you think we could only get a couple plants in box that size? i measured his room and i think the cab would be 8 feed wide and 2.5 or 3 feet deep. That seems like a lot of room to me. I was looking at one thread that the cabinet looked to be about 2.5x1.5 and it looked like he had like 4 plants.

sq foot to lumens is based on how much room your plants take up, right? You wouldnt need that many lumens if you plants only took up a quarter of your cabinet.

What do you guys do for ventilation, we have a window we can vent out, but i don't want some obvious ductwork hanging out the window that the neighbor can see. Also we need a way to keep they window open, but not have anyone break in and rob the place


how much does a hps cost? Aren't they a few hundred? You can buy a lot of $1 cfl for a few hundred dollars
