I learned to grow in a 2' x1.5' locker and could get 5.5oz's with 1 plant. The plant couldn't be over 2 feet high.
Do I need venting for a 2x2 tent with a 250 watt ballast

Do you have this LED? Does it hook into a timer or is a timer built into it already?? How far you got to get this from the top of the plants?
Isn't 3-4 oz's bad for a 4x4 area??

That's what my buddy pulls out his spot in the closet with the bp1000. I can pull 1lb+ out the 4x4 no problem lol.
I ended up buying a 32"x32" tent 32''x32''x64'' Grow Tent Indoor Hydroponics Box Horticulture 3'x3' Growing Room | eBay
And went with the LED that was the next step up from what you recommended. Bloom Plus 1500W LED Grow Light Sunlike Full Spectrum Indoor Plants Veg Flower 686494422025 | eBay
So a slightly bigger tent and a slightly bigger LED. Do you think the above LED is big enough??
I can pull 1LB too in a 4x4 with a good yielding strain.

How are you pulling pounds when you don't seem to know anything about lighting, ventilation or tents? ps. That Bloom Plus LED you bought is made for a 23" x 23" tent.
Any enclosed fan device and a bit of tubing can supply you with the air flow you need.
This is a HEPA of filter with the HEPA filter removed which gives it incredible air flow with a bit of tube duct taped to where the air comes out. I push that through the vent in the tent.

Pull air out or push it in, either way. On my tent I pull out from the tent and push the exhaust through a carbon filter. I want to keep the pressure negative in the tent, so everything leaving the tent goes through the filter.
Its equivilant to a 400 HID.... I get 1/2 pound off of 1 plant in a 3x3 using a 400hps with no veg time in the tent in DWC... My tent is like 30"x30" that LED will be fine.
DO I need LED glasses for this? I will only be exposed to the BP1500 for a few mins a day... Can I just use my HPS glasses??

Was thinking the same thing, just trying to be nice. It's OK to be new at stuff and ask questions. No need to try and bs everyone.
Who is bull-shiting??
Is the BP1500 I got too small for my 30"x30" tent??
