Need Help on Room Design (have a paintshop pic with specs)

[Chronmon]

Hey Watsup Peeps at Icmag im pretty much new to Growing but ive been readings the site for a couple months now for prepartion on a project I will be starting. So I shall provide a Picture illustrating my Lay out and some of the Specs of it.

I will be doin a Hydro setup obviously and im Leaning towards the Bio-Buckets because Big Tokes Tutorial was so informative but Ive also thought about Freedom Buckets also so help me chose one please. My Budget for this project will be 20,000. I have thought about incorporating a Generator into my setup but I am yet to find any solid info on how I would incorporate one efficiently and safetly.

What I was thinkg of doin in that unused space is building a Small Room Sealing it up and Putting a Generator in there. I would like to no if I decide to do this how would I filter out all the carbon monoxide. I was told when I asked a friend that it was not possible because I would have to change filters every half hr.

My next Questions is how many Bio-Buckets would I realistcally be able to fit in a Area like this?

I also forgot to add in the Pic that there is a mid-sized Storage space to the Right of the Entry Door that I could probably use for clones and possible Vegging

Yea thats good and all thanks for your Opinion but do you think if that was the plan I would of bothered wasting my time making this Thread ? I think between me and my Partner We will be able to figure this out with a little help from the ICmag Community.

Come on guys help a Brotha out!

How many plants do you plan on? Ceiling hight? Visability from steet or air (police infrared detection) my advice is to keep it small to start with,and the answers will come to you as you go. We went all out on our first grow (1k grow 3k bud)
and have been litteraly running to keep up with all thier needs. You want to beable to heat & cool the space , provide adaquit ventilation, lots of light, and lots of love. Peace

Thanks for the Advice the height of the Ceiling I is either 7 or 8' cant remember so say 7.5' the Location is underground so lower ceilings. I was hoping to do to 2 Flowering Rooms with 14-18 buckets each room Im not sure if this is practical or not though so if anyone does no fill me in.

Also I would really like some Info on Generators and if I could use one to increase my yields. I would also like to no the cautions when using one and saftey and security measures while using one. Like I said I have Money to play with so im open to as many suggestions as you guys have.

The 2 rooms are Connected so we decided to knock a Hole threw the middle and put a Standalone AC right in the middle.

And to Clarify im new but I have a few friends I get advice from and what not that are some what experienced. But for 1. I do not want anyone who does not have to be at the Grow Place to be there and 2. I really dont want to let too many people no what im doing unless its a must. This is why im relying more on the ICmag Community for Tips and Pointers.

Cheers Cm

IMHO I would'nt go with more then 6-10 plants per 1000watt hps for flowering depending on how tall they are & whether you split the tpo once or twice. So there quite a difference ,as far as plants/light between short w one top and 6' w 4 main tops. We have 2-1000 watt HPS & 2 400 watt hps for 8 plants @ 6' + that have 4 tops in a 7'-4"x 7'-0" w 8'-4" ceiling ht and those lights are @ highest adjustment . and alo depends on what strain you choose, we have bogs life saver @ day 47 of budding with an expected yeild of 450 g /plant @ 63.5days in flower (approximatly, as Spock would say) this stratigy is for a sativa dominat strain, its been 25 years since I'e grown Indica so I'm clueless in that area. Hope this helps & good luck Peace

I don't know if it'll help you, but check out the construction and grow threads in my sig, maybe you can get some ideas...

Are you planning on using both bedrooms? If so you may want to consider a flip-flop light system, it'd cut down on the number of ballasts you need and also eliminate the spike in power usage. Peace...

Yes were planning on both Rooms Thanks for the headsup on the Flip-Flop Seems like it would make more sense and take away any Peices to LEO's puzzle

 

[DB2004]

Need a Flip-Flop, let me know. I custom build Flips, Timers, Load Centers, Controllers, Thermal Shutdowns, etc. Whether you're using standard AC receptacles and lamp cords or proprietary, like Sunlight systems....

Yeah, I see you spent lots of valuable time creating this very detailed and well-planned thread. Maybe you should get in touch with wallstreet_wook, and he might hook ya up with his design team, maybe even his security staff.

 

[capncrunchn420]

Do you want help with designing a room? Or do you want someone here on IC to do it for you?

And, I maybe wrong on this, but you seem like a kid that wants to grow weed and become a hotshot dealer. Two rooms? 160 square feet? Thats potentially alot of weight, with alot of juice. I would think about security before actually growing. Polysheild, stuff like that.

 

[Guest]

you mentioned other people know you are gonna grow.

ok dont grow there since there is a security leak.

maybe tell people you changed your mind and do a closet grow. once you get that under your belt go ahead with your other plans.

 

[capncrunchn420]

If you were intent on using a generator, just hook the exhaust up to an exhaust fan and suck it out of there with the rest of the old air.
Electricity is alot cheaper then gas or deisel tho, Plus some generators only run for 9.5 hours at half load, and a generator that could run for a full 18 hours at least to supply enough juice to light both rooms, sounds expensive.

For 20K, you can do the whole thing in a 24 ft tandem axle trailer, and the generator would seem normal.
