Equipment for grow room

Hi,
I'm about to construct my first grow room and was wondering if anyone can tell me if I have everything I need, also if the extractor fan is good enough to extract the excessive heat from the light.

Edit: With that extractor fan, how big can I make my grow room?

light
ballast
shade
bulb
timer/contactor
extension ? maybe

film to cover walls
hooks
wood and acro props if needed
hangers for the light

pots
trays
yoyos
stakes
watering can
water butt
plantfood
soil or medium
ppm meter

orbital fan
intake fan
outlet fan
ducting
carbon filter
temp gauge

then theres no end of shit like stable guns to get the poly to stick to the walls and vrs other items i cant be bothered to list , a grow room is what you make it , cut corners and you tend to end up buying shit loads of items , better to buy better outright

edit , oh and the fan , not possible to answer without knowing the dimensions , a meter squared then yeah your cool but bigger then ?

good tip buy a cheap fan and make a ballast cooling area keeps them cool too the touch and takes alot of stress off the parts meaning longer life

The " extractor" fan pictured is not suitable for the intended use. It is only suitable as a duct booster. It does not have a centrifugal impeller and will be overburdened by the static head loss of the carbon filter. Look for a centrifugal fan.

Moggggys gave you a good starting point... Man the lights, tent, seeds, fans, and shit are the easy part.. Then there's going to be literally dozens of small shit that you're going to need that'll add $$$$$ up... Most of which you'll find out about as you go and as you grow based on your particular setup, grow style, and security concerns... Make all of your big purchases online, and be prepaid to make several trips to your local hydro-store and lawn and garden shop...
