Hi my question is what is the optimum lighting for the three plants if the room is 50x60x140.

I mean here is also that I can not too much electrical charge looking for the optimal solution.

ps. sorry for my english

[Klepa]

Thanks for your reply .See how it looks on the network cost when it comes to led lighting

Hi mate,

The answer is as much light as possible without having heat problems. Tokage has summed it up nicely. I would use a 400 watt HID, as long as you have no problems with heat which means you will need excellent ventilation.

all the best,

Hi

What is the difference between, a reflector made of perforated aluminum and cool tube reflector.

I mean which will be better to match ventilation ? ,whereas a small space and it will not be assembled air filter

[Elektroski Justovski]

Tube but u dont need it to 250w in that area.

Thanks

Mr negative is right, you will not need it if you use a 250 watt. But what a cool tube does is pass cool air over the hot bulb, and then this air is exhausted outside.

A cool tube used with a good exhaust fan can reduce the heat in a small space by around 70 %.

If you have just started growing, then maybe you should start with a 250 watt H.I.D., and grow a few plants and then see if you want to upgrade to a cool tube and a 400 watt light.

if you have anymore questions just ask us;

take care,

Thanks for the advice probably will use 250 watts H.I.D., I know that the better the light the more efficient cultivation and as I was to the end with this light .I lost the weight / power ?

hi mate,

It is true, the more light(up to 1000 watts per square meter), the higher will be your yield, and the plants grow faster.

all the best

Hi

So I'll stay to the end of the cultivation of 250 watts. Do not lose the quality, but more will it take to harvest.

What I mean is that I will be practiced for the first time records with artificial lighting.

Way I previously used a fluorescent lamp for the first two weeks as the little plant,was growing strong enough to survive in nature,

exaggerate it in a safe place. Such a process could not yield a fully enjoy . At night ,the temperature drops dramatically and J dreading it to freeze.

J can not say as exited as a small child witch a lollipop because the taste and the power was marvelous,but seeing the pictures on the forum and I am

impressed. J also wanted to gather such a beautiful harvest

The rule of thumb is 40watts per square foot of space is the minimum amount of light needed to grow pot. So if you have a 2 foot by 2 foot room you have 4 square feet which means you need 160watts at least for that space for a plant to survive. If you want good pot double that.

3 plants will probably be a little tight, but i agree with the guys above Next time maybe go for 2 and make them a little bigger

good luck man hope we'll see that online
