current situation: 3 plants in 5 gal. containers in a medium sized closet.
current lighting: 1 600w hps for ALL stages of growth/flower
Proposed change in situation: 4 plants in 3 1/2 gal. containers
proposed chane in lighting: 3 80w UFO's & 4 15w led bulbs
I already own the UFO's and am rebuilding the closet.
I am looking for feedback BOLTH positive and negative BUT ALL CONSTRUCTIVE!!!
My goals are less heat.
I have tested this and there TRUELY is NO heat build up beyond a few degrees. The 600w hps raises it 16 to 20 deg. This will eliminate the need to exaust out into the cold -20 deg outside and forming an ice clowd. Other pro's are that I can bring in fresh air from the house to the closet and not the rapidly chainging air from the outside (I live in a COLD state) I also want to perfect a simple indoor grow situation apealing to renters that gives personal smoke, not for retail and will not be a fire hazzard by heat, lights or power overload.
Yes, I understand that there will be a longer flower time and smaller yield. those are side effects that can be debugged AFTER the grow environment is studied and perfected.
I would like MP forum members to be part of that. I will be the wallet and you all be the brains. Pictures will acompany an extensive journal and all input will be read and considered. Any one interested in helping???
