you are gonna need at least 2 feet of vertical growspace (i.e. from the top of your grow medium to the height at which you are too close to the light). This is is if you scrog. if no scrog then you will probably need even more height.

you can do it with HPS if you cool tube, and you can run a double cool tube if you run both inline. HPS will give you a better yield, and in my experience cfls are a pain to work with since you need so many bulbs. It will be warmer, so a cooltube is a must. I run a 250w hps and my plants can grow right into the cooltube without getting burned. I would recommend a good fan if you are going to be going thru a carbon filter since this can slow things down a bit. a cheap fan will get you cheap circulation. thats why I had to put 2 of them together to get enough flow. If you vent inside your house expect it to get warm.

if you are still planning on the double chamber, double light tube, then i would connect the 2 chambers at the top as well to allow the stinky air to get from the 2nd (in air flow) chamber, since there will be no opening in that one.

the nice thing about dual chambers is you will have a veg chamber and a flower chamber, so you can harvest every 2 months or so, you lucky dog

for your filter you are going to need a pretty decent fan. I don't think a computer fan will do it. and yes the 6" filter is fine, it's what i'm using for my cabinet.

a cool tube will eliminate heat issues for HID lights. I really recommend them over fluorescent--you get better, faster growth with HID, and most importantly, more bud. I know they might seem expensive, but think of it as an investment that pays you back in weed.

Sorry brah,

Been busy the past couple of days. Sounds like you're getting the hang of it. The key is research, research, and some more research.

Stay Fresh.

hmmm well I am just going to post more question the question above I have ether answer with other people post or just claim to my own conclusion.

Ok well I have permission from my rent to start a 4 seed grow to give me "exp" before I move out (they have limited exp growing indoor only outdoor)

They main question they brought up is space, if any strain (or most strains) will grow in a cab? Dimension you ask well I think I finally satisfied with my dimension.

They are:
Height- 3’ft (2’ ¾ of vert growing space)
Length- 3’ft
Depth- 1’ ½ or 1’ 3/4
