will a 600mh cook my plants?
grow space is a cubord 3ft back, 5ft wide and 7ft tall,
how many plants should i grow?
painted all interior walls white and sealed all gaps, planning on putting about 5 computer fans in the grow space and in the walls of the cubord. carbon filter to take out smell.

You wont fry your plants just make sure that if you choose to grow a sativa straind it will grow taller than short bushy indica strains. It really all depends on your ventilation set-up and what your grow medium will be ....Hydro, Aero, Soil...I messed around with pcs fans before and 5 pcs fans wont allow you too cool that unit properly.

Whatever exhaust setup you use, be sure to use a thermometer to make sure your cabinet stays cool enough. About 72-76 farenheit is perfect for veg stage; some people say keep it like that the whole grow; some say raise temp to about 82-84 for flowering, and let it fall about 10-15F at night. I haven't had perfect temp control in my room, a few days in the 90's, a few nights in the low 60's..

A temp meter that shows minimum / maximum temp is a great tool.. only about $15-20

iv heard people saying i could do about 12 plants tho, but i dont know weather to do a load small or a few big... i thought it would be better to get em done small and fast because i thought there would be less chance of going wrong. am i right?
