Two thoughts...
1.) Heat probably won't be an issue with LEDs, but airflow for the plants will be so that's what you should focus on when it comes to airflow. However it could become an issue if you use enough Watts of CFLs in the cab so keep that in mind as well...
2.) You should check out the Vertical grow section to maximize your flowering space... seems to be catching on these days.

Good luck, bro, and you are def. taking the right approach and DOING the legwork and due diligence instead of throwing something together and just coming on the site with problem after problem with little time to have anyone help you out.

You're gonna do just fine. Will be watching, all subbed up.

Thanks dude! I won't have Leds on my first attempt, lack of money for now, still have so many things to buy.

I'll try a Hempy Bucket on coconut fibre lightning with CFL's 6500k for veg and 2700k for flowering.
I already bought six 30w 65000k 1800 lumens cfl bulbs, if by some miracle I manage to get some money till flowering I'll invest in some better lights instead of 2700k cfls.
(Hope my gramma miss the times she was used to gave me money on birthdays)

time for some pics.
I made a hanger (or a support idk) for 8 light bulbs, and if needed I can add some more bulbs and t5's into it.

The soil is from some garden, a friend gave me those seeds already in cups.

Tomorrow is my birthday and a holyday here in Brazil, probably all stores will be closed but I'll try to find some store opened to buy some stuffs, like vases and hidroponics, I only will get the coconut fibre on friday, so I have one day to learn about fertilizing a hempy culture.

Peace!

Cool, you seem pretty handy with the wiring there, looks great.

Almost forgot to mention, fabric and or air-pruning pots, like the ones shown in link seem to be what most are preferring for their grows nowadays, as well... it prevents the plant from becoming root-bound and instead of growing in circles around the container (root-bound), the air forces the root to form branchings, kind of back onto itself, and, so, enhancing the root mass instead of hurting it. Link to show the hard plastic kind of air-pruning planter pots... just scroll down on the first set of pictures at the top...https://www.rollitup.org/t/tangs-mephisto-room.908783/. Don't know about Brazil, but here in the states, Wal-Mart fabric shopping bags make a great inexpensive (CHEAP) alternative, but still quality enough for a one-time grow usage...

There you are and looking decent in the flower room for sure... No more stomped, diseased shwag bags for you... Gals are looking a bit spindley tho... May want that journal up soon so you can get good feedback advise on what I think may be your lights and/or spacing...
