Ok slight change of plans with a few questions. Changing the cabinet for mothers and clones.
I have purchased a 4x4X6.7' Gorilla GGL Lite tent. Pick it up this week.
I still plan on going vertical but increasing it to 5 plants because I think 5 fits the tent better then 4.
This will give me about 28" between screens so, about 14" from the light to each screen. Will my 400W Eye Hortilux Super HPS be enough light? I am hoping to get by with it as I won't have the funds to go to a 600W till after the first of the year.
Also, I have both 2 gallon and 3 gallon smart pots, 5 of each, which size is recommended? I know the 3 gallon will produce overall larger root balls thus larger plants but have read of people using coco in 2 gallon that were very happy with the results, The 3 gallon will require more water and nutes so cost is also a factor.
Does anyone hang their cooling fan or is it sat on top of something to the height needed. From what I have read, you do not need a large powerful fan, just a lite breeze blowing the heat away but not so much power that it forces the heat back to the lower part of the tent,???
Do I need any other fan in the tent for air circulation?
Thanks
