Right now I have 7 bulbs of assorted varieties... 1x40w soft white, 2x30w soft white, 2x23w daylight, 2x26w daylight for a total of 202w if i did the math right... It's honestly probably good enough, just a lil over 100 watts per plant but I just want one more bulb haha. Originally i thought...

Added a new (well it was actually from the used bin at a local pc shop) 120 mm fan for an intake. Also got an 80mm fan that I plan to use to supplement exhaust but I havent bothered mounting it yet. One step at a time :D Hoping this will help ventilation so I can add another 40w bulb for...

Ya i wouldn't stress. Honestly you're probably about to start seeing some 7-9 leaf sets.

Sounds like you got the right idea for intake/outtake. ^like he said it's probably not necessary to have a fan dedicated to the bulbs. Instead I'd use those 4 inch fans to double as bulb/plant blowers. Look at my grow if you need an idea of what i mean (my fan is right in between the plants in...

ah okay. Good plan, still you might end up wanting to take it off. I'd like to use reflectors but with how close cfl's tend to get it just creates a little heat pocket between the lights and plants if you dont have AMAZING air flow. just a heads up :P. Can't wait to see this thing with plants. I...

Quoting this to reemphasize the height and room restrictions :P. Lst and/or scrogging is necessary in my opinion

depending on where you mount your exhaust you're probably gonna have to remove the reflector to get good air flow. just a thought, otherwise looks good.

Cool cool. Trying to get some ideas for next setup. Gonna be a combo of cfls and hps, led or some t5s

that's about what im using right now (been using that or less throughout my grow) for 3 plants. plants are pretty healthy so far. As long as you have about 100w per plant you should be fine, just keep them nice and close.

Any pics of the setup? sounds pretty legit. what are your temps normally at? subbed.

just make sure you get some good ventilation in there. I have 7 bulbs ranging from 26-40w (around 200w total) in my cab right now and its hard to keep temps below 80 with lights on. Usually around 83-85 average with lights on.

Okay that's about what i was thinking. I've just been moving my tops to further spots along the grid as the grow through. I started the scrog pretty late though.

12 bulbs is gonna be a lil overkill in that size of a container. Like the poster above said, you only need about 100 watts per plant. Also, I'd go with flat white over the emergency blankets - less heat spots will form and it won't insulate as much of the heat.

what's the wattage on your bulbs (actual not equivalent)?

I as well have to say your plant is a beauty. Nice simple and healthy... strong emphasis on the healthy. rep+subbed

lst looks good!

sooo many budsites. Can't wait to see this thing fill up. You definitely gave me some inspiration with your scrog.

Sounds like you got a good training plan penyajo, but I'm curious, when you say you're not going to weave her but tye her with ribbons does that mean the plant will be tied to the top of the rack? Just trying to get an image of what you're doing (maybe get some ideas for my own grow ;))

Weird how things like that work, huh? Glad to have another rider along ;)

Spot on there. I have a similar (but bigger) fan on my cab. It's noticeably louder when i shut my cab door than when it's opened (because the air flow is about 10 times as strong lol).
