So your area (3 feet X 3 feet x 6 feet) equals out at 108 sq feet. I took a quick look around the internet, and it seems that you are within the specs for it to do a good and adequate job for that area. Pricing out front (not including shipping to Canada) is a good deal from others that are selling the same items, at a higher $US Dollar amount. I would say, if it were me, and IMO, a great deal.

Good Luck, but wait for a few more responses before pulling the trigger here.
Best of Luck

Edit/ Wrong Math/ 3 X 3X 6 equals 54 square feet
Still good choice :-)

Just keep the carbon filter up at the top and when you upgrade get a air cooled hood, so then you can hook your carbon filter up to the air cooled hood and cool down your light at the same time and then put the duct outside the tent. that tent is expensive too lol.

id rather spent 5 bucks for a roll of duct tape and save over 100 bucks but thats me

and get something thats bigger for cheaper sounds like a deal to me haha

also my light looks like this http://www.ebay.ca/itm/ALL-NEW-400-watt-HPS-Grow-Light-High-Pressure-Sodium-w-HUGE-BATWING-BULB-BALLAST-/270886566208?pt=LH_DefaultDomain_0&hash=item3f1218f940

notciing it isent the best i could have got but bought it in a local hydro shop and again it was recommended to me lol
This is my first Ligit indoor set up been growing for years though indoor and out , just finally settling down inside and trying to get a decent set up

ZenOne · Jan 9, 2012

the reflector is white though not like mirrored

fir3dragon · Jan 9, 2012

if you decide to upgrade, i reccomend this
http://www.amazon.com/Grow-Light-hydroponic-Dimmable-Hydrofarm/dp/B005GYMM6U/ref=sr_1_4?s=garden&ie=UTF8&qid=1326073216&sr=1-4

only because of the air cooled hood, you dont gotta worry about the heat from the light sitting in your tent.

ZenOne · Jan 9, 2012

sweet, thanks ill keep that in mind but as for now only have cash for a filter, cant have any smell going around my house ;p

ZenOne · Jan 9, 2012

anyone suggestions people? or should i just go with the link i posted?

fir3dragon · Jan 9, 2012

yeah i understand keep the filter up at the top of your tent so it sucks out all the hot air produced from your light :d

fir3dragon · Jan 9, 2012

well if you wanted to spend a little more money for better air flow etc you could get this, but its 6 inch not 4.

http://www.amazon.com/Hydrofarm-Active-Air-inch--Line/dp/B002JQ14F8/ref=sr_1_9?ie=UTF8&qid=1326141079&sr=8-9

with this filter
http://www.amazon.com/LED-Wholesalers-GYO2301-Hydroponic-Scrubber/dp/B003UL8JMM/ref=pd_sim_hg_2

its more expensive, but its 400 CFM compared to the one you showed is 190 CFM which is how much air it sucks up/ produces.

HELP! what filter/fan should i get?!
