i will take some more tomorrow maybe but heres a better picture of what i want to do.I did see the pictures... but they did not help me "paint the big picture"...
No worries though...
For best results, I would isolate the light... with it's own fan, as well as intake/exhaust...
Keeping the air separate gives you the best heat fighting and temperature control capabilities...
But you can leave on end open in the op... and double that as your exhaust...
You just need to MAKE SURE the fan runs with the light... thus killing some of your temp control... but it requires only one fan...
I would leave the intake passive... and use every last cfm to get rid of the heat.. exhausting it...
...
As for 90F... you will have problems with that...
You can expect a properly ventilated, ENCLOSED grow-op to be 5F warmer than the ambient temperature of the room where the tent/closet is in...
I hope summer IS almost over... or you will have troubles..
What temperatures are your plants seeing right now?
thanks, i'm sure you will be hearing from me very soonBest of luck mate.. keep me posted...
If things start happening and I don't show up.. feel free to send me PM...
I subscribe to a LOT of threads...
how about the 400 and some cfls?
dude you must be on the other side of the lake, your confusing me with the metric measurements!if it was me i'd go with guana soil, biobizz bloom, topmax, bioheaven and use the 400 watt with a 6 inch cooltube and one 125 mm fan. buildit on the one ducting...example : carbon filter-ducting-suckingFanblowinginto-cooltube-ducting-outake(out the top of room if possible) you'll need two small clip in or sway desk fans. with the 400 watt and a cooltube you may still have some heat isues due to the small width so u may need to go 250W as i have tried and tested a very similiar space with 400w and cooltube and temps where 30-32. ideally u be wanting 1metresquared with the above setup that way u will keep 20-25 temps alltime. in winter u will be able to fire in a 600w and may need to use heater during winter nights also. i think u be besy going with soil to start with as hydro can get expensive and if u dont know what your doing can have chain reaction failures.
i have two ancient magnetic ballast at mo but i will be moving to digi next time round to save little bit of energy/money/buyinglamps and i can throw away my MH conversion bulb LOL plus plus plus the digi has a super switch that u can boost 30 percent more energy out of a hps which i would activate on 3rd week of flowering
sounds good man, you can't go wrong with soil. make sure its a good brand tho with all the goodies init that way you can feed the plants water ONLY rite up till 2ndor 3rd week of flower then u can fire in some bloom feed, bloom boost & plant stimulator.dude you must be on the other side of the lake, your confusing me with the metric measurements!
so i'm buying a 400w system with a 6" cooltube from HTG supply
i have two 4" desktop fans which i will be using to push fresh air in and circulate air around the grow room.
i just put an A/C in so the temps are staying real low.
i wont have any money to put in a 600w in the winter, although it would be nice...
the 400w will be plenty though. plus a bunch of 30w and 42w cfls
i have to use soil anyways because i can't afford a hydro set up right now
but as soon as i get the money i'm switching over, maybe i will win the lottery or something?
i definitely have the knowledge, i am certain.
a digi would be nice, but again, i don't have the money...
i won't need a MH conversion bulb because i am using cfls as well. i want to stick with just the HPS for now
it's pretty much your choice...
