    i am soon constructing a new grow room and was wondering if air circulation needs to be drwn from an outdoor space or if just being drawn from another room in the basement is fine



    i also was wondering what the maximum number of plants i could grow in a 9 by 8 room if i have a seperate room for cloning and vegging

    If it's at least 5', do this: Use a light-tight partition to make 1 chamber 5' x 4', another that's 3' x 4'. Hang a 600-watt HPS in the smaller room, put a dozen 3-gal planters in there. Use 24/0 light.
    When 15" tall, put them into the bigger room under two 600-watt HPS, timer set at 12/12.

    Even better, take a clone off each plant in the smaller room when they're 8" tall, root the clones and sex them in the big room while the donor's are still in veg, toss the males and make more clones off the known females, for a never-ending supply of girls..

    the veg and clone room is 6 by 3 is this big enough to supply the flowering room and how much light is needed. also i heard fluorescent light is sufficient for vegging clones any truth to this?

    9x8=72 sq/ft
    72 sq/ft @ 50 watts p/sq = 3600 watts
    S.O.G at 1 sq/ft per plant=72 plants
