i would love to grow, but i'm not sure as to what would be my best plan of attack. i plan on building a cabinet of some sort/size/shape. i have the following four options:
O1 (W: 60in/152.4cm D: 20in/50.8cm H: 55in/139.7cm)
* 8.3ft² / 1,200in² / 7,741.92cm²
* 38.194ft³ / 66,000in³ / 1,081,546.22cm³
O2 (W: 72in/182.88cm D: 48in/121.92cm H: 55in/139.7cm)
* 24ft² / 3,456in² / 22,296.73cm²
* 110ft³ / 190,080in³ / 3,114,853.13cm³
O3 (W: 36in/91.44cm D: 36in/91.44cm H: 42in/106.68cm)
* 9ft² / 1,296in² / 8,361.27cm²
* 31.5ft³ / 54,432in³ / 891,980.67cm³
O4 (W: 72in/182.88cm D: 48in/121.92cm H: 50in/127cm)
* 24ft² / 3,456in² / 22,296.73cm²
* 100ft³ / 172,800in³ / 2,831,684.66cm³
these are the dimensions i can work with. ideally i'd like to run a little ebb&flow setup inside one of these, possibly running a bunch of minis. if that seems unfeasible to anybody, soil would be my fallback. but again, running smaller plants probably 12/12 straight from rooted clones. i've seen some people run 12/12 straight from clone and they end up with like 1.5-2.5 foot tall plants that yield anywhere up to like 2oz.. usually closer to like .5oz a plant though. that kind of grow would be perfect for me. what kind of lighting would i need? i've seen CFL growers get about 2oz from a plant with less than 100w. should i go the CFL route since i'm only looking to grow minis? or should i try a small HPS (250/400)? ideally i'd like to grow 6-8 mini plants. getting like .5oz-1oz per plant would be awesome. i'm sick of wasting my money on the garbage passed off as dank around here. any feedback would be greatly appreciated...
