Trying to start a grow box

[Bwpz]

Here's my basic blueprint. The ducting leads to my AC.

My main question is how much lighting would I need for Veg and Flower, for just one plant? Like how many watts would be good for each? Thanks

Also, it's a 12x12 box, you think that's big enough?

 

[Bwpz]

After doin' some more readin, it seems the 12x12 isn't big enough of a size, even for one lil plant. How about 18x18 or 22x22? I just want one plant, that'll yield maybe an oz or a lil less.

for me its big enough
the realiton is 400w in 3 sqared feet

400w? Are you going by the incandescent equal?

 

[Bwpz]

How's this one look, should i change the Wattages or would this be good?

Your not gonna get an OZ from that.

Thanks for the input, I've seen people get 1-2 oz, but not sure if it was in a 12x12 box or if it was bigger xD Like I said, what would help? More light? Bigger box? I mean of course those two factors would help, but what amount to get around an oz? Like a 22x22 box with another 2-4 lights?

A lot more lights, if you are trying to pull an OZ I recommend making full use of your box. Got the biggest pot you possibly can fit and LST hard and keep the lights close.

How's that? They'd be 2700k for Veg and 6500k for Flower.

I'm doing the wine method. Mix water, fruit concentrate, sugar and yeast into a mason jar, and use a twin bubble air lock on the lid to let out the co2, and make wine in the process There's a thread on here about it, pretty interesting. Some say it barely provides any co2, but some is better than none xD

 

[ganja father]

what kind of fruit concentrate and is there any other methods that create mor Co2

Well in my method taste is a factor. If you just wanted to create co2 you could remove the fruit and add more yeast/sugar. And the kind of fruit concentrate I use is the kind that's like in the freezer section, the Welch's can things.

I use FF's lineup of soil and nutes, along with superthrive koolbloom and molasses.

 

[Bwpz]

So do you think that would produce an oz?

 

[Indicia]

If you Lst I do not see why not. Just time will be the factor. Also the Duct will be hooked up to your AC unit? Umm well watch your temps. Also, what about exhaust?

I will be LSTing, and I was gonna watch my temps and just have it hooked to the ac if it got too warm. I didn't figure an exhaust would be necessary for such a small grow, the duct will be just sittin there chillin when the ac isn't running through it, that should do it xD
