Grow room design help

Discussion in 'Grow Room Design/Setup' started by MichiganOasis, Feb 11, 2015.

  1.     Hello everyone, good news, i'm finally about to start the build of my grow room once i get the whole plan situated on how i'm going to build the room and the exact brand of equipment that i'm going to buy. The room i am working with is a decent sized room in all but part of it has a drop ceiling, so part of it is 10x11x6.5 ft and the drop ceiling section is 10x4.5x5.5. Just to make that clear the total size of the room is roughly10x15x~6ft. I'm a medical patient and i can grow 12 plants for myself so i'm thinking about doing a perpetual grow, 6 veg and 6 flower so i could be technically harvesting around every 2-2 in a half months. I'm planning on going 100% organic with building my soil, teas, possibly no-till etc. I love growing and have a few grows under my belt (2 haha) so i am by no means very skilled, just very committed to growing them right, patiently, and doing my research! But i know that it mainly takes trial and error so let the ventures begin!  
        So my main questions for all you wonderful people are:
     
    Question 1:  I'm thinking making the drop ceiling section for veg since the ceiling is shorter obviously and that space is about 10x4.5x5.5, so maybe a tent around 8x4x5, what size tent would be good for veg growth for 6 plants at about 4-6 weeks veg'd?
     
    Question 2:  Same thing but for flower, I have about 10x11x6.5 to work with for 6 flowering plants. I want these plants to be correctly spaced and have adequate-abundant light, so what size tent would do that job?  
     
    Question 3: I'm thinking 2 600 watt HPS lights for the 6 flowering and either a lush lighting LED veg light for the 6 in the veg tent or a 600 watt HPS for the 6 in the veg tent, would you guys agree with me on the lighting issue, if not what would be ideal.
     
    Question 4: Last question haha, with the given setup above ^ what would be the best way to move air in both tents and clean them. There are windows in the room and the basement is very cold so i could pull cold air from another room through an intake splitting into both tents, like a 8 or 10 inch Canfan for intake and then for exhaust maybe a 10 or 12 inch splitting into both tents with ducting attached to the hoods of the lights that suck the smell and heat out and push it through a 10 or 12 inch carbon filter. What would be best?
     
      Sorry if this is a lot i just like to be detail so i know everyone is on the same page  :ey:
    I don't expect everything to be exact as i know it's hard to comprehend to full extent over the internet haha just trying to get ideas better than mine or you guys tweaking my ideas. Thank you a lot to whoever takes the time to participate and help me out it is greatly appreciated! Sharing is caring  :hello:  :bongin:

    Anyone care to offer some advice for at least just one of the questions... you don't have to answer them all unless you want to haha or anything at this point!
     
  3. have you thought about T5s for your veg room? also if your gonna keep a mother to clone from your gonna have to cut the number your growing. Not sure if you've thought about that or not. Im not in a legal state but Im planning a similar room.8'X11'X80". Im planning 4 per 600 watt hhps and a 6 tube 4 ft T5
