My Operation

[switchone]

Hello Everyone,

I am new to the forums and I would like to take this time to give everyone a chance to critique my operation.

This will be done in my condo, in my bedroom closet.

Here are the specs of the space:

[FONT=&quot](9.9sqf = W 2.3ft/L 4.3ft/H 6.4ft)[/FONT]

Shopping List:

5 Feminized Plants (Northern Lights)
Fan:
-4” Vortex Inline Fan 172 CFM

Lighting:
-400watt HPS/MH with Digital Ballast and Reflector with MH and HPS 400w Bulbs

Carbon Filter:
-Can Fill 33 210 CFM
Soil/Fertilizer:
-Pure Blend Pro Veg Organic Ferilizer

-Pure Blend Pro Bloom Organic Fertilizer

-Premier Pro Mix BX 107L

-5x 5gallon Buckets

Extras:
-10x10 Poly Film B/W

I am going to vent the Can-Fill Outside my closet BTW.
Can anyone tell me roughly the yield I can get with good conditions. I will be opening the closet door to let some fresh air in as well. I will also have a oscilating fan on.
If there are any tips or advice or plain simple critique please let me know.


Thanks

Oh I almost forgot. I will be using the MH for Veg and then switch to 12/12 with the HPS. I am going to wait till the plants reach 18" before I switch to HPS Bloom

I had a closet grow setup and the only issue i had was temps. And i was not even using HPS. So watch out for that. You will definitly need a intake/exhaust for the closet using HPS. Or a cooltube man. Im not to familiar with the cool tubes myself, but there are lots of links on here all about them. Im not entirely sure if opening the door now and again will provide enough "Fresh" air for your babies man, but they will let you know. What are your plans for the ventilation other then opening/closing the door? Fans work great to str your stem and moving around air. But with a closet grow moving around stale air is b-a-d..

But that is just my input. Take it for what its worth lol cheers

Yea i know what your saying. I was under the impression that the 4" vortex inline fan would have taken care of this heating issue??

Hey do you think if i buy a air cooled reflector with an inlinee fan attached to it and then put my carbon filter outside the room attached to the duct coming in from the inline fan that this would solve the heat issues?

with the basic grow skills under control 200 grams is a realistic figure without co2 and sog

ok wll that will last me a good while. lol

anyways here is the fan i was thinking of getting with the carbon filter. I am planning to link this fan to my air cooled reflector and exhaust out my closet. I hope this makes sense. this way i dont spend money on 2 separate fans and $300 extra. Please let me know what everyone thinks I really appreciate the wealth of knowledge in these forums.

I was thinking that I grab 10fem seeds. Veg them for about 3-3.5 weeks. and then send them into flowering? will this increase my yield and make the plants grow smaller but wider?

I was also thinking of vegging them under

4x 6500 cfl
2x 2700 cfl

in a rubbermaid box. and then flower them after 3-3.5 weeks

thanks
