Room lighting help

[think2toke]

Im going to be creating a new grow room. The room itself is 8' by 10'.

Im only going to be using about 3/4 of the room with 24 plants under a multiflow bucket system.

How much light would i need to get the fullest yield i can for that many plants.

Wow i was thinking around the lines of 2000 watts,

I think 2 1000w systems with one carbon filter going to a V connector, in to the lights, and then out, routed in to another V connector, and then exausted with one hefty exaust fan would be great.

.....or 2 1000w systems, open on the non-socket end, both light routed to a sealed box, with the carbon filter inside, with the exaust fan pulling from the box. You may need a couple of small boosters in the ducting coming off the light in to the box.
