Hi All,
My set-up:
Puter Cab with 5 Fluoro bulbs: 4@27k & 1@65K w/multiple case fans on 18/6 schedule.
I use this after germination to get the girls growing.
Main grow cab: 17"w x 29"d x 41"tall. Mylar reflecting on three sides, door painted white.
-250w ballast with cool tube passive intake(outside cab) with S&P duct fan pulling thru filter venting outside
-Cool tube hung on pic frame wire able to be moved up and down
-main cab vented thru passive intake once again S&P duct fan pulling thru same filter venting outside
-temps stay in low 80's; Walgreen small humidifier in cab; temp & humidity gauge in cab; 2 small puter fans in cab for air circ.
-running 18/6
-growing dwarf auto fems in soft pots (short rider and green-o-matic)
-soft pots 3 gal.
I am currently two weeks plus in after germination and have just moved plants to main cab. Running MH 250w bulb in cool tube with 27k flouros(4 on Y's) in between pots. I have 3 plants going. 18/6.
?My question is do I need even to run the MH bulb or should I just go strait to the HPS bulb with maybe 65k flouros for extra help?
?Will the 250w bulbs throw enuff lumens with the footprint of my cab?
Thank you in advance...
