Newbie here, looking for some ideas on how to best set up my room

[dieselsoot]

Attached is a drawing of my room, with deminsions and to scale.

This is what I want, but I'm open to suggestions.
3 rooms, cloning, veg, and flowering.
Hydroponic set up
Timers for the lights and watering.
Must eliminated the smell.
Black/white panda flim on the walls.

I was thinking and putting a wall in front the ac/vent to the 4' window and that room would be the flowing room aprox 6'x9'.
Then some how split the room up for the other too. I think the closet might be too small for the cloning, so it could be a supply room.
Fo some reason Im thinking the flowing room should be the biggest.
Or should I make them the same size and just alternate what the rooms are. There there will be no moving off the plants after the cloning stage is done.

Thinking 2 air cooled HPS in flowering, 2 air cooled MH in veg, and floresnt for the cloning.

Maybe run 6" duct for the lights and to a "y" that has a 8" fan then thru a scruber/filter. Either out the window or cut a hole in the floor and run it out a crawl space vent.
My 4' window is about 15' from the neigboors and in view. So Iam leaning towards a floor exit.

I could put a "y" on the A/C vent and direct it in both rooms, for the fresh air. If I need more, maybe cut another hole in the floor and use a fan to bring (cool) air in from under the house .

Osilating fan(s) in the veg and flowing rooms

My main electrical pannel in right out side. If I want to run 220V I will run power under the floor and come up and put a sub pannel in.


So what would be the best lay out to fit the most in there.
What size lights 600w?
What type of hydropontic system, Thinking the ebb type. What watering time intervals to start off with.
For the cloning rockwool or cubes?
How big of scruber would I need and is running 1 on the light duct ok.

I will have many more questions, but this will help.

Thanks

He did do his research. And these are his questions. Geeez.




I'd stick 1000w lamps in there if you can. They'll space nicer for the large space. Ebb Buckets will allow you to maintain your plants canopy better. But, it limits you to one nutrient solution per reservoir, which is OK if your not on a calendar. Water them once a day in veg, twice a day after week 2 in flower, and up to three times a day by week 7/8. No flush needed, use Hydroton in the buckets and start em in Rockwool. You can even use small one gallon hydroton buckets in veg mode then transplant them to the flower room in a bigger bucket later by filling the buckets and letting the hydroton fill up with water and lifting the plant out. I think you'll be fine with a jar of Ona and a chest-sized CAN filter for the light ventilation and that'll smell proof you for the most part.

Attached is one of the layouts I think might work.


2 foot isles.
I can put a 55gal drum at the end of the isle where the 8" "y" for the veg and put another 55 gal in the lover right corner by the fan.
Thanks kitty, I like the buckets after looking thru your journal.
Any thoughts?

Thanks
