Continuous grow - Starting from scratch
T5's are what several people here use either in conjunction with (HID) or exclusive to. I prefer the T5's, easier to hide because of electrical pull and heat generation. 65000 lumens in a small closet keeps it around 85 - not bad…..3 fans run and keep it cooled to around 80….
Now on smell- I am NOT the right person to ask - I am currently trying to prove( we'll see) that smell is the plants way of trying to communicate with us. What I mena by that is the smell is the plant telling us it needs something - water, food, attention, worship…..
I find that if I cater to my plants needs - including the amount of fussing they want over them- they don't smell much - If I leave and don't check on em all day- A LOT of smell…this is all based on some pretty old theories - 'the secret lives of plants' and another video I saw on 'how plants communicate with us'. I am finding this works with even the smelliest varieties -smell seems to be the plants way of talking to us - I don't use filters, I want to hear what they are saying and so far I am being successful - but most people think it's crazy….there are a lot of people here that can help you with smell in the traditional way and be sure and read the thread on the T5's vs. HPS….it will really impress you - it did me!
Good Luck and happy growing!
