New Grow Box - 400w HPS

[monkerz]

I am going to make a new Grow Box. I want to get as many plants to a 400w HPS light bulb as possible. What size should I make the box?

I will be planting White Widow and have no room restrictions.

My mom is a sick lady and needs allot of herbs to make her feel better

You could make it 3x3 and you might get 4-5 plants in there.

I would also go for a 3x3 box that's around 5 feet tall. You will need some good ventilation for this box as a 400 watt hps puts off a good bit of heat. Keep us posted on your progress. Take care and be safe.

Remeber to account for the height of your hydro unit too when figuring height.

I agree just maybe 3x4 box 6ft tall. you will need room up there to run exhaust and intake ducts. Take into account the heighth of the pot and the plant size.

I would just grow 1 plant at a time and just LST it and take up a 3 x 2 area.... Get that canopy going.
