Just to be clear I have never grown weed
the only knowledge I have is what I have
read largely in this forum and a couple
others. Please feel free to correct anything
I may have wrong... This is going to be my
first grow and I want it to be good =D.
My room is 4' 10" x 4' 6" and 9' tall.
I plan on flowering 4 plants at a time while
maintaining a small veg chamber for
clones/mothers.
The set up I have in mind was inspired
mostly by Earl's space ship but is starting to
take a shape of it's own...
I plan on useing a couple 54 qt marine
coolers ( 25"x15"x15") for my nutes and will
use the chiller pump and spray system
pumps to circulate the water between the
2. Both coolers will be set up with
sprayers/mister (havent settled on
which) system and bubble rocks.
I am thinking of going vertical do to the fact
that I will only be flowering 4 plants at a
time and want to have a decent harvest.
However I also dont want to have to veg
forever...
So I was thinking of useing 2 400w cool
tubes and a cage type set up...
Fig 1 Shows the basic idea....
The four outter circles are the 3.5" net pots I plan on useing. the center circle is the cool light and the large circle is the cage.
Questions regarding this design:
1. Should I stack 2 x 400w cool lights(I dont have 2 600s in the budget) and grow as high as it will go? If so what spacing should I go with in between bulbs and how long do you think I need to veg?
2. Should I go with 1 1000 w cool tube? If so how high should I go with the cage and what would be a good stationary distance from the cage to the plants?
Or we have fig 2..
This set up would only be able to get 2 400w max.
If I go with this design:
1. how high should my cages go?
2. How far should I have each netpot from
the cage/light?
So what do you think? Go with fig 1 setup or fig 2?
Should I not even screw with this plan and
hang a light?
Will post more about the actual hydo setup
once we figure out what to do about the
lighting.
My eta on having all the materials to build
this is less then a month.
Any feedback/help/advise is most welcome!
