'D bloom room the whole height of the box. On the other side, make 2 levels, one for the moms down bottom and one for the clones up top. Mylar

Mothers-idealy I would like to fit 4 mothers in the 1 ft x 3ft area. 4 different strains. CFL Lighting. Soil under 18/6

Clones- Top shelf. Large enought to hold 8 cuttings under CFLs before going to bloom. Rockwool in humidity dome under 18/6 hours.

Bloom Room-7.5 square ft. 37 cubic feet. 4 plants in 5 gallon buckets with DWC. Hydroton rock around rockwool. 400 watt HPS with ballast mounted outside grow room. Airpumps with stones. No top drip unless you think otherwise.

Method-Short stocky strains that grow fairly straight. Add a plant every 2 weeks and harvest in or around every 8 weeks so I have a constant harvest every 2 weeks of one plant. Put the cuttings in veg for 2 -3 weeks to achieve 1 foot hieght before bloom.

Strains- I want a variety but have hieght restrictions. I need plants that mature out nicely at 24-26 inches tall. White Widow, a Kush strain, a blueberry maybe. Any suggestions keeping with 8 week cycle and 26inch height.

Ventilation-150cfm cage fan (51.5 cubic foot room) exhausing the a draw off the hood with intake holes on the bottom and 2 inch pvc vent holes between 3 chambers (bloom, mom, clone).

General Hydroponic nutes.

Misc. Supplies
PH Meter
Magnafine glass

Please offer any help or suggestions...I want to do this right the first time.

Thanks, Mike
