I have recently split my grow room into 2 rooms I moved 2 1000 watt mh/hps set ups into each room, I purchased an 8500 btu air conditioner dehumidifier with a fresh air intake. I am running a 15 by 8 foot net, and 8, 10 gallon cloth pots custom made to leave airspace between the pots. I have my cool tubes running on a closed loop meaning they will pull air from another climate controlled room and exhaust it while never moving the air around within the grow room, this will be my first scrog grow I want a big yield I'm not concerned with the time it takes to veg I was gonna veg 10 weeks, my question is, since my room is ideal for co2 should I use it or will precise temperatures and humidity combined with large pots using cocoa be enough? Thank everyone for input, I'll be running 4 GDP and 4 AK 47. I will be keeping precise PH levels and monitoring my PPM I am running triple filtered water.

Dude, it's time for a reality check! You're talking about 120 sq. ft. of net space.

For 8 plants, that's 15 sq.ft. of area to cover each. Not very practical.

For 2 1,000 watt lights, that's 60 sq.ft. of area to cover each. You'll need 5 or 6 1,000 watt lights to cover that area properly.

^^^ his math checks out on that. I mean you can do it but youll be wasting space and have smaller buds. Best to cut the size down or add more lights. Also are you going to be doing a 18x5 scrog with 2 lights on either side divided or will there be two 18x5 with two lights each and 4 plants each?
