    3x2 Closet FFOF Multistrain Autoflower Scrog

    Next time, make sure to water the seedlings around the stem, so you don't get stem rot, and don't over water them. Use a spray bottle, it looks to me your overwatering your seedlings. Let them go through a wet and dry cycle before watering them again. If you overwater the seedlings, there won't...

    3x2 Closet FFOF Multistrain Autoflower Scrog

    You should be using a 250 watt HPS for a closet that size(3x2). I alway's prefer HPS over MH. The HPS bulbs provide more lumens/watt than a MH bulb. Ed Rosenthal recommends just using the HPS throughout the entire grow cycle.

    3x2 Closet FFOF Multistrain Autoflower Scrog

    What kind of lighting are you using (HID,CFL,LED) and what wattage bulb? Just curious? You don't want to overheat the plants and I hope you have ventilation in the closet, or CO2 supplementation if no ventilation.

    I agree with you completely!! Horizontal reflectors distribute the most light. I like Hydrofarm horizontal reflectors personally.

    Galaxy is an excellent ballast, however, my choice would be to go with the new "Nanolux" Digital Ballast. Google it for more info. It's the best ballast on the market today in my opinion.

    I thought the average BTU recommendations are 4000-4500 BTU's per 1000 watts of light. Therefore, if I were using 4-600 watts of HPS, that's 2400 watt's total. So, if you do the math, 12000 BTUS of a mini split A/C would do the trick, right? 22,000 BTU's sounds crazy. Please correct me if I'm wrong!

    400w 600w 1000w 8x8 or 10x10 area

    The ideal reccomendation is 40 watts/sq.ft. of space. So, say you have an 8'x8' room for example, you multiply 8'x8'= 64sq.ft. That means you would need 64sq.ft. x 40 watts/sq.ft.=2,560 watts. So, the best choice I believe is to go with 4-600 watt lights as they are more effecient, you can place...
