Room Size and Light Area Question

[sega2223]

I have a 6x7x8' (LxWxH) room that i want to set up a 3.5x3.5 ebb and flow table under a single 600w HPS light.

The room would allow me to add a second 3.5x3.5 and 600w light, but until then, I would be operating a 3x3 grow area in the larger room.

If I can add a third "floating wall" to surround the growing are on three sides for light...do you see any disadvantage to having it in the larger room?

Appreciate anyones feedback on this (i am new...). Thanks.

Bigger room is generally easier to keep your temps in check. You could hang some mylar curtains to keep the light focussed on the plants. Or split the room and have a veg table and a separate flower table.

I would just add another 600 in a 7x7 room and use the rest of the space for veg, odor control, electrical, etc etc etc. The light would cross each other a bit and help out.

thanks for the feedback guys. I was thinking along the same lines screwnuts with the bigger being able to keep stable. I have a seperate veg room (3x4) which will do for now.

thanks also anthonytaurus, I am keeping it to 1 light for now, but the room is set to double if I decide to go that way.

peace.
