Grow Tent Q

OK, so i just ordered a 6.5'x3'x3' grow tent. I will be using the following:

250w cooltube with digital ballast and hps/mh bulbs
6'' carbon filter
440 cfm fan w/6'' duct line
floor fan
not sure what nutes yet
ph up and down
some type of thempmeter, ph meter, humity gauge

I will be growing in the master bathroom which has been gutted of everything except the light fixture. I am going to put a portable a/c in the bathroom and just have a passive intake. my question is it worth it to run co2 into an area that small? My second question is 250w going to be enough, if not can i supplement w/some cfl's?

250w is not enough. I'm not 100% sure but you'd probably want like, 2-400w, or maybe 2-600w. I'm not sure the exact footprint for those, but 250w is definitely not enough.

2x600 in a 3x3? wtf

OP, 250 is fine in a 3x3. Short and wide is key.

Oh, I thought 6.5 was width... huh huh.

How often you see people put the height first? lol. I guess I didn't look at all three numbers? idk

CFLs would work for supplemental lighting, or maybe get another 250, idk, CFLs maybe your best bet. Kinda depends on your uation.

HAHA yea, that would make for a weird ass tent

lol, sorry about the confusion. 6.5 IS THE HEIGHT. HAHA anyways, thanks for the replies. Anybody have any input on the co2?

Portable A/c will just exhaust out any co2 supplementation with the heat. I'd say don't worry about it.

Im debating the 250w with supplemental cfls to get the wattage between 500-600 or saying fu*k it and just buying a 600w cooltube and use the 250w in the veg room? what type of cfl's if i stay with the 250
