All-right, I have decided to share the build of my new 3x3x7 grow space.

Goal: Achieve a sealed co2 enriched space without ac. Don't know if it will work, I'll give it my best shot

Equipment:
Digi 600 Ballast
600 watt hps
7 variable speed computer fans
1 oscillating fan
1 100cfm intake fan with back-draft damper (can fan/insulated for noise)
1 160cfm extraction fan with back-draft damper (can fan/insulated for noise)
1 260 cfm fan for light cooling (can fan/insulated for noise)
1 cooltube
30 gal external res
20 pound co2 tank
co2 regulator/ counter
The plants will be pump fed via a drip manifold

Most of my equipment is still tied up in my current grow, so I will post pics of progress and as my equipment becomes available

Feel free to comment!

That's a proper job you done there Unity, no wonder your Black Domina looked so good, it grew in a 5 star hotel! I'm not sure I understand why you insulated the outlet ducting.

I have got a bit more done today and might be ready to start flowering the 3 biggest plants tonight. it depends on me getting some plastic sheeting to seal the flower room off.
I got my new HPS today and it has thrown a spanner in the works. The ballast is built into the light fitting and weighs too much to hang where my current one is so now I will have to veg where I wanted to set up the flower room. I have took a couple of pics and will put them in my gallery in a minute.
Oh yes, I managed to make use of the cooker hood for an extractor, I just need to run some ducting off it.

The external ducting is insulated for noise

Ahh right, that makes sense, I thought you was insulating the heat and couldn't see why.

Yes, I can dream of that, but it would seriously push me over my 8 plant limit. I have kids and a wife and have to stay on the low down

Well, the moment of truth has come and I have to admit I'm failing miserably at achieving my goal (no ac/ sealed room)
I think what makes this impossible is the heat radiation transfer as well as the excessive humidity build up.
So, I got an 6000BTU AC (check pics)

This is where I'm at with my equipment:

- Drain to waste set up (I'll have to dial it in still)
- Chiller (ambient is now 73 in my garage, the chiller only has to bring it down 3 degrees)
- AC (maintains 77 degrees and 50% to 60% humidity)
- 600 HPS (digital ballast less heat in the cab)
- X-tra Sun Reflector (believe it or not but it cools better then my Cool Tube)
- Co2 Counter/Controller (on1350/off1600)
- 30 Gallon Res.

Today I'm left with dialing it all in, camouflage a bit (build it out some more so the ac is hidden, pics will follow)
I also want to add up what this shit all costs, so I can get ripped for how much more I could have gotten if I had done it your way,lol)
Check out the screening in the shots, I love it, now I can look at my babies without freaking about the bugs,lol)

Happy smoking mates,
Unity

Thanks Blunts, I hate to admit failure, or ignorance, witch ever sounds better My problem is that with the higher temps my bud will not get very tight and that's what I want. So, my choice was easy, spend the extra $250 for the ac
