It's in a garage. The bedroom might be great if your house has central a/c. The garage gets really hot with exhaust from lights and the a/c venting out of the tent.
With 4 600w in a 10x10 you could almost do 99 in this style at one time, stagger the harvest so you clear off a tray every 2-3 weeks. That will keep you busy, and with a good supply of meds bongsmilie
Yeah I was thinking do 4 under a 600 and split the harvest in two so like each month so hopefully 8 2.5 oz plants a month then after the first soil one mabey try some hydro, I've tried hydro and just feel it would be kinda hard for me to go that big and do something I'm not completly comfortable with soil is a lot easier for me.
Also you have your a/c in your tent? Doesn't it just get vented right out? Or does it still keep the ambient temps outside the tent cool too it's just that you put it n the tent so that it mostly gets the cold air in the tent?
i was thinking I'd put the a/c outside of the tent and try and keep the ambient temps at like 68 so the tents in the mid 70s sorry for the long post man haha.

Doubletree, that's exactly how I use my portable a/c, and it works great. ATB!

Nice man yeah I was thinking try and utilize as much of the inside of the tent as I can and as long as the ambient temps are low it should keep the inside nice, what size a/c do you use I heard you have to go pretty big on the btu to cool the hot lights.

It's only a 9000btu, but I also only run 2 600's. Summer can be a bear though. ATB!

Been busy the past week & 1/2 cutting these down.
I had 4 plants (all UK Cheese) that produced just over an oz dried.
Most of the Cheese and White widow were around 20-25 grams dried.
There were 11 Purple wreck. A weird variety of the strain. Low producer, around 10-14 grams each. 1 only produced 5 grams,,
If all 33 were cheese/white widow, would have been close to 2lbs under 1600 actual watts.
I pulled 22 ounces dry.
The cheese and widow are very dense nugs, and top shelf shit. Very happy with the quality and ease of this grow. Tent worked awesome and I didn't encounter any equip problems or pests/mildew, none of those headaches.

Already been vegging 15 plants, Cheese, Blue Dream, White widow, Shark Attack, for a couple weeks.
Gonna transplant into 3 gallon coco pots tomorrow and veg for another 2-3 weeks. Now I'm going to use all 8 feet of this tent.
I should pull 2-3 zips each for my last grow before vacation.
Thanks everyone who followed. And I gotta get my boys their credit for these killer genetics, www.SanDiegoClones.com
