Hi everyone im on my first proper set up well my first ever Sodium lamp.Its a Son T and i only have a fan cos i dont have a clue and i mean a clue abot ventilation /cooltube inline fans ect!.And to be honest its putting me off the idea now.MIm not growing over 5plants so smell will not be an issue the issue is heat high 20s to low 30s on a bad day??.Will this be ok just for 4-5plants low80s???.God fresh air from my windows its just heat.Would not mind one of them cooltube thingy's but they look very expensive which im out of work so thats a no-no.Also inline fans ect its supposed to be stelthy so no-one can hear it down the stairs??.Have got a BATHROOM FAN HOOKED UP BUT I DONT USE IT COS IT DOES NOT MAKE A DIFFERENCE.What am i doing wrong remember its only 5plants ??.kiss-ass:joint:bongsmilie

i found 250's dont produce very dense buds.. it produces very little PAR watts and a relatively small amount of lumens. the 400 is much more capable and produces much denser nugs. but if you must use the 250 i would only grow 2-4 plants and keep them little ... i mean tiny. flower the plants right after they have roots so they stay small during flower and keep the light very close to the tops of the plants

Hi there these are my intentions i have been happy with my last 2grows with this.Im only looking for a few ozzes every few month so this fits the job.Only thing is looks like my blooms are gonna be over 80,f so they are gonna be a little airy.#-5 small plants in small area is what i want its just extraction or cooling thats a prob.

you wonn't have a heat problem with a 250wt. grow you girls in veg till thet are 12" tall and then switch to 12/12. keep your light as close as you can with out burning them up. you should get a bit more then a oz per plant maybe even 2 oz. good luck
