I plan on setting up a light mover for my flowering area. I have 3 600W air cooled HPSs. My flowering area is 3- x 13-15. I am going to put all three lights on my track. Any suggestions on how long I should make it (between 13 and 15 feet)? How far apart should I space the bulbs? I was thinking I probably dont want the bulbs to travel more than 4 from the ends. Any thoughts on this?
I am also going to explain more of my setup. Any comments, advice or tips will be appreciated. If you would like to know something else just ask.
My room is in an attic so I dont have much head room. I have bought 3x3 tables already. Using these tables (with reservoirs underneath) my plants need to finish at 20. This would leave about 10 to the glass of my lights. I plan on having 3 tables and getting a harvest every 3 weeks or less. I will be flowering right after my clones root. How short can I make this happen? Will I be able to finish at 20 without to much LST? My 3 tables will take up about 106. I would then like to have a couple feet for a few 5 gallon bucket DWC. I would be able to use this to flower mothers and or other plants. These plants could grow to 26 or so.
Also
I will be running a drip system for each table.
I have an AC. I should be able to keep a steady temp. year round.
I have a CO2 generator. I will keep CO2 ppm. around 1200-1500 during the day only.
I will have a small fan (6 inline) blowing fresh air in. Also a small fan will be blowing my AC exhaust out. This fan will be running even when the AC is off. So I will have a small but steady flow of fresh air.
I have one 400W MH for mothers. I will root 8 cuttings at a time. After rooted I will put them straight into flower.
