Indoor Setup
    #228777 - 05/20/09 09:01 PM (15 years, 9 months ago)

I'm very new to growing this being my first actual year of my own plants, I've got 5 total and want to take 3 indoors. Basically I just need a little insight to whether or not this is a good idea.

I'm growing my plants in pots with a soil mix and am using nutrients.
I was going to take a small cabinet probably 3'x3'x4'
Then I was going to hang 2 fluorescent lights inside maybe more, I'd like to have 200w for 3 seedlings. Then I think all I'd need was a fan which I have, and some mylar.

I think that would be good, am I missing anything?

Nice, I definitely need something bigger than a comp fan. Im gonna run to the store today and pick up pvc piping for a grow cabinet frame, some mylar, and a fan.

I don't know what black and white poly/panda is. I was going to use this plastic that is basically extremely thick black garbage bag, then have mylar on the inside.

As for the fan, I was thinking of having a carbon filter on the top, and have a hole in the side of the cabinet with a sleeve of fabric coming out and over a small fan. I think that would work just fine.

Ok, thanks. I think I got the fan problem fixed too, "hole in the side of the cabinet with a sleeve of fabric coming out and over a small fan."
I'm gonna pick up some compact fluorescent bulbs, at least 60 watts per plant. I was aiming for 70 watts for each of the 3 I want to put indoors.

My friend said that I could flower them in there too. Do you think most of the stink would be kept in or neutralized by the carbon filter?

Well I just took measurements and I've got 30"x20"x60" to work with. I think I can fit a nice little pvc pipe frame in there, but I'm wondering how I'm going to attach a carbon filter onto the side of what is pretty much just thick plastic, any suggestions on how to suspend it?
 
Oh and do you know how many watts that light is?

So do you think a negative ion gen with a few of those ona odor blockers would be enough to neutralize the stench of 4 mature plants?

So I think I'm gonna invest in a HPS light. A found a nice one online that would be perfect for 4 mature plants with maybe some seedlings.

http://www.growlightexpress.com/grow-light-systems-2/sun-system-2-hps-400-watt-7.html The ballast and reflector are one unit.

Either of these would be good

http://www.growlightexpress.com/hps-mh-bulbs-7/high-pressure-sodium-29/ushio-400-watt-hps-hilux-ahs-opti-red-lamp-593.html

Does anyone have any comments on any of these products?

Thats exactly what I was going to get, I think HPS might be a little too expensive for me right now tho.
