Just Opened Up A New Dimension In My Closet

[62Blunts]

i just installed my 400w mh/hps cooltube light fixture in my 4x2x4 box lined with flat white paint and when i turned the bitch on i felt like it was a "God-box" the way it was shining

dude i hope you know what your doing with a 400w in that small of a space.... uhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh whats the lumens per square foot? LOL

 

[steverthebeaver81]

Nice box. you got good ventilation?

ahahahahahaha but that is alot of heat for small area hope you vent well........other than that awesome.........but I figure you have it covered .........

 

[Sr. Verde]

dude even if he vents it, when the lumens per square foot reaches a certain point, the highly intense light bleaches the chlorophyll from the plant.... now if you go back to 5th grade, what does chlorophyll do for a plant?

 

[steverthebeaver81]

maybe hes growin some white widow......

 

[StonedPony]

personally just guess at size I would go 150 but thats a rough guess for being stoned right now.

 

[Sr. Verde]

150w would be great for that space

 

[62Blunts]

its all good, you guys gonna see whats coming soon enough, i got good ventilation set up, temp stays in low 70s

Nice! I will come back in 3 months.

 

[Sr. Verde]

lumens / sq ft?

 

[tip top toker]

Looks a bit extreme. Once its full of plant it might get very hot in there. Listen to Verde on lumens per square feet.

 

[Sr. Verde]

i just wanna know lol

 

[del66666]

that box looks more like 4 hi 2 wide and 11/2 deep,, going to b about 30,000 lumens a foot lol, i reckon you going bleach them to hell, put plenty of sun block on

 

[62Blunts]

pretty sure somethin like 4500 lumens per sqare for metal halide and 5125 lumens for hps....could be totally wrong tho

keep a smoke alarm close to that.I aint trying to see you make a new thread about your house burning down.

hehehehe, I'd crack a smile if that happened though!

 

[62Blunts]

why would my house burn down...the temps are in low 70s inside the box..i have good venting and the lights in a cooltube

 

[tip top toker]

Don't ignore the fact that the more plant in the box the hotter it will become, and don't forget it's kinda still not even quite spring yet, not sure where you live but i know it's gonna heat up a hell of a lot between now and august.
