designing new grow room, need help and advice.

Discussion in 'Grow Room Design/Setup' started by 1dude1, Nov 30, 2010.

  1. Lights
    1x 400watt hps in a tube,
    4x t5 ho(2 ft, 3 ft or 4 ft? this question will be obvious at the end as to why)

    grow room
    either secret jardin dark room dr120, the 4'x4'x7' or this one Hydroponic Plant Grow Growing Tent Box Room 4'x4'x6'8" - eBay (item 320615331003 end time Dec-09-10 11:06:37 PST)
    any suggestions on those two?

    ventilation
    oscillating fan for the tops of my bud
    1x 435 cfm fan
    1x 300cfm booster fan
    2x computer fans (1x 90cfm, 1x 150 cfm)
    1 desk fan, unknown cfm, but it is a strong fan

    Nutes
    Hessi starter kit (soil) it works well, not the best
    P.S. i am trying to use all my soil nutes before i go into hydro, this means about 3-5 more harvests so bear with me on that one

    soil
    I enjoyed fox farm ocean forest and i have heard good things about it, but i want max yeild, any suggestions on my soil?

    design of grow room(this is where i need a bit of help from you pro's on here)
    435 cfm fan as exhaust connected to my cooltube through ducting(i can move the ducting down to lower my light, yes?) then connected to my carbon filter. should i put the booster fan inside here because it will have a 180 degree turn and the possibility of 2 90 degree turns on top of that(lowering it must create angles) there will also be a t5 ho light on each corner of my grow room.
    i want to make it so i don't have to pull my plant out to water it or flush it so i designed room for a 5 gallon bucket to go below it(15 in) as well as a 20 gallon bucket for my single plant to scrog(18 in) and the screen 18 inches above the top of the pot. in total the inches required for this setup as is are 51 inches leaving the dr120 with 33" of grow room left and the ebay one with 31". and then to compensate for the min distance from my light that leaves the dr120 with 25 in of growth space and the ebay one with 23 in of growth space. Any an all advice is welcome, i am open to all suggestions even hydro but i can't use hydro until all my soil nutes are gone. any way that you guys think i should change this design i will listen to just please provide a reason with it. i guess my main question is this; knowing all the materials i have and that i don't want to spend more than $250 extra on this setup (i don't have the tent or the t5 lights yet) how would you guys do this? this is a medical grow.
     
  2. one oscillating fan... and one inline fan is all you need(exhaust only)..

    forget the booster fart fan... total garbage
