Grow space requires professional opinion

Hello people, i have a few grows under my belt and looking to maximize my 2x1.2x2 tent. Looking at a possibility of doing a scrog in canna coco pro with a+b and pk 13/4. Not had a grow in a while and no clones available so would be buying a 10 pack of feminised and taking a clone of the best of the bunch and keep as a mother in a separate smaller grow space with sufficient lighting and ventilation. The strain yet to be decided.. I usually veg with a firstly a singlie 300w/ 2x300w CFL for a week or 2 then 400w mh then flower with 600w hps power plant but with this extra grow space I've no idea what would be over kill in that space for a scrog, filling the whole space.... 3 x 600w air hoods? Or 2 x 80cm vertical bulb parabolics with a fan on the canopy. I have 2x air cooled powerplants atm but I've read about how good parabolics are especially the vertical bulb version for dispersing heat sideways and upwards. I'd need to upgrade my fans as I've got a 4" and 5" rvk used for a much smaller grow. I have two variac speed controllers. For extraction I'm thinking a 12" rvk, box and insulate it of course and run it at maybe speed 1 or 2 (20/40%) anyone shed any light on running a 12" fan at a lower speed? Mainly for noise reduction. Intake I'm not sure 5" or 6" I've got a 5" already... Any thoughts on anything so far? My eyes are going together as I write this so will leave it at that for now... Any thoughts, suggestions or changes so far are most welcome as I only have experience with small grows . I'm open to all suggestions.... Want to start purchasing things asap :D

You must be using meters, and i was initially thinking feet. Lol. Unless you are talking feet?

Clarify i suppose ...
 
I'd say 4x4 at least. I think the 2x2 tents are just for cloning and keeping babies alive until they make it to your large tent. but that's just my opinion

Yeh sorry should have been more clear. 2.4m2 area. Thinking of a scrog but open to other opinions.. It's a big space to fill. It is for me anyway lol. The options huh...

Yet another thread of confusion.

Folks, if you want anybody to seriously post in your thread, BE SPECIFIC AND CLEAR. They make tents in both 2 foot x 2 foot and 2 meter by 2 meter. Don't assume everybody on earth knows you and what system you use.

I hate to burst your bubble, but Rollitup is a United States based site. Post accordingly.

Read the first sentence. That is where everybody immediately assumes you're in a 2 foot by 2 foot tent. There's no reason to read any further as everybody will say instantly, "get a bigger tent" which is exactly what happened.

Now you can either keep acting like an idiot, or you can simply edit your original post and put in the type measure you're working with and get some actual advice.

Your call.

whats the first sentence got to do with my whole post? how can someone give an opinion on something without reading all the information given.... only an idiot would do that. just block and delete me off this if this is the nice welcome new guests get to this site. thanks

so you basically have a 6 by 8 foot tent. i'd say 2 600s ought to be plenty for that area, whether you do a scrog or not. i'm using one 600 in a 4x4 and getting pretty good coverage, the edges fall off a little, but i rotate the plants so they all get even coverage

Yep. Typical. And fully what I expected.
nothing i said beforehand prompted the remark "stop being an idiot".... have you actually read anything except the first sentence. it was clearly stated a couple posts later that i was referring to 2.4m2 yet even after this was confirmed and all assumptions for the someone that didnt read the full post you still thought you would get your beak in about it being a thread of confusion. if you are still confused about what i have posted then im the idiot.....? you sure all you read was the 1st sentence aye lol. i'd be more than happy for someone to arrange to have me removed from this site.... anyone
