Hello good people!
So I've decided to grow my own plants. It'll be my first time grow. I've decided to document my efforts over on the 'Grow Journals' forum once I get started with the build. I've done a fair amount of research, and knocked up a design using Sketchup, but as we all know, theory is not necessarily going to work in practice. So my question to you good people is, do you think the following design will work?
The top chamber will be for budding and will house a 400w hps with an ebb and flow timed hydro set up. The exhaust vent up top will have a carbon filter installed over it and be vented passively through holes in the top of the unit. The bottom chamber will be used for vegging with two 125w cfls and a drip fed hydro system.
My plan is to have a perpetual grow where each time I'm ready to move from veg to flower I will take clones to replant in my veg chamber.
My main worry is i wont be able to keep the heat down in the bud chamber. If worse comes to worse I can install a second exhaust/carbon filter up top over the hps.
I'm hoping to grow some northern lights to get me started.
Any tips or advice greatly appreciated,
Peace.
