    Hey Phillip thanks for that mate. So looking at the plan and from what your saying i could fit 16 plants in 11 litre pots under one 600w light? I see from the design you have got them 9 under each if i had 100% germ success then i could easily fit them under also? I am going to look at a few...

    Spoke to the electrician briefly and he says that i shouldnt have a problem as the ring circuit for the sockets are 32 Amp and aslong as i dont exceed 13amps per socket then i will be ok. He did say that you possibly thought it wouldnt be possible as you are not converting it 240 volts. I did...

    That sounds about right for me. I am totally new and have not started a grow myself only know from what i have read not experience, but from your math it sounds right and i have read its better to go a little more than a little less when getting the fan to match your needs. Im sure someone with...

    to find out the fan to exchange the air correctly you want to look at the size of the room. Also add 10-15% per light and 20% for a filter and a little for ducting etc. This may help you ;) http://www.uk420.com/growroomtools2.php

    Thanks for the speedy reply. I will check about the electrics for you and get back to you ASAP, the point i marked is where i was looking at mounting the sockets etc and not the breaker panel.
