Grow room big enough?
mrkhyzhastarted grow question 5 years ago
Can i fit a grow box inside a cabinet witch is 70cm (length) x 100cm (height) x 38 cm (depth)? That leaves me with about 0.266 m2 (2.8 ft2). Also wondering if i can just stick mylar to the walls inside and that will be good enough?

Quick item to remember as well, you'll need to ventilate it without letting light in.

Your main issue will be any kind of light fixture, either mh, sodium, clf, led or whatever, will take 25-30cm (bare minimum) so only 70cm to grow, and you will have the exact same requirement for the growing medium, a minimum of 25-30cm for the soil or water container, so that leaves you with a minimum space for optimum growing.
My grow tents are Homebox Q60, so 60x60x120, and even 120 was really short for regular growing plants. I extended it to 180 and that's a lot better, given the sizes of the pots and leds and hanging fixtures.
Hope you're able to optimize it to maximum with your restrainments!
Happy smokes!

It will be tough. In this case, you'll actually need a weak light because they will grow right up to it. CFLs are probably your best bet, or a super flat dimmable quantum board. Get 100% indica seeds or a stain like Low Ryder. It can work but your yields will be small and you will constantly be fighting heat, humidity, and airflow problems. It will take a lot of skill, but I bet you can make it work! Keep us updated with a journal!

My tent is 32"x32"x63". I've only ever done one plant at a time. This time I am attempting to share the tent with a hydroponic grow in a 5-gallon bucket. I normally grow soil in a 5-gallon smart pot. Should I use a 3-gallon instead? Last grow the 1 hydro filled the tent.Week 2

Encouraging heightI just raised my 900w led to 39". Feeding every day about .3 liter. It looks like she will have 8 main colas after the 4-way top but I'm concerned about height. Should I wait for 4 nodes on the new colas and then switch to flower maybe? Thanks for the great advice as always!Week 9

Hydroponics and tent height issuesI'm looking into hydroponics, and have been looking at the GHE waterfarm. But worried that with a pot being 37cm and my tent being 120cm, I'll run out of space. At least having to turn down my light to prevent bleaching or heat damage. Any advice on this?Week 1
