Hey i'm new to these forums and was hoping to get some advice from some experts, This is my first grow and i decided to do a led cabinet design as it would be stealth enough for my needs. I have a $3000 budget maybe a bit more if needed. I was planning on 3 200w solarflares in flowering chamber(12/12) and have room for mother/ clone space. Should i grow in soil or hydro? i really want some solid buds (ill change brand if anyone can suggest a better one) in a cab 1.5depth x 4.1length x 6.2height airtight (gotta figure out how to seal door but shouldn't be to hard) laced with mylar.
Im not too sure how much heat the 40x 5w leds give off (i hope its enough to keep plants warm, It may need sum sort of heating/extra light. its in a double garage under our house) so not sure about cooling i want something quiet that i can run with temp fan controller with carbon filter not sure what size yet.
also is it a good idea to put temp controller on light incase the exhaust fan shits out? do humidifiers help much? and maybe a computer fan inside the cab to blow the fresh air around? ill try DIY some light traps also.
I plan on having a space for 1-2 mothers.I'm not sure what lighting yet.. and cloning space not sure what lighting yet..
I plan to put as many new clones as i can fit in the flowering chamber every week and grow smaller plants in SoG so i get better light coverage for the leds and a desent harvest every week, i want to have a built in drying space on the intake (is this a good idea)? (is it better to grow them with one big stem and no side branches)?
I'm not to sure about nutrients and stuff yet but will do some research (i'm thinking Budzilla and root blast looks good maybe)?, also hoping to eventually add a some sort of a pump feeding system on a timer premixed with nutrients? and eventually co2.
Have any idea how much i should yeild from this setup without co2. i'm open to any ideas and thank you very much in advance Toze You.
Ps:Once i get it up and running i'm keen to do a grow journal so you guys can watch me fail haha.
