had some fun designing my new grow room with a completely stealthy design. fan noises are disguised by normal household applicances. the door to the room is hidden behind a shelf ...pics

 

[desertrat]

all four ww's germinated and i planted in 16 oz cups today under fluorescents. will switch to 160 watts of cfl for seedlings before going to the 600 watt mh.

two of four carmelicious germinated but waiting a day or two for the other two.

still finishing the grow room. needs:
repair water line
finish exhaust for the light and ac
bring in additional electricity

Nice set-up. I am finishing off my flower room, which is the same size as yours. I was thinking of putting either 2x 600w HPS or 2x 1000w HPS with inline cooling. I have an A/C in the room and 2x 400 cfm fans (one pushing, one pulling) for the lights. I have to decide which lights and I am interested in your input. (I have the heat venting under the house, where I have 20' deep well, so heat disposal is not an issue). Thoughts?

look at this and then ask any questions

With inline cooling, I should be able to bring the lights down to about 12-18", or am I going to cook the plants?

i have my 600 about 8" from the plants

 

[desertrat]

planted two carmelicious seeds today. other two have not germinated - seeds look smaller and immature

 

[desertrat]

three of four ww seeds sprouted today. growing sprouts under 3 15 watt ffuorescents, will switch to mh in a couple of weeks. the last two carmelicious seeds still have not germinated. bought insulated ducting to test for sound reduction. a/c keeping room temp constant.

put seedlings under 600 watt mh raised about 5' from plants since they are young. wanted to test the light and ac before switching veg and flower rooms.

5 seedlings now - all four ww and 1 carmelicious
2 planted but not sprouted carmelicious
1 carmelicious failed to germinate.

turned off the 600 mh as the seedlings were drying out to fast. now on the 4 cfl;s that were supplementing my first grow.

all four white widow seeds and one of the carmelicious seedlings have sprouted and all are about 3" tall.
