Hope everyone is doin fine. Here's the deal. Am growing for self, now with one plant, can't see growing more than 4 at most, maybe only two. Trying to hold costs down. Bought a Sunsystem Sunblaze T48 8 bulb fixture to veg my one donated clone. Have the thing hanging in a spare room, approx, 8x10, windowless. I have kept the room at proper temp and humidity by keeping door open with a box fan that acts as an exhaust, and a ceiling fan for circulation. It all has worked well and the plant has grown like a weed! (sorry, couldn't resist). Its in a 5gal container, plant is 16" tall, lots of side shoots, looks great. Have pretty much decided to switch to a HPS fixture for flowering (either 400 or 600 wts) and will use the flouro to veg new clones elsewhere. This is the best room to control light. I really don't want to put any vent holes in walls, yet can't leave door open to vent as it would let light in. I'm thinking, what if I hung black plastic to create a false interior wall a few feet in from the door, wall to wall. Do you think I could then run ducting through plastic at top and bottom for intake and exhaust. I could then run the ducting out the door into a hallway. If so, what are the cheapest fans to use for the intake and exhaust. The inline ones I see are pricey.This is a pretty big room for one light and a few plants. Other ideas?? Many thanks!
