    *Vertical* 2,000watts = 6lbs!!

    my buddie went to this system on vancover island and trippled his output. it works and its also alot more work and time....you are doing good. try a complete round room not square, and the plants up high dry out faster that the ones down low. so use lots of air movement.

    light timer malfunctioned, do i need to worry???

    umm, if they lose 3.5 hours its ok, but dont change there schedule. just let them lose the 3.5 that day and dont try to make up for it. what kind of timer? some are only rated for 600w, buy one for outside as they are more rugged and tend to last longer do to the heat.

    Help Cooling A Closet

    suck cool air in from down low. and suck the hot air in from the ceiling opposite the corner you are bring the air in. min a 100cfm fan in and min 400cfm for out , considering your size of room more is better. An oscillating fan in the room to move the air around helps too.
