Note: this is a personal grow. So im not concerned with a SoG.. I dont need quite that much pot on my hands. ![Wink ;) ;)](/styles/smilies/icon_wink.gif)
So heres the deal... im currently growing my first plant in my closet and its going quite well. The one plant growing is about 3 weeks into bloom and looks amazing.. a little over 2 feet tall at the moment. Clones have been taken and are rooting in my DIY bubble cloner.
Now heres my question.. I have a walk in closet with 64H x 58w x 30 deep.. a nice big rectangle. I am currently growing out of a single 5 gallon lowes bucket that has a net pot in it.. the bucket is the res and grow chamber. Very very small setup. However, we (me and my roomie) are looking to expand. We have a 400w HPS/MH ballast (Sunleaves Pulsar) that is a all in one thing.. ballast, reflector, etc is all one big thing.
The walls are already painted flat white, so I dont feel the need to change that at the moment since I dont really have a lot of cash laying around.
Im considering using a 30 gallon rubbermaid tub as my res and 4 or 5 buckets to grow the plants in. My current air pump and water pump I dont think will support more than what I have going at the moment.. but im willing to spring for larger pumps when the time is needed and ill just move the old pumps to a new cloner.
Any ideas on how to make what I have and want to fit into this area would be awesome.
Shitty paint image attached is a rough idea of what my idea is... but I think I would have an issue with the middle plant getting all the light and the other 2 not really getting enough light.
Comments? Thought? Any help is appreciated!
