Also seeing the Series 3 at Budget LED! I'm seeing that maybe I don't need to go up t0 hundreds of watts and maybe I'll get away with not breaking the bank on lights!

I don't know about led oanels, but for fans filters ect you want to be buying decent stuff. Ruck or RVK fans rhino pro filter ect you can get these items for half the price but i can guarantee they wont last as long. My rvk fan was on 24/7 for well over 2 years and it still works fine now!!

Thanks for that SyRaX... couple of questions for you below!

I've made some decisions...

- BudBox Lite - 0.6m x 0.6m x 1.4m - Grow Tent - from onestopgrowshow
- 150w Hlg Quantum board qb288 v2 led kit 4000k, R spec, B Spec and now 648 Diablo Horticulture lighting group - from VividLED
- Systemair RVK 4 inch
- Rhino Hobby Carbon Filter

I'm wondering... will I need any ducting or for a tent like that will I be alright to essentially attach the fan to the vent out? Also - I'll be ok to vent into the loft and won't need ducting to throw the air outside right?

Lastly... do you specifically reccomend the pro filter over the Hobby?

Have you got any height issues, cause that's not high, I've got similar tents but 1.6 and 1.7 high once stretch kicks in, light height and filter in, it's gonna get tight

Hi bud just on the subject of medium for me I'd choose some perlite instead of coco. Perlite will do the same job as the coco mixed with soil imho. Good luck with the grow and may your room be plentiful

I could go higher - Thought I'd be able to cram if in if I go SCROG? Was thinking Pot - 30cm... another 30cm or so before screen.... lights 15cm above that at start.... 10cm for fan at top

Leaves me 55cm to play with?

What do you reckon?

Don't know budder, I've had plants that have been touching the roof of the tent, me personally I'd go higher if height ain't an issue,your lights I think it's quite powerful don't know about 15cm from the start, I'm hps so not sure on that 1
