Hi guys,

To cut things short, I've grown outdoors for the past 3 years but have never plunged into the indoor scene.
Now that I'm moving indoors, I am planning on growing a couple autoflowers in a small tent.

Im interested in getting a Growlab 60 (2x2x5'3) with an air cooled reflector holding a 400W HPS.
I am also planning to ventilate it with 4 or 6 inch 300+ intake/ 600+ exhaust.

Anyway, first question, if the ventilation is suffice, should my temps be reasonable?

With an A/C reflector thats 22" wide in my 30" wide tent, will i have enough room to have 1 side ducted to an exhaust?
On the same note, will it make a huge difference if i run a 6" or 8" flange/ducting in such a small tent?

How much of a heat signature will a 2x2 space at 70-80 degrees?

I'm sure there is more to ask, I have a terrible memory when it comes down to posting on forums :P



Thanks to everyone in advance!
 
If the ventilation and intake air temperature is w/in the range you should be fine for temps. You should be able to work with the ducting, it's flexible, but a smaller reflector would probably work better and be sufficient. I would suggest regular seeds vs. autos. Put those outdoors or in a veg area.
 
I would really plan a 5000btu 99 dollar A.C. then everything is all set. with fan's you only move heat you do not cool! if ambient temp's hit 80 your space will ba at least 95+ an once of prevention you know? just moved indoor's my self, did not like the tent's so built small basement grow 4X4X7 I like mine better but I had planned on the cool tube and a 470cfm wind machine to remove the heat........like I said now 72 degree's circulates the air have Co2 boost buckets and bud's like outside! I would advise you find a spot out of the way and make it what you need! Good luck brother! jack...here's my 300 dollar build any question's ask me!
