Hi Just starting this thread so I can keep track of my build with pics and organize my ideas. I am building some 4x4 LED fixtures (actually 47"x 40"). I am going to play 4 630W CMH 8x315W bulbs in between the LED lights to give some UV and I just love the way the bud grows with CMH and give some radiant heat to the girls.
The room is 9'9" wide X 17' long X 10'6" ceiling. It's got a 1/2" copper water line and valve coming into the wall around the middle of the right-hand side.
This model is to scale of the room and my lighting fixtures so hopefully everything should fit like this. This is 144 pots, I could probably sneak in some more at the sacrifice of access and convenience. Each LED fixture is capable of 756W thought I will likely have them dimmed to about 640W until the last couple weeks of flower maybe, or we'll see how it goes. The room is sealed.
I am planning to use CO2 after the winter (when we stop having free cold air). I don't have the A/C yet but planning a minimum of 36,000 BTU I HAAAATE fighting temps. This room is insulated tighter than a nuns cunt right now. I got a 500w work light from home depot and that keeping the room toasty with an ambient outside temp of roughly 0-4*C. Getting a full Trolmaster system quoted to control CO2 and lighting/emergency dimming.
Happy to hear any suggestions or ideas on how to utilize the space better. I was thinking of getting the water outside the room but that complicated the feed setup requiring heating currently unheated (and uninsulated) areas etc. My hope is to achieve a very high-efficiency room that makes great quality bud. Rows are staggered to allow the door to open. Fixtures are shown at a height of 7' ft from the floor. This may be more like 5' in reality. although I am thinking about running them high up DE style but I am too dumb to figure out the light spread right now. Also was thinking of a better reflector for the CMH lights to spread the light out more.
