Hey guys, just wanted to start a thread to get help on a few questions I had in regards to my first growbox:
As of right now, the box has dimensions of about 2x3x4.5
It has a 400w hps/mh light fixture suspended from the ceiling reducing the grow area to probably 2x3x3
It has a 120mm intake fan in the bottom corner and an exhaust fan in the top opposite corner up by the light
All of the walls and floor have Mylar coverings
My questions for RIU are:
The box has a running temperature from 85-90 degrees would better ventilation solve this or is my light too big for the room?
The box is in an old basement, could humidity/mold spores cause a problem and if so, how would I counteract this?
How much yield can I expect if I LST the plants and how many plants could I fit inside there?
My original plan was to grow organically, but now I heard that hydro was the easiest way to maintain for noobs like myself, should I go organic or hydro for my first grow?
Thanks in advance for your advice and critisims!![Mr. Green :mrgreen: :mrgreen:](/styles/smilies/icon_mrgreen.gif)
