Shopping List

[Guest]

Setting up a innside grow. A so called "I dont wanna do it myself project"

I was thinking of buying a Homebox XL
Fit a 600 watt (digital ballast) in there
I will also need a carbon filter and a fan to vent all this.
Mylar for reflection and small fan(s) is also a must to get some air curculation.

Now what im asking of you guys is to give me some input on this idea and help me find these things on the nett for the cheapest buck and best quality.
World wide shipping is a must!

should I grow it for you too?



If I was you, and maybe I am, I would put a plastic ebb flow table in there. I think a 4x4 table will fit the homebox XL perfectly. Those plastic tables are nice because you can use them for anything. Ebb and flow, drip system, hand watering..... But this is a larger item so shipping could be expensive depending on where you are at. Forget the mylar, the white walls of the homebox should be fine.

I am sure someone else will have some better advice for ya. But a search and some reading will do you a lot of good.

I was thinking of growing in soil, it might be old fashion but i like to get dirty and it just feels more natural that way. As far as money goes i got "some" restrictions but barriers are made to be broken. And to all you DIY guys and gals out there.. Yes it can be done for cheaper and possibly better. But im here to grow not build, no matter how good your building skills are it all comes down to the gardening.

I was looking at these http://www.head-nature.com/seite?wg=645&id=3Vjm68zx&mv_pc=242
Opinions people? Done business with them before? Is the equipment that follows the tent good?

What size fan will i need to vent my box? Remember it will be a digital ballast and there is no possibility for aircooling the hood.

I use those plastic tables for soil as well. Raises the pots off the ground a foot or two and makes it easy to catch runoff water. Not totally necissary, but that is the way I do it.

I don't know much about those homebox units on what size of intake/exaust they have. Do a search for the unit you are looking to get and read about other similar grows. I would guess that a 6" inline fane would work well, but do some reading for sure.

Okey okaaaaaaay! So i ran into a little problem the space i will putting the box is 119 but i heard some rumours that the homebox is a bit smaller than they list it? The sealing is about 202 and there is some pipes running over it wich might interfear with my ducting Will the box fit?

Edit: I did some more measuring and shit dont fit. So im downgrading my dreams to a Regular homebox and a 400 watt instead of the 600. But hey i will save money

Questions questions always more questions... Will a m3/h: 195 fan be able to blow true a 150 m3/h filter? Or would it have to work hard and be alot of wear and tear on the fan?
