    Min Size for Grow Room

    Sublime, i'm looking to scrog as my first grow. From dirt to t5's I have 29" of height. I was wondering, at what height would you recommend putting the screen? Oh and what size pots and how far apart should they be?

    Yo billybob. If I have 30" max height that my plants can grow to, at what height should I put the scrog screen?

    actually the more I read about the different kinds of bulbs the more I like cfl's. The t5 seems to have a pretty good rep. I think that the hps will get too hot for the size of my enclosure (40"h x 27"d x 42" w). I just don't think that having to keep the HPS lights 12-18 inches from the top...

    With the flowering side of my box being 42"L x 27"d x 40"h I am leaning toward using Flourescent HPS bulbs. Would 2 250w be good or do you suggest going higher to like 400w? How hot do they get compared to HID lamps?

    I was hoping to be able to maximize the 40" by using a drip method like the one below. If I put the resevoir off to the side and not under I think space could be saved. My question though is with the grow tray. What is the best setup for rockwool and air stones(I think thats what i've heard them...

    I was picturing that 4 would fill the space nicely. I'm just concerned that having only 40" of total hight for my enclosure might make it hard to keep the plant away from the light and burning would be an issue. Should I use a cool running bulb? or do they just not cut it? Any...

    First off, Billybob, I just read through this entire thread and your grow looks damn pretty. You have inspired me to start SCROGing. I think it would be a great way to get the most out of my space. I'm new to the game and feel like reading this thread has tought me a lot. I appreciate that...

    Grow box

    Yo passittotheleft, Sea of Green definately seems like the way to go. I was looking into using the drip method as well. I'd be willing to buy a few pumps and hoses to make it happen. I am still not totally clear on the specifics of making a drip system though. I've been looking around, but...

    Grow box

    I have been interested in a grow box and currently I'm in the design faze. With paramaters of 54"W x 27"D x 40"H how many plants would you suggest should be grown in that area using a hydroponic method? What is the recommended method of hydroponics to use? I mean doing it right with any...

    LED growbox anyone??

    I am interested in creating a stealth growbox and figured lighting is a good place to start. I have been doing some research and LED's seem to be the light source of the future. They run cool and use considerably less power. This would seem to allow a growbox to be much more compact in design...
