Alright guys and gals, I finally built a 7x7 grow room. I have 5 more seeds coming so I will have 10 total in 7 gallon pots. Adjustable Double scrog net set up will be done soon at 4x4 squares I already have the frame up. I'm just waiting on 4 way connectors so each scrog is level, also waiting on my electric sky es300's to come in I got 4. Going with LST and topping to train and scrog. Also getting a small dehumidifier for the room. Looking for suggestions on how to make this room better and thank you for all suggestions!! Running 5 Gelato and 5 Exodus cheese20210618_220648.jpg

My room framed in 8x12 and my set up about like yours, I run 5 down the center of each aisle, gives you room to walk around to feed and train and top, makes maintenance and scheduled routine alot easier, I run 12 inches between pots.

Nice set up, what's your yield usually. Do you train them at all?

Very realistic harvest goal with your setup and pot size. You might even get more than 50 zips. Setup looks good. Like the double scrog net idea. Some plants flop badly in late flower.

How tall is your tent? Also, are those lower vents open and are these autoflowers?

If they aren't autoflowers, I'd recommend closing them and taping them up and instead creating a passive intake for fresh air to be cycled in through. Passive intake being some intake tubing with a filter or even a few bends to block light out. Those vents on the lower side of each wall will leak light and odors during flower which may cause hermaphrodite plants/seeds unless you're cup checking every limb. But if they're autoflowers though then it shouldn't matter.

If they aren't autoflowers, how high are you going to veg them?

7 Gallon pot size seems ideal; I'm running 5 gallon AutoPots in my 6x6.

I think you may want to upgrade to the AC Infinity T8/8" Charcoal Filter though.

Post a new pic when you get the new lights in! Looks great so far! I'm skeptical but optimistic just the same for you on your 50oz goal.

Hey thanks!! I'm dying for the lights to come in and I called the electric sky company and Dan said late June they should be shipped so fingers crossed. I will post a new pic for sure. Not sure on veg height yet thats why I kept across netting adjustable for different stains and what not. The vents are all sealed off with string and velcro patches on the outside. Just ordered raised pot pads for aeration purposes as well. If I get 5 oz a plant I'll be happy for a first harvest.

Those version 3 look fantastic, but would think the horizon would be even better split in two for wider coverage.
There just so narrow but do the job.

I'll bring up the White elephant Question, because after you starting 2 or 3 threads today for the same thing....that's how I roll...lol

Very nice setup, so I assume you've got quite a few grows , successful ones, under your belt, if your shooting for 50 oz harvest

Honestly have just done alot of research and built what I know within my spending limits to be the best setup I could make. I've never grown indoors...I just thought 5 oz per plant was a feasible expectation.

So I have half ocean forest and half pro mix for soil. I'll be watering with pond water. I haven't decided on nutes but have had good luck with grow big Fox Farm liquid fertilizer then switch to a flowering style fertilizer. I've been reading about the powder supplements just watered in through the soil. May try them this time
