First Indoor Grow Setup Questions

[Bataleon420]

Hello!
Back on the posts, and ready to grow. I have grown a few seasons outdoors, but when it comes to indoor I just dont know where to start. I have read up on the matter, have a fair amount of knowledge, but I am looking from a little help from some expert veterans on here...

So here is the deal. I live in a townhome, so the smell factor is very important. Neighbors are all very chill mountain folk, but still, I dont need to take any chances.

The rooms dimensions are roughly 10x9, the ceiling is 8 feet tall, and I have a large, long closet which is 2x8. I am looking at growing a setup of 24 plants, and am planning on using two 600w lamps. Basically, I am just looking for what I will need to have a well functioning grow room. I feel oblivious about all this, so please bear with me.
I am picking up two Extrasun 600w high pressure sodium lights, 2 osculating fans, 24 pots, nutrients, soil medium, floor covering, reflective wall covering...all the basics.
I have no idea what kind of ventilation system to get, how to set it up, and whatever else I need to start this up. The room has a large sliding glass door, so I am not sure how I would manage to take air in, or put air out. I dont really know how to setup the filters, or what I would have to do in order to get the wiring hooked up for everything I need. Basically, if someone had some time on the their hands, I would really, really appreciate someone giving me some tips on what they think I would need in order to have a sucessful high yielding 24 plant setup.
Thank You so much, I really appreciate it guys!

It sounds to me like you are setting up a commercial grow. Not advisable in a townhouse and not really what these forums support...

Consider scaling back to 8 - 12 plants. Much more manageable. If you run a separate veg / mother room you could get a continues harvest setup going whereby you are harvesting every couple of weeks. Your 600w lights will do a much better job with a smaller setup.

Noo, definitely not doing a commercial grow. First off the prices out here range around 35 an 8th due to all the dispensaries, so I wouldn't waste my time trying to make profit. The only reason I am shooting for 24 plants was because beginning of June, im hitting Coachella, Bonaroo, All Good, Electric Daisy Carnival, Outside Lands, Wanderlust, Wakarusa, Shambhala, and Global project. Im basically going to be living at festivals, and I wanted to have enough bud to keep me happy the entire summer! But maybe I should set my sights down a bit. The main question I wanted answered was what would be the size/kind of ventilation system I would need to use in order to have my place not reek.

Read through the link on fan sizing in my signature. I've run it through with a number of users. Do the math, post it up, and I'll check it for you.
