I have started construction on a space(few pics attached) that is around 78"(L)x68"(W), the height at the higher part is 98" then the lower part is 73", I'm using greenboard drywall for walls(used in bathrooms) mylar covering every inch of the room except floors and wall to seperate the veg/flower room, which will be black or white plastic or ideas?) now I'm wondering how I should cut this in half for a veg (mother/clones) and flowering room, I have a 1000w hps for flower and 400w mh for veg, my exhaust fan(which is for both rooms,use a splitter) is rated at 675 cfm. I was thinking about using the higher side for flowering and sticking the 1000w near the angle without a hood. Any ideas would be great, ask me questions if I forgot anything. Plus this is only going to be till next summer/fall the latest then I am moving to bigger and better things!
Oh and this is basically what i will be using for my mothers and flowering, just not as many baskets https://www.rollitup.org/do-yourself/156863-grow-2-lbs-2-x.html
and looking at this for my cloner https://www.rollitup.org/attachments/hydroponics-aeroponics/209611d1223219890-harvest-pound-every-three-weeks-aeroveg.jpg
Plus if you can see in the third pic there is a little small space that is 20"x10.5"x80" maybe stick my exhaust in there? or germination station with some cfl's? both? I dunno, hope to be started by the end of the year, maybe earlier depending on Christmas.

definitely going to want to use the higher part for flowering as your plants will be substantially larger/taller, generally 2-3 times as big as when flowering is induced....you seem to be on the right track though, best of luck to you

Definetely sound like you've got things lined up for a good setup/grow... As mentioned remember plants will double or triple in size once you enter flowering... Keep in mind the height of the light and any space above it to the ceiling that doesn't count towards the total room you have for your plants to grow upwards... Plus you'll want some distance between the light and the canopy...

Figure out how much room you have... If you've got 3 feet to work w/ (pot not included)... flower them when they are about a foot tall... that should put you in a good range...

Good Luck to you! and happy tokin!!!

hey guys I am just about to put up the visqueen and get the flower room rollin', just really waiting on my buddy to finish up electrical side(need more power!), but we built it kind of fucked, didnt think of it as we were building, the main room roof is slanted big time so we had to work around it. By the shape of the the room only so much will be getting the right amount of light (check photos, taken from back wall/door) what the fuck should we do? Same space between where roof is right angled. Should I just leave the light even with lower roof? Should I hang the light vertical? I was going to make a cool tube plus use a carbon filter on the end so horizontal is the way I had planned on hangin it. Ive got a 1000w HPS any suggestions? Maybe Ill hold off the cool tube at first. Need some help ready to roll!! Room is 98" Long x 42" Wide x 92" Highest Point/ 75" Lowest Point.
