Planing a new grow, and right now designing new place where to grow. Planing to get a barrel and grow there.
1. Planing to get 225L -> ~59,4G plastic barrel. Drill few holes for ventilation and light, and make small doors.
2. 4 x PC vents, one on the top of the cool light tube, and rest of them for cool/warm/air circulation.
3. Smoke detector - don't know if I need it, but for safety, becouse it's a plastic barrel.
4. Light. I want to put only one light in a cool tube. And I need help for lamp. Thinking to get 250W HPS - would be enough for that size barrel? How many plants I can grow under 250W HPS?
5. Timers. For light and vents.
6. Measuring instrument. Temperature and humidity, for soil - pH meter.
7. Pots, soil ...
8. Seeds. MJ, small size (max ~60cm, indoor)
Small plan sketch ( blue - vent; yellow - light in a cool tube; blue line - cold air; red line - hot air)
What do you think? Are the vent in correct position? Can you give advice for point No. 4!
