Thanks to you all for the help... I seem to learn something every day....

Dragon'sHoardSeeds · May 28, 2012

No prob. There's no point in having this knowledge if I don't share it with people.
I just wish I had the funds to start my seed and breed company in Amsterdam. Peace everyone

Just a good 'ol country boy having a good time drinking some brewskies and smoking some good kind bud that
finally came around here because of the surplus in the medical states. I heard the prices were going down
too a about a hundred and fifty per ounce because of all the surplus. Take it from me and the all original smokers
like Cheech and Chong. The government will finally get over them selves and make it legal. 12/21/12 is the time
of the awakening not the time of destruction. Prohibition was never the answer. Vote for Ron Paul this coming election.
(why does google chrome always suggest the wrong words). He Is the one with common sense.

Since 1976, P.L. Light Systems have shined in greenhouses around the world. Now, they've taken all that know-how and put it into their new hobby light remote fixture systems. And we're very, very impressed with the results.
P.L. Light Systems grow light reflectors are manufactured using high quality aluminum (99. 8% pure), then polished and anodized, resulting in a microscopically facetted surface. This creates a highly efficient, uniformly diffused light pattern. Light intensity will decrease with an increase in distance from the light source. It is because of this law of nature that a smaller grow light reflector will reflect more light than a larger one, due to less distance between the light source and the reflective surface. P.L. Reflector Systems are the most efficient grow light reflectors available to the hobby, as well as the commercial grower. These indoor grow light reflectors will reflect more light with an even distribution to your plants when compared to other reflectors. All of these hydroponic lighting systems come with a 5-year warranty on the ballast and a 1-year warranty on the bulb.

Of all the P.L. grow light reflectors, the Deep model is our best-seller. For years the P.L. medium grow light reflector was the best on the market. Its performance was outstanding when compared to any other grow light reflector, and continues to receive rave reviews by the leading publications and authors. With the introduction of the Deep reflector, the Medium has been surpassed when used in square growing areas. Our Deep Reflector recommendations to achieve excellent results with plants that have high light requirements are as follows:

Wattage
Mounting Height
Coverage

HPS 400/430
2 feet
3 x 3 feet

I run 2 Deeps on movers...they perform awesomely

never mind the attached thumbnail*

Well if you read the post right above yours', you'll see that bigger isn't always better when it comes to reflectors. And they don't even tell you what light pattern they put out (whether it's rectangular or square.) But if that's is what you have then that is what I will model it after. I just wish I knew what coverage they have at 2.5'.

Kite High · May 31, 2012

i tell you the PL DEEP with a 400 watt cmh puts out 5000 ftc uniformly over 3x3 at 18 inches per my nist cert light meter...I have 2 on intellidrives in a 5x5....love 'em

Dragon'sHoardSeeds · May 31, 2012

I really wish people would wait to buy there stuff until after I've designed their room.

that's just too funny

Leroy Jenkins · Jun 1, 2012

Dragon'sHoardSeeds, I sent my info, but DID want to let you know that for me, the room itself is what I need help with. I have 90% of my equipment, well... 50% if you include dreams... I can send a list if you would like to integrate what I have already... I would have waited... but this is a collection of 10+ years... and who can afford all that at once?....

Kite High · Jun 1, 2012

i just plunked down $10000 for my growroom...and that is building it myself!!

Dragon'sHoardSeeds · Jun 1, 2012

Yes it gets really expensive

Okay first of all you are going to need way more cfm than what you chose. I suggest you return or sell your ridiculously over sized
reflectors and and get P.l. Deep reflectors. Your 425 cfm fan may work for your veg room but I'm still calculating everything and will
let you know shortly.

Dragon'sHoardSeeds · Jun 1, 2012

They used to sell air cooled hoods for the P.L. reflectors. You may be able to find them somewhere.

there is an option for the air cooled hood for $65....this is where I obtained my 2 pl setups...thought not air cooled...I have 1 ton frostbox mini split for the growroom

Dragon'sHoardSeeds · Jun 1, 2012

Thanks kite

Dragon'sHoardSeeds · Jun 1, 2012

Okay, here it is my most complex design to date. The FFH Room.

you'll need 54 of these:
http://www.bghydro.com/BGH/itemdesc.asp?ic=COGCRBII03&eq=&Tp=

This are the products I would use and this is the way I would design it.

I'll let you decide where to put your Co2 generator. You should vent it
next to your fan exhaust using one of these:
http://www.bghydro.com/BGH/itemdesc.asp?ic=AEFSC062&eq=&Tp=

Put one of these fans in front of your A/C to keep the cool air from going
strait into your exhaust:

Okay, here's Leroy's awesome (and rather expensive) shipping container grow show.
This shows what it should look like when growing from seed to pick a mother plant.

You'll need 32 of these:
http://www.bghydro.com/BGH/itemdesc.asp?ic=COGCRBII03&eq=&Tp=

If anyone knows a cheaper way to cool these rooms via central air. Then please speak up.

Wattage	Mounting Height	Coverage	Calculation Grid (PDF)*
HPS 400/430	2 feet	3 x 3 feet	400 DEEP (62K)
HPS 600	2.5 feet	4 x 4 feet	600 DEEP (63K)
