Hey, so ima just get strate to it and would really appriciate ALL your tips and advice and comments.
So, the area im planning to grow in is a tall kitchen cabinet lol. we have extra 1's and the 1 i picked seem to be best. so its divided by 2 sections the cabinet. its 2 feet squared (2 feet widex2 feet in lenght) and its 5 feet tall. i was planning to grow my plants in that section, the other section is on top of it, its 2 feet squared also bu only 3 feet tall. i was planning to have all my wireing up there and nute.'s and whatever else.
So, on the bottom section i was planing on puting 3 rows of 3 witch would be a total of 9 plants. i think this sounds like its going to be majorly squished? would it be bad if the plants would be squished? or should i just do 4 plants? or how many would you recommend?
So, with that said. I have a small fan that works very well that i was planning to place inside that would run 24hr.s and probably hang it from the top asuming there would be no space from the bottom.
Then, i wont to use CFL's. so today i went out 2 OSH and bought 6 CFL's. but im pritty stupid ahaa becasue there 23watts each with 5500K. but the reason i bought them was becasue in alot of reviews ive read so far about CFL's says that the watts arnt the main thing, that its mainly about the lumens it procuse's. An each bulb produce's 1400 lumens (1380 lumens exactly) and what ive researched so far is that you would wont about 3000 lumens per square foot. and with the 6 cfls thats 8280 lumens being pushed out all together. is that fine? or would you recommend somthing else? would it produce more heat? i was planning on going tmrw and returning them and getting higher wattage bulbs. but all the higher wattage bulbs were 2500K or 2700K and i will get those but only for flowering and iwont vegbulbs rite now. so with that said what would you recommed?
Im planning on putting reflective mylar all over inside. OHHH, also i seen this 19.99 carbon filter at home depot and im thinking about just getting it to give it a try and placeing it somewere in side the grow part of the cabinet to see if it helps. my mom knows ima grow but not my dad ahaa so i still have to hide it from him.
Yeah i know that the cabinet is going to be VERYYY packed inside. i was planning on doing a SCROG, placing a screen ontop after the veg is done or a week before im nto 2 sure wen o place it im just esstimating. so overall how stupid am i in this soon setup? what should i change add or remove?
ALL HELP IS APPRICIATED AND ADVICE.
