Hello, nice to meet you all
My boyfriend and I are looking to set up a little home operation for personal enjoyment, and I'd love some feedback on our plans so far, as we have never grown before and could use all the help we can get!
We are planning on growing in our garage, as it's out of the way, and as we are in a rented house, we can't start tearing lumps out of the ceilings and boarding up windows . We have decided to use a growtent, as when we move, we can pack it up and take it all with us.
The equipment we are looking at buying is:
BudBox (large) 1m x 1m x 1.8m
Maxibright Compact 600w with CoolTube
600w sunmaster superHPS (95000 lumens)
RVK 1251A fan + 100mm carbon filter (225m3/hr) + Ducting (EDIT: Upgraded from a slightly weaker fan)
Could anyone tell me if all of this will be suitable for a growtent of that size? I was originally looking at a cheaper 600w light without the cooltube covered light, but read that it would be too hot inside a grow tent. Is it worth spending an extra £30 on the cooltube light?
Also, if anyone has used the budbox, are there adequate venting holes to attach all of these items properly, and in the right place? It's quite hard to find pictures online that show clearly.
Is the fan i mentioned going to create enough air circulation to keep the plants healthy? Or should I add another fan? What kind would be best if so?
We are planning to grow in soil, how many plants could I optimally grow in a 1m x 1m area? Don't want to over fill the area and hamper growth.
Thanks in advance for any help love your site!
