I have a cabinet that measures 5.75' tall, 2.2' wide, and 1.6' in depth. So my square feet is 3.5. Plan to divided it by a shelf making top half 3.75' tall and same W and D dimensions and the bottom half 2' tall with same W and D. Using the top half for flowering and bottom for veg.
Questions:
1. Will a 400w hps work for the top half equals out to be 14,285 lumens per sq ft. Is this too much? Going to use t5 ho cfl light system on bottom for veg producing 2,900 lumens per sq ft is this the best choice giving that have only 2' of height to work with?
2. What kind of fan system to use? Was thinking 1 4" exhaust fan with carbon filter at the top half, and one 4" intake fan coming in from bottom with hole cut in the shelf so exhaust can be pulled from both top and bottom levels?
3. Was going to use dwc setup growing in the sog method starting from seed in beginning but using clones from bottoms of plants when I get up and going. Using GH floro performance pack for nutrients.
4. I will be moving plants to flowering once they reach 10"-12" and plan to flower for 8-12 weeks?
Any answers, thoughts, or comments are appreciated.
