hello all,im looking to get some input on the setup i want to start working with..
i'v been working with a 400w hps in a sun tube with a 170cfm fan exhausting the room by blowing through the tube.
the closet is 600 cubic ft. i use half for veg with cfl's...that leaves 300 cubic ft for flowering.
i'v got some money to spent on lighting and i'm having a hard time deciding on a 600w hps or 1000w hps for the room...my biggest concern is heat,i'm in the southwest and temps inside with the A/C on are in the 80's.
the tube can keep the 400 well under control,im wondering if the 1000w will be able to have its heat kept in check in the tube with the170 cfm fan blowing through it or will my room temps be way out of control
i will be able to keep the light at least 18-24 inches above the canopy
anyone running similar setups? advice or thoughts would be great!
thanx
