not really just a line that leaves the grow area.Could just let the heat go to the attic since it wont have moisture in the air it wont cause any mildew issues. This way a little hole in the cieling for flex duct and the heat will go right out. The other end can get air from either out of the grow room or have a fan on the end sucking the air from the room in if your not using co2

So since my room in very dry with very little moisture in the air that i could skip cutting into my roof and just run it into the little attic space i have ? I mean theirs gotta be a vent in the attic to let air out. Hmmmmmmmm tha would really help me out alot thats the hassel ive been dealing with is this stack

Do not pay $600 for a 100 watt digital ballast. If you really want some let me know I will beat that by few hundred for the 100 watt ballast with 3 year warranty just let me know

And on the stack question. yeah if you just looking to vent the light heat then it can go to the attaic space then just ocassionally take a peek up there to make sure its not moist and your attic should have vents for letting air out allready

That's what FF meant. He just left off a "0".

He's right, you can get a 1000w setup cheaper than $600.
I'd even go plain old magnetic, not digital. Cheaper and more reliable.

You can still find a good kit for $400-500 that includes all of that. Check out Growco. or Discount Hydro, or ANY online
hydro store.

At some of the online stores you get free shipping if your order is over a certain amount. I always use GrowCo. Over $250
and you get free shipping. That can save you almost $50 right there. Any time I have a problem with something I bought
from them they paid for return shipping no problems. They have really good customer service and they'll work with you.

FF, what's the story on those ballasts and reflectors you're getting? I saw a picture of the ballast, the silver ones. Who
are they made by and what kind of reflector comes with them, if you don't mind my asking? I might be looking into a 600w
setup soon.
