Sealed environment design

[ssgreenthumb]

I have been working on a design that will ultimately be powered by an off grid solar panel system. As titled, it will be a sealed room and i am looking for any input to any flaws that I may have overlooked. Please before anyone comments with terms like "overkill" and similar this is a DREAM set up. As it has no limitations of operation I will not give it any limitations of cost. Autoflowers will be the crop of choice and light cycles will be set for 24/0. Please look over the following and tell me what you think. I thank you in advance for any advice you may give. If all sounds good I plan on finding the appropriate size solar panel system to finish off the set up. Please add any input to this aspect as well if you have any.

Looks good. If you get it all together you should definitely post a journal.
Good luck.

How many 400w LEDs will you be running? My setup is basically the same but on a smaller scale. Will be tuning in to track your progress and learn some things!

Hi SSgreenthumb,

Welcome to 420 Magazine and community of members that gathers here.

I have to admit that I'm impressed with your proposed set up. It's not often that growers have the opportunity to approach a grow with as much budgetary freedom as you. I too would love to follow along should you decide to begin a journal.

Curious as to what led you to select the Pro-Grow lights? I ask because I'm toying with replacing my HID with an LED and am finding it difficult to sort through "good" vs. "less good" lights/manufacturers out there. Seems for every example of a glowing review I can find on a particular light/manufacturer, I find one or two less than glowing review.

Be well and again to
