Hi, I will be setting up my first grow very soon. Money is not a problem so give me any equipment that sounds good and works well. Basically what I need help with is lighting and a little ventilation help, also anything else you can think of that will help except seed choice.
I will be growing in 10'x10' spare room with two windows, but I will have a 9'x9' or 10'x10' grow tent in the room that will house my plants and grow.
First I should say that what I am trying to grow and accomplish for my first run is about 25-30 autoflower plants and 4 or 5 non auto plants (all from seed). So that I would be having all my autoflower plants already drying while I still have the non autos in the room in flowering mode then.
I will be using 5 gallon air pots for my autoflower seeds so maximize yield.
I dont feel like getting to much into my soil (organic of course) or nutes.
Distilled water
With Ac, dehumidifier, humidifier also in tent
This is where I need help with my exhaust.
I know the carbon filter combo that I will need to have to take care of the whole room and I will be exhausting it outside using the window. Also bringing is fresh air with an inline fan from the another window. WILL THIS WORK?
This is where I need help with my lighting situation.
At first I was thinking to get 8, 240W UV(w/ 3w bulbs) Led lights OR 4, 500W UV(w/ 3W bulbs) Led lights.
But then I realized that this is not optimum and I could do way better but I need help because I dont know much about lights. What I am mainly trying to accomplish is to not have to have 2 separate grow rooms, not have to change the type of light for veg and flower, and MOST IMPORTANTLY be able to go from seed all the way to flower with the one type of lights I am growing because the majority of my crop will be autoflowers from seed that flower on any light schedule and it doesnt really matter much about light just that they get enough. So I was thinking to have a half of the lights be metal halide because I heard they are good for veg and the other half be hps. How many 1000W lights should I get of each for that grow tent and when the plants are at seed and at seedling how much of the lights should be running. SO CAN SOMEONE HELP ME WITH THIS
SO PLZZZZZZ GIVE ME SUGGESTIONS AND HELP ON MY VENTILATION AND LIGHTING.......... Had to smoke 5 bowls in my largest bowl to type this
