As long as you can make that second floor steady, and it can carry the weight of your pots... Thats avg 10kg per wet pot? Never weighed only my hands can estimate.. well as long as it can carry the weight i would just bother on proper ventilation... 600w cooltubed in a 1.2m sqm no worries about heat if outside is lower than 20c.. i run 1000w now in a smiliar space.. its hard af to go over 25 lol...

    Yeah should be pretty easy to build will defo have a solid frame and just cut a mesh to put over the top for airflow. Just not sure what fans to buy? I have a few spare hps if I were to put one on each floor at say 250w do you think I will sruggle to keep temps down. Also if I veg in t5 flouresent should I leave it on 24hours a day? Oh yeah I have to be super quiet on this one which is also why I was thinking t5 using the theory less heat = less powerful fans = less noise? Thanks for your reply’s bro

    Actually scrap the hps idea because surely the plants will have no space to grow as I would have to leave the light 40cm away plus hanging space that would only leave me around 40cm growth space

    Well still didnt get how u be placin the pots on a mesh screen? It needs to sit on wooden floor or somethin..

    If u looking for stealth im not your guy but:

    Minimum noise Per 1.2 sqm space from my knowledge
    2x small fans for circulation
    ~400cfm exhaust and filter (slightly bigger filter)
    And a led... QBs are best.. 480w per 1.2sqm i guess is right..

    Hope this helps

    Veging under t5 is a great way to go ,but in my opinion not If you only have the single space to veg and flower ,as t5 is slow in comparison to hps or mH ,I use t5 for most of my veg work but I have a separate veg space to flower

    You can keep a plant indefinitely under them ,as for temps ect I find a space with t5 running 24/7 lights on keeps temps in check ,my veg room runs a pair of 4x24w tube units with no intake and no extraction and temps humidity ect are cock on

    Thanks for the message bro. Looking good. How old are they? So you think I should run 24/7? Do you not get a smell without extraction?

    Thanks for the info bro soz for late reply. Much appreciated gna go with my plan I think appreciate your help gna do a diary aswell so I let you know and you can see how I get on. Only my third grow my first was real good quality but small yield this one looks good but on the new one I’m gna try topping and training I’ve literally been just letting grow naturally then cutting away all the weaker branches/stems before flower. Any good diary’s or vids you know of that I can check out for guidance? Soz for essay lol
