600w Hps To Much?

i am useing a 3ft w 2ft d 4ft h in closed(stealth) cabinet with a 265cfm squirrel cage blower exhaust fan with a carbon scrubber for oder an a inline fan.it has a 600w hps mounted at the top of the cabinet.will this be to hot for my plant? if so what can i do about it.this is how the company made it and ship to me(lamp has its own fan and ballast

That doesn't sound like much room for a 600w bulb. Got any pics of the setup? That would really help

you don't have enough height in the room.

no cant take pics. also it is a dwc grow

use 2 fans for blowing between the lights and top of plants, what strain u goin to grow with it?

height for what?

Because of height you might be better off using 2x 150w cfl .

blue berry right now.how do i do the two fan thing

Click to expand...

hood thickness about 10" you need atleast 16" from tops to hood. thats over 2 foot. dwc setup about foot tall. now you have maybe 12 inch of room for plant. unless thats what your shooting for.

cant change set up i was all pre built it does how ever have to flors mounted one on each side vertically in the cabinet but the dont seem to be doing to good(plant seems to be growing slow

What kinda setup are we talking about here? Who made it? Sold it to you? Somethings not adding up here.

there is 2ft 7ins from res to the 600w hps that has glass covering it plant is 2ins

u can LST the plant to fit under that light, i was wondering what strain cause i thought u would never b able to grow sativa in there.. u could train it (Low stress training) and put into flower early ,, i have 600hps and i acn put my light as close as 8 inches with 2 osciliating fans osciliating between tops of plants and lights..

company is called home grown hydroponics (homegrown hydroponics .com)

whats your temp in the room? even with the glass you need to have atleast a foot or more between tops and hood. veg to 12" and hope it doesn't get more than another 6" during flower and your good.

right now i am useing the flors and not the hps. befor i use the hps i just wanted to know if it burn my plant thanks for all the replys

When your plants next dark cycle comes around take the plants out and put them somewhere else thats suitable while you install the HPS to test the temps out. Then you'll know exactly where you stand and how many degrees cooler you need to get it which will help when buying ventillation.
