how to start my small scale sog

im starting with a drip set and air stones, 6 plants in 1, and the other holds my mother an 6 clones.its going in a 4'7"wx4'7"L x6'4"h grow tent,with a 400whps on my 6 in flower stage on 1 side, and 2 4" florescent tubs + a 60wcfl for veg on the other. i have not started yet just waiting on my seeds.they r {purple#1/and master kush}...do the math an give me some op.

well everything sounds good, just make sure you have proper ventilation, those 400w give off major heat, do you have fans to pull out hot air or air cooled hood? what kinda hydro set you get?

i have a 400w hps with a 50cfm fan running a cooltube and another 50cfm venting the grow area. It is just barely enough; it keeps the ambient just below 30C. If i used a couple hundread cfm fan on the cooltube it would certainly be enough.

i have fan vent in and out, but i wanna know where to start with the SoG.my set up is a small station with a mother and 6 clones and a bigger station with 6 plants. so a 13 plant drip setup in a grow tent 6 foot 7 in (tall) x 4 foot 7 in (w) x 4 foot 7 in (L).

try to get a 6inch duct fan, 160cfm around 25bucks at home depot, i use one and its perfect for the 400w

you have a sweet size, just make sure you go by the book and do some reading theres millions of articles on the web which im sure you scowered, this is your first time? a few words of wisdom if so. first, less is more, at the begining we tend to do too much trying to give it all the tlc in the world, we often overwater and feed too early or too much,....now before we get onto the sog, make sure your venting is on point, you said the tent which all of them have the vent holes, how strong are the fans your gonna use? tell us more about your expirience so far and what nutes you like, also if you have any other equipment such as meters etc.
