just got most of my shit to get this flowering room together today. spent a pretty penny. i am ganna section off a 8x5x8 area for the flowering room with black/white poly plastic. But heres what I picked up today.




2 ultra cool XL sealed reflectors 6 inch flange
2 600 w hps pulsar sunleaves ballasts
2 hortilux hps bulbs
270 cfm can fan
*****Ebb & Grow hydroponics system*****
more botanicare nutes
15 feet of double insulated ducting
some more rockwool, ect.


began setting up everything tonight and I am about to pee my pants. Ebb & Gro is a little confusing to set up but its coming along. the quality of the parts in this system and just the specialtyness of it make it worth the money. could have built one for cheaper but for everything it comes with it was def worth it. Got my reflectors all put together and sealed ready for hanging. just gotta get the area sectioned off and a 2x4 running the length attached to studs in the roof to hang the lights on. pics will soon be coming

Just curious, where did you get your hydro system at. I am going to have a slight height limitation and that system you have looks like it stays close to the ground. thanks

Your air cooling looks like shit. Try using insulated flex between the lights and exhaust. Do NOT try to force heat downward as you are doing in your pics. You can also insulate the top of your hoods with 1/4 thick foil backed foam tape that comes in 12" rolls at Home Depot. I do not see a fan pushing cool clean air into your hoods as I would have done so I assume you are pulling hot, stinky air down to ? The whole point of air cooled hoods is to keep your room cool, the way you have it set up is NOT going to operate at even half it's cooling potential.
