Alright so i have been saving up to build my dream grow room. I have around 4500 to spend and already have the space.
The room is a 7' x 14' space with 7 foot ceilings that was originally built to be a wine cellar. It has a water connection and electric running into the room.
Current Design:
- ebb and grow 12 plant system
- ez clone 30 site system
- Drip Feed Hydroponic System
- 2x GrowBright 8" Inline Fan & Charcoal Filter Combo (one for the room, one for the 3x 8" easycool reflectors)
- 2x 500 CFM Squirrel Cage Fans to bring cool air in from the basement, dont want a vacuum Flow IN = Flow OUT
- 3x Digital Electronic 600 watt HPS Grow Lights
- 3x EasyCool 8" Reflector
- SunMaster 600w HPS Bulb & SunMaster 600w MH Conversion Bulbs
- CAP CO2/Temp/Humidity Controller
- omniflect rolls for the walls, white tarp for the floors
- Reverse Osmosis Water Filtration System
The basement is unfinished and is about 1700 sq ft. I was planing on not running any duct outside to expel the heat. In the summer the basement is around 4-6 degrees cooler than the rest of the house. I was hoping that the space outside the grow room will remain cool enough to cool the grow room (if that makes any sense)
The grow room temps/ basement temps are my biggest worry because of the 3x 600 watt Grow Lights, so i was thinking about doing a LED System like this one:
High Tech Garden Supply
Maybe get 2x of the 300 watt LED Systems and one 600 watt HPS system instead of the 3 600 watt grow lights?
I know that the initial cost will be greater but the electricity savings/piece of mind should cover the cost. My only worry is my yield wont be very good if i do LEDs.......
The grow plan is to use the drip feed system to grow the mothers and then use the ez clone site to clone : ) and then move the clones over to the ebb and drip system when they are ready...... I figure the 600 watt HPS system should do about 4 plants, so 3 systems * 4 plants a system = 12 plants
Also could i use a CO2 system in the room or would the fans kill any gains i get?
I will be buying most of my equipment from HTGsupply in a few weeks since they seem to have good prices and are fairly close. Any suggestions?
