Setting up two tents one 5x5 and a 5x9 heres my setup

5x5
1000w DE mh/hps
sunsystem acde with cool tubes setup
solis tek dimmable ballast
8 bucket aeroponic setup
passive intake
2 bml light bars at 660nm
2 bml light bars at 730nm

5x9
3x 1000w DE mh/hps
same reflectors and ballast
12 bucket aeroponic setup
passive intake
same light bar setup

both tents will be circulated by a 12 in max fan at 1700 cfm into a carbon filter
11,000 btu portable ac if needed this summer
thermoflo ducting

Havent decided on method of co2 delivery yet. Anybody have experience with bags?
Planned to run scrogs with grape god and amnesia haze goals are 6 oz per plant in the 5x5 and 12oz per plant in the 5x9. I will do a journal once its up and running.

Get rid of the bml crap lights. Forget about co2 in tents, they're not airtight.

Why don't you like bml?

Overpriced for 3w diodes.

I gotcha, other than that would you say it's solid? My goals seem pretty reasonable

I don't think you'll get 4lbs out of a 5x5 tent, but as long as you can keep temps in line and feed properly, you'll do well.

8 plants x 6oz each =48oz =3lbs

Sorry, been framing the basement today, have inches/feet on the brain.

That still seems like a tough goal. Is this your first grow?

It will be the first time its all mine, ive helped and worked with others before just not start to finish by myself.

It usually takes awhile to dial a new system in and work out the all the little kinks....even then I feel you may want to mitigate your expectations some.

Plan for the worst, hope for the best. NEVER set a high goal to start that will derail your operation if its not met.

Co2 tank with full climate control is the ONLY way to ensure you will have a dialed system to optimal conditions at all times. Having said that co2 in tents half defeats the purpose as they cannot completely be sealed/regulated. I usually recommend forgoing co2 in tents unless you're prepared to replace the tank frequently.

You don't need 3 1000w DE in that 5x9. Two would be more recommend.
