I'm about to start my first grow, still waiting on the main lights to arrive but the aero gardens lights should provide enough for germination and the first few days until I can hang the big boys) but in the mean time I have a few questions.
1. Smell - I know this starts at flower but id like to know if it will be an issue for me with the following info. 1 auto flowering white widow growing in an aero garden contained in a chloroplast cabinet" inside of a closet in a currently unoccupied room. Considering the plant itself effectively has 3 "rooms" containing it will smell control be much of an issue outside of an Oder eater in the unoccupied room?
2. Ventilation- the chloroplast cabinets dimensions are sox 24x36x36 (note it has been built to be modular and can expand upwards if needed and is NOT sealed, the interior is lined with mylar. HOWEVER as already stated, the grow Cabinate itself is in a closet and oil linearly tests showed that the Aero Gardend grow light at full extension was able to increase the temperature in the box from 68 degrees Fahrenheit to 72 degrees within an hour with a fan going (and remained at this temp). The two big boys I'm getting have the following info:
LEDs: 100PCS 3W grow LEDs
Dimension: 310*210*60mm
Coverage Area: about 2.6 x 3.2 Square Feet
LED Power: 300W
Actual Power consumption: energy saving， just consumes about 100W-150W power, much better than the same product in the marketplace
Worldwide Voltage: 85v-265v
Working environment: -20~40℃,45%~95%RH
Working Frequency: 50~60Hz
I plan on testing this of course but with these three light sources my hope is to have the temp nearing 80 in the Cabinate with a fan on.
3. CO2 - I am considering adding Co2 via a simple sugar water + yeast concoction with an air hose taped just behind the fan (so it shots Co2 around the cabinet. I have read however that Co2 I'd generally a waste unless in a sealed system with high light intensity, is this true or would a simple sugar water yeast route help given all the above info?
4. Night time temp- This is the part that concerns me, the dry test showed that with the Aerogarden light and a heating pad, the temp raised to 77 in an hour. Mimicing night time temps for the house, once I turned the light off there was a 2 degree drop every hour. Now I can adjust the vent in the room to assure it doesn't get below 65 degrees at night but will a potential 15 degree swing on a daily basis hurt the plant?
I plan on starting this Sunday and will be starting the journal that day or the next so any info it would be great, thanks!
