Ok so here is my room, its a 2x4x7 (Pic below). I just got myself a 30inch Cooltube for 2 bulbs. Currently I am using a 400W CMH, my option for the second bulb is a 1000W HPS, or another 400W CMH. The purpose of getting the 2 bulb cool tube is to remove my 432W T5 side light. I love full spectrum, but I love more yield more....
I am using currently a TD-150 Inline fan with 212cfm, and when I move in the new reflector I am upgrading to a 440cfm Vortex inline fan, for double the exhaust.
So how much of a temperature change will I see adding the 1000W HPS with my current 400W CMH? As it stands the room will not get above 80F. My goal is to get as close to 10,000 lumen per sq ft (Yes I am aware lumen is OUR measurement of the light, not whats usable by the plant).
If 1000W HPS is suggested, would I be better off using a gently used 1000W Hortilux, or a 1000W Sun master super High output HPS bulb?
Any feedback is welcome! Especially idea's to improve my floor situation, but finding a cheap non DIY platform to raise them off the ground is a whole can of worms in itself.
Thanks in advance!
