This is the plan for the second attempt. First one was way too small. The intake vents were too small, it gets too hot during the day, too cold at night, too humid at night, isn't light proof, has no odour control and it's awkward to water the girls.
This is the were I got the calculations I've been using to work out the ventilation. Post #6. Does it seem right?
The mark II. Size will be 4' x 4' x 7'.
This one will have a carbon filter, and a HVK 125mm 350m^3/h (5" 206 cfm) fan which will be controlled by a timer:
but also connected to a thermostat:
and a humidistat:
Where's the best place to locate the sensor's for these?
If that's not enough to keep the humidity down,I'll get a de-humidifier.
Where's the best place to locate this in the room?
The fan will vent out the window (with some mods to the window for stealthiness). To preserve most of the cfm's, I hope to keep the ducting completely straight.
Are carbon filters light proof?
I'm also putting in a small heater, connected to the thermostat. I'm assuming since heat rises, I want this at the bottom.
Light will be a 400w HPS. I'll also be using passive intakes, number and size to be determined.
The wall's will be white hard board covered with that white/black plastic on the inside. Due to a massive miscalculation, I bought 27 meters of it for a 3' x 2'x 6' box
Any comments on any aspect?
