In the process of designing my new room. Was hoping you growers could show me your set ups. Looking for some different ideas. My set up will be around 4x4x7... If this thread is already out there sorry, maybe you could shoot me over the link? Sent from my iPhone using Grasscity Forum mobile app
A 4x4 is pretty basic. If you are just growing for personal I would say a dimmable ballast 600w. Veg with MH then switch to flower with a HPS. I think youll need like a 1XX CFM fan to pull air out (run ducting to suck air over the light bulb to help it run cooler). Have a 6-8" circle cut to allow fresh air to be pulled in using negative pressure. Get a 12" oscillating fan or box fan and have it blow on your plants to make sturdy stalks.
Mines only 3sq ft. It's a perpetual cabinet. Personal use varies a LOT... how much yeild do you estimate you need. Link to my set up in my sig my cheap LED grow. 168 watts at the wall: https://forum.grasscity.com/index.php?/topic/1393482-My-"Everything-Wrong"-grow...-probably-no-harvest-:-/
I have a 6" powermaxx inline fan with a 6" carbon. Fully equipped mylar room. Even the ceiling. Door ect. Insulated double sided dry wall room. Just one little like desk fan? Type thing. An Apollo 600w light set up with both mh and hps 600 light s. My 6 " fan speed controller. And a humidifier. I'd say the whole set up cost me. 5 600 bucks. But I just got my 6" fan an filter and all that jazz. That was around $200 with a couple other things. PH up and down and stick pH testers. So I'd say a good 500 well spent dollars will get u where u need to go to grow. Smoke easy my friend.
Perpetual box... all electric in the top shelf for safety. Drawing 47 watts veg and 168 watts flower Should be good for an ounce a month once I get my mites under control. Costs 7$ a month for the box my cheap LED grow. 168 watts at the wall: https://forum.grasscity.com/index.php?/topic/1393482-My-"Everything-Wrong"-grow...-probably-no-harvest-:-/
