I am building a new flowering room under my house. I have a grow / mother room in an extra bathroom in the house. I will have to bring the plants from one area to the other, which makes me a bit nervious, but thankfully my wife is an absolute clean freak. It is VERY secure, invisible from the street, but unfortunately a bit shallow, the roof of my box is 6'6". I have a 6' x 7' footprint, with a 4' x 7' plant area, fully lined with mylar and a 12" splash wall. I have been debating using two 600 watt HPS or should I bring in 2 1000 watt bulbs? I don't know if that is too much heat and light considering how small the area is. (I am trying to bring in as much air as I can, and I am getting in-line hoods with two 240 CFM fans). Here is my list, I have not yet purchased the lights, that is Tuesday's project:

2 x 150 CFM 6" inline duct fans for bringing air in (I have put an extra vent in my office floor, which is right over the box, pulling in air).

2 x 240 CFM 6" inline duct fans for the lights (one pushing, one pulling)

18" x 10" carbon scrubber with 360 cfm fan

GEN-1 CO2 Generator

Portable 9000 BTU air conditioner / dehumidifier

I appreciate all advise. I am thinking I should be able to get about 18 - 20 8" square pots, Lollypopped per Al B Fuct.

Thanks

Thanks MJD and Growtech. Any thoughts on the 1000w vs the 600w? I will be posting the pics as soon as I get it finished. I think it should rock. I have a 8 each of the following seedlings started in my grow room: White Widow, Super Silver Haze and Himalayan Gold. They are all 7 days old, and I think I will bless the room with 6 or 7 of each breed, and keep one mother of each. I am starting the Journal on another thread tomorrow.
