Hey guys, moving to a new place in August and after not growing for a year I'm looking to get back into the game! I plan to keep it small and stealthy, I will stick to what I know with a 12/12 from seed or autoflower SOG. I want to get as many 1 cola plants in there as possible, really get a pot in every square CM. I've grown in kind of botched systems before but this time I want to build a really nice cab I can use for years to come.
Here's what I'm thinking so far:
Cabinet:
Thinking of getting something like this, I will try and get something local at the time though. Dimensions are (W) 73cm (D) 45cm (H) 72cm. This will give me space for 12x 3 litre pots.
Ventilation:
4 Inch fan system with carbon filter, like this
Light:
This is where I'm unsure. I found a cheap t5 unit on the bay here but I'm pretty sure this will not give me enough light for 12 little plants even with the 4 tube unit. I was thinking of supplementing it with some 125w Cfls or possibly a home made 70w hps unit. Alternatively I was thinking of getting a 250w Hps in an open reflector or maybe even a 400w in a cooltube but im not sure if this will give me lots of heat issues further down the line as it's such a small space.
Grow Specifics:
Planning on growing 12/12 from seed or autoflowers (which ever you guys think will complement the SOG style most). Planting in square 3L pots using biobizz lightmix and biobizz nutes.
What do you guys reckon?
Cheers, toke on
