At first, my room was 8 X 10. I had to put a Mylar curtain up to shrink it down to 8 X 5. I used a 1000 watt MH which worked great. I had the other half for cuttings, seedlings and supplies. I built a new room that is 6 X 8. I also have a curtain for two 6 X 4 spaces. Now I can do one 6 X 4 for a 600 watt HPS or the whole area for two 600 watt HPS’s. It’s in the basement where it’s cool and dry (except in summer, when I move out). I have a big fan and carbon filter which blows out the roof, and a decent oscillating fan, I also have an electric wall heater for cold spells and a dehumidifier if need be. I have an intake fan but I often just leave the door open. The basement is large and the room door isn’t visible from the 4 basement windows. This system works very well but is power greedy. I don’t sell anything so replacing with a tent and smaller lighting isn’t in my budget. This set up was bought during my working life when I was still making money.
