Im starting my first grow. I have to use the grow labs 16"x16"x55" tent due to compromise with my wife.
Im gonna use cfls for veg and really want a 150 watt hps for flowering for worthwhile results.
my only concern is heat. I can either go with the floralux and and using the 4" flange on top. But with the ballast attached would it be worth the trouble. It also has the smallest deminsions I've found. A sun system would fit but no cooling option.
Htg sells a 150 with a remote ballast, would the bulb alone be managable heat wise?
I'd go led but for over 2x the price for probably half the performance. I've ruled it out.
Any thoughts on the situation?
im thinking i could modify the floralux hood with another flange on the end of the unit, hang it diagonaly in the tent to give room for the ducting on the end, also i could go to my 4"x8" can filter. Thoughts on this?
