i want to set up an enclosed grow room in my closet but i dont know what to use or do. i have some pictures of the room im able to work with but i want to try to keep it as small as possible. So any ideas or suggestions would be great, thanks.

my ideas for it
- enclosed and maybe attach a lock to it
- some sort of filter
- maybe a wood box with 4 wheels attached for easy moving
- a small reservoir on bottom and a tray on top for an ebb and flow system
- maybe use 8 CFL's in pairs of two where i could adjust them up and down
- i would prefer it to be wider and closer to the back wall
- build with wood, metal or something??
- have good circulation
- big enough for auto flower strains

also price really isn't an issue if its going to increase my yields

Grow Tent - Size S 20 x 36 x 64 - Silver Lined from http://www.htgsupply.com/viewproduct.asp?productID=54611 (pictures 1-3)
  • it fits my closet perfectly and i can grow more plants.
  • i also want to put a 400 W HPS light (picture 7)with maybe a cool tube. I don't know what to do about ventilation though. I was thinking this GrowBright 6" Inline Fan & Charcoal Filter Combo (pictures 4 +5), and another GrowBright 6" Incline Fan. with 2 Blower / Fan Speed Controls (picture 8 )

Ebb and Flow System (picture 6)
  • This is the Ebb and Flow System that I am thinking of using since it would fit in the grow tent

LMAO< you are an eBay fanatic. Anyway, there is all sorts of info on here for you to be able to build pretty much any kind of room,cabinet,closet,cloner,dehydrator,light fixture etc. I have no doubt you'll find what you need. Good luck and happy growing.

I think you can manage with a 4 inch fan they usually have about 130-150 cfm more than enough to clear out your room in a couple of minutes and to keep the noise down. The 400w should be perfect for that size of room, I had a 430hps in a 2x2x8 room and I didnt even need a exhaust fan only a canopy fan but then again the grow room had the top opened for ventilation. As for the hydro setup you might beable to make it cheaper than that price. I made a Deep Water Culture with a 40gallon resevior for about 70 bucks the air pumps where the most expensive part. So you could probly make it cheaper since you only need 1 water pump. Sorry I dont have all the information, Im still learning and putting together my room so best of luck.
