Ok guys....please look over my design (click on attachment "Tomato Garden" below and tell me if I missed anything. A few questions I have:
1. Could I get away w/just pulling air in passively from the utility room (not temp controlled air) w/out pulling it in from my actual home (temp controlled air)--the utility room shares a wall w/an inside room of my house, so I'd just have to cut a hole in the shared wall. There are no vents or windows in the utility room, just a locking door that you enter from outside of the house
2. Is it necessary to vent the hot air into the dryer duct or can I just have it go up into the attic freely (it's a big spacious attic--thinking about infrared detectors though)?
3. Can I safely plug my 400w digital MH/HPS ballast and oscillating fan into the same 120 v regular wall socket w/out worrying about fire, overheating, popping a circuit breaker? The breaker box for my whole house is also in this utility room, but I don't know much about wiring electricity--I'm actually not 100% sure there's even an outlet in the utility room, may have to put a hole in the shared wall to run electricity from inside my house
4. If no to #3, are there any type of "in-line" circuit regulators that you can plug your equipment into and then it plugs into the wall socket?
5. For extra stealthiness, do you all think I could actually place the Dark Room 80 inside of a large wooden cabinet?
6. This is for personal use/small grow (4 max)---is all of the equipment I chose appropriate or is some of it overkill (cooling tube/reflector hood?)
Thanks a ton guys!!!
