Thanks for reading this. The below is what I am looking at purchasing. Your input is much appreciated. The setup laid out below is a tad over $2000.

Grow room is part of a walk in closet. The back wall measures 94 inches. I plan to vent scrubbed air into the attic. This will be for soil. I am set on soil and LED.

Flowering

  • Sun Hut 2x4 tent that is really 35.5in x 54
  • 2 Area 51 190's
  • Yo Yo's
  • Carbon Filter
  • 6in Vortex fan
  • Fan speed adjuster
  • Duct silencer
  • 6 in clip on fan (no oscillation so maybe by a second and place on opposite ends?)
  • Ducting will be purchased local

Mother/clones/seedlings
  • Hydrohut 3x3 that is really a 40in x 40 so he two tents side by side se every inch of space. I will flush up the fronts and the extra 6in behind I can hide the electric. Height has a variation also that work out well for hiding some ducting to my attic.
  • 2 Hydrofarm EnviroGro T5 2FT 2 Tube Fixture w/6400K bulbs - I figured 1 in back for a couple moms and one in front for dome/heatmat. I can adjust heights a needed.
  • Another 6 in fan
  • Venting I was going to t off the mother tent somehow. I have a couple ideas.

Other


  • Hygrometer (single unit with 3 remote sensors. one with babies, one moms, one flowering chamber
  • Moisture meter
  • PH meter (soil)
  • 30x magnifying glass
  • Ona Gel
  • Bubble bags? Still researching harvesting

Local
  • Duct work
  • Nutes
  • Pots
  • Soil
  • ducting
  • Velcro - For tent flaps as these are not the best no light tents
  • Aready have all the pruning items

Wow you made it to the end! Well since you're here what's your opinion the amount of plants to fit in the flower tent? If you go by 1 per sqft that would be a dozen plants. Seems high but I'm high and a noob so what do I know :)

Yeah I would definitely start with some basics, make sure you can grow one room of plants from start to finish, and end with good product. instead of 2 or 3 at the get go as it all can be very complicating if you dont know what your getting into. I like the go for LEDs and Soil, as i also use these two methods for growing. If you are growing with soil, definitely go organic!
