Hi,
I have done two successful grows now, and I have decided to step up my grow room so it's bigger and better than ever. Before I had a 1.2m secret jardin tent with a 400w hps light using coco.
My new set up is as follows.
2.4x1.2x2m tent
two 600w hps light
two flood and drain (ebb+flow) tables with 100 litre res (hydro)
hydroton pebles and coco as growing medium
sea of green set up with 5/6 week staggered harvest
I will also be using my old tent to house mother plants for clones, first time doing this - and have a 250w MH for the mothers
So as you can see, this is a big step up for me, by using mother plants and taking clones, and going hydro.
I have also got a new ruck 5 fan (high powered version) for extraction and will be extracting in to the loft instead of a skylight as before. also I have purchased a evo controller for fans and heater with a thromostat if needed in winter. Expensive bit of kit at £145!
Could probably do with hydro propagator of some sort, may make one of these instead of buying, and need a heating matt.
I'm hoping the ruck fan will be fine for the tent size as the tent is massive, the fan info is "RUCK Fan 125mm/5 Inch High Power Version (365m3/hour)" I'm crap at maths but I believe tis will be sufficient, got it from Greens horticulture...
Worried about the controller slowing the extraction fan down and losing negative pressure, but I could just use passive intake? Time will tell...
The enviro controller is this http://www.hg-hydroponics.co.uk/ecotechnics-evolution-temperature--humidity-controller-823-p.asp
If anyone wants to add anything I may need or any problems overlooked then feel free
