OK, I hope this doesn't get too complicated, and I actually feel ashamed to ask because I used to work in the power generation industry, and moving air was a big part of what we did, BUT I'm plum stymied. I am using a sort of 1/2 upstairs to bust a quick double crop and get the hell on with my life in a new town (on the beach, baby), near my favorite place in the world, New Orleans (where I'm going, NOT where I'm at now).
I live very close to some very fine, very inquisitive Christian neighbors, and odor control is not just imperative, but IMPERATIVE. I plan on using both of the rooms at the same time to quickly show an auto flower movie, while simultaneously starting the germ and veg cycles of some higher yielders (maybe a few WW and Blueberry for me, and I am still undecided about the main feature suggestions would be nice Ill share if I see you on Bourbon Street Ill be the guy with the ukulele playing zydeco).
Im going to use the center closet as a common scrubbing plenum for both rooms. I am actually hoping for MASSIVE overkill on this. I am using a large ozone generator and an air purifier (just because I have one) in the closet to pretreat the air. I am also building a large carbon scrubber with a blower. At the exhaust, Im using Ona gel (laundry scent) in a small inline cage, before venting to the outside through a 4 pipe.
Question 1 The scrubber Im using screen printing screens with loose carbon pellets (around 5 screens) in an enclosure with a blower pulling from the bottom, and out to vent. This should work, Right?
Question 2 Heat I am using 2000W in room 1 and 600W in room 2. All of the lights are inline, BUT, its fixing to get cold where Im at (a big reason to move south), and the attic is mostly uninsulated. If I just pumped (or passively allowed) cool air into the main chamber, do you think I could avoid running separated ducts for the lights. I am trying to keep the air flow as simple as possible so as not to short circuit my plenum. What if I literally just pointed an air-conditioning ducts across the tops (like a cool mountain breeze)
Question 3 - I have never worked with autos before. Is it unrealistic to think I could get 30 plants in these areas (tight Scrog), and say in 5 weeks start the phase 2 plants (everything is from seed if I have time Ill take a few good clones, but Im just spending the money on fems cus I need to move fast about 8-10 months), and sort of find spots for the rest for the next few weeks until the autos are ready.
MAIN QUESTION I am missing something about this plenum setup, but I cannot figure out what it is. The rooms themselves will be sealed, resealed, wrapped in plastic, resealed, and heat-sealed (seriously). Aint nothing get in der boys and girls cepten what I want (practicing my NOLA accent). Is my math all screwed up in being able to use a 4 vent on this, because I can vent other places if I need.
OK here are the plans. I just feel like Im missing something.
