Hey everyone,
New to the forum. Been reading here and there about different grow setups. I'm looking into either getting a grow tent, or maybe build a setup like the one found here: First time grower with custom box build (pics!)
Ok, my question is this. The only places I have to put the setup are in my room, or in a tool storage room that's under my deck. I'd prefer to be able to put it in the storage room under my deck because no one ever goes in there, and I can keep it padlocked. The problem is that it's not air conditioned or heated. Cold air can flow down between the boards on my deck, but other than that it's completely enclosed. Has a door, lock, etc. If I put a tent or cabinet type set up in there, is the heat from the light (looking at going with a 400w hps) going to keep the grow warm enough? It can get pretty cold outside. Right now it's about 20 to 30 degrees. Like I said, I can put the set up in my room, but I would prefer to keep it in a less obvious place. If you need any more info, let me know. I appreciate any responses!
EDIT: If I have an intake fan bringing in fresh air, the air will be cold, until spring obviously. I guess I could just choose to grow during the spring-fall, but would like to be able to grow all year long if I can.
