how tall does a scrog cab need to be?

[homestar]

i'm really trying to go unnoticed here, not really that stealth, just can't be 8 feet tall. i'm definitely going the scrog route...just can't seem to find good plans for a micro scrog box. as small as possible, if i could grow 2 plants at a time i would be happy. how small are we talking, is this even possible?

Givin proper room for light height, etc... you can scrog or LST and get 10" kolas. Do an advanced search on scrog, I did one on that and LST I think.

I screwed them both up so theres some valuable lessons. But the result was kick ass. 4 - 5 feet is very doable.

good luck on your tomatos.

if you are planning using to plants you want your scrog to be 4ft by 2ft that gives the plants 2ft of space each but scrog can be done in v shapes actually they can be done in any shape desined to fit your needs hope it helps the postman.

i had a scrog cab that was 2ft deep x 2ft wide x 32inches tall and the yeild on it was 4-5oz with 1 or 2 plants

What kind of lighting do you plan on using.....has alot to do with the height.

Have a good grow!:thumbsup:

well i'm not sure, still researching the lighting...what do you guys recommend for such a small box (justaseed...my box will probably be about your size, what lights did you use?)

250 hps sound's right what i was wondering is
could you use a 400 hps they are about the same price.
would any one know if that would work out o.k.
thank's

that might be a lot of heat for such a small area...although, don't cooltubes help? it would be awesome if i could stick a 400w in a cooltube...hmm

also can someone answer, how many different lights will i need? i've read so much over the last 2 weeks but i'm still unsure. let's say i start from a clone, so right there we can say that i won't need a different light to get a seed to sprout...? really if i start from a clone all i would need would be a 250w or so and make it so that it can move up and down...? that light would get me through veg and flowering stages?

my cab was actually a double so there were 2 chambers side by side that each measured 2' x 2' 32". 1 had a 150 hps and 4 42watt cfls the other side had a 125 vitelume cfl 4 42watt cfls and a 65watt aquarium strip cfl. here are some old pics of the set up. i've posted them before but i think you will appreciate the set-up anyway!
