This is everything i'll be getting + pots + seeds. Everything should come up to roughly £600 and i will be buying a cloning kit later on in my grow. So what do you all think of my set up? Would everything fit together? Are the fans and carbon filter a good choice and the acoustic ducting tape?
Also, what do you guy think on pots? How many should i flowering in the tent and what size pots should i get?

Thanks for reading

you bought all that stuff and dont know how many plants you are going to grow? lol, sorry but you put your cart before the horse my friend.

sounds cool but im to stoned to take it all in, look forward to see you growing, get some hammerhead pk 4-8

oh no, i havnt bought this all yet, im thinking of buying this.
O am planing on growing 9 plants in 11ltr pots but i wanna hear other peoples suggestions aswell.

Well a couple of things you might look want to add:
You will want a 6" axial fan for your exhaust to add to your 6" (extractor) inline fan.
And theres your reflective materials which arent required but you will want later
A ph tester
Also I didnt see a Veg light for propagation unless your planning on doing one session every 3 and a half months
Humidity dome
Choice of pesticide and preventitive pesticide (neem)
Bamboo Poles
Plant Saucers for under your pots
Micro mister for foliar feeding
Those are just few things that caught my eye hope it helps

Besides That I would I would get a smaller carbon filter since your only using 9 plants

Thanks for your advice. What are exhaust fans for? and the grow tent has a 95% reflective inner mylar layer. As for the veg lights, i'm planning on just using a hps bulb for veg and flower on my first grow. Once i sell some of my crop and have some money, i'll be getting a 400w mh light and another smaller grow tent for veg and cloning. Would a 400w light be suffient to veg and clone in a tent? Also what are bamboo poles and plant saucers?

poles are to tie your heavy branches up so shit dont break. the saucers are for spillage bro. lol water runs...and yea i do all mine with a 400w and a 150w hps lights.... right now i got 6 plants under them... i run a couple extra cfls when i flower... but thats just for bottom lights and the mixed spectrum of lights. not really needed i dont think...

Oh cool, i guess i'll need the saucer but i dont know if i'll be needing the poles 100%. My plants may not be falling over everywhere lol

Lol..cart before the horse...I always do that...it's hard to put a good room or tent together. Stick to 8 plants max for the first run as you get it dialed in you'll get more in there...the 600w foot print is perfect for that tent. Good luck and 600 pounds damn your wallet is deeper than mine.

nahh just plants... dont overthink it.... you got a good setup... now fine tune it. lol get your heat right and your humidity right before you play with nutes or anything like that. that's what i was taught. get the biggest issues to address out of the way. then experiment with how plants react to things you want to change...

If it's not too personal a question, would you mind telling me how much that setup cost?

Not looking to start any arguments or whatever just curious.

EDIT LOL nevermind I now see you already mentioned it.

Trainwreck. 'nuff said.

lol Uncultivated
Thanks for your feedback guys
@Icannabis What size pots you think i should have? I'll be doing from seed and then start cloning fuckin LOADS so i'll be needing diff pot sizes right since root systems from clones are much smaller than seeds. I'm just gonna be saving up for the £600 since i dont have to buy all of this stuff until later on this year =D

@dantheStonerMan Theres not much i can really do about heat and humidity yet since i dont have any of this yet. Heat should be fine since i'll be getting a good extractor fan and so i doubt the room will be getting too hot and if it does, i can always get fan speed controllers right? Which should make the grow tent warmer. I'm not sure about humidity though, i guess i just have to hope its fine when i start growing and deal with any problems i have then. Thanks for your input

Cocco is not my area...but the general rule is 1 gallon per foot somebody correct me if I'm wrong. And as far as clones not developing large root mass haven't experience this the opposite is true for me. Good luck man
