Hey there!
One of my first posts here... truly godsend community this is!
So as the title implies, I'm determined to build my first growbox. As informed as I am I still need some feedback from you guys so that my op goes as trouble-proof as possible.
Now some general info on what I'm planing to do.
Dimensions:
60 inch tall
about 20 inch deep
and about 23-25 inch wide...
2 compartments (rooms ) - veg and flowering, while veg being 11/20/25 and for flowering that leaves... you do the math.
Veg compartment lightning - 4 CFLs
Flowering lightning - 1 400w HPS
At the moment I'm planning on cooling this setup with 4 120mm intake PC fans and
4 120mm exhaust (should my exhaust exceed the intake?)
I'm not quite sure if I'm educated enough to cope with all the hydroponic theory so that leaves me with the choice of using soil medium.
I'll be growing White Widow strain ordered from Nirvana... I've read somewhere that these grow rather tall?
My initial questions:
1. Should I use white reflective foil or mylar?
2. Would 4 plants be 'pushing it'?
3. Is it a good idea to run 2 additional CFL's on the sides of the growbox's flowering room in order to supply more light to the lower parts of the plant?
I'm truly sorry for not having some photos but I thought it was better to educate myself a little more before I start...
Well... I think that is for now... Have a great day/night!
Ninjah - Out!
P.S. My English is kinda sucky sometimes so... apologies for that!
