Okay, so i messed around with a 400w HID and got no where. so i ordered a 600w hps and started to get my room ready for some real vegetation.

I lined the entire room with 7mil plastic except for the doorway which surprised me by how much of a vacuum it still created.



Those little guys were planted on the 19th of November which makes them 3 weeks old today. i've keeping a constant temp of 76deg and 45% humidity pretty stedily.



Its underneath a stairway so im planning on using this for early veg and build a light barrier.





Mylar up so i dont have to do it when the HPS is up.



So far i have just been using one shop light with two 40w fluorescent bulbs.

Anyone can feel free to post and comment, ill try to keep this updated as possible. ill put finished pics when i get the hps and air vent installed.

dank,

you may consider put the plastic on the floor too. Then staple them (with little cardboard squares between staple and plastic for extra strength) up the walls a couple inches. This serves two purposes. 1. spills, 2. the carpet may hold humidity (mold) and smell.

looks good. i use a 600watt too and it rocks for a room that size.

I'm going to duct a 6' outlet that will draw air with a 125cfm inline from the top of the room and hopefully pull enough air from underneath the doorway. along with an osculating fan. like I'm using now, and leaving the door open for fresh air when i'm around.

My main grow dimensions are 5x5x5. I'm going to use the low end of the closet to start clones and hopefully get a nice cycle going.

oh and the 400w HID i used had a shitty partially fried ballast so i couldn't use it.

How many plants can i expect to grow in that area?

for how much longer should i be running 24/7 on the plants?

thanks everyone for the comments

ok. my opinion is this: grow nine plants to 2.5 feet tall then flower. if they grow bushy you are set, if not try topping and pruning to shape it so that your plants really fill the 25 square feet. and i'd switch to 18/6 after a couple weeks from germ.
