Hi there I a first time grower and tried a few times but never got to end of any of them and now done my studying abt all this but still need help. Lol. It's not as easy as people say it is ha. Lol. But right let me tell us plz.

For starters I live with my mum and it's in a new build bungalow house. Not old build.??? So if u no wot they do with beams in new build roof. Then there bastards. But managed to restructure it so I can get a thermal 5x5 box space in there as I only got a 4x4 loft tent at moment. But tore it down because I wanna do it all year round so that y I'm doing thermal box. And proper box aswell. But now people I got alot of help off a friend on 420Magazine for my 4x4.

And now I'm going upto a 5x5 space and was wondering wot is the best marshydro led light to use 4 veg and the whole thing In my 5x5 space
And I have a 6inch fan and carbon filter 4 my outlet
and a 4inch fan and carbon filter coming In.
So I was just wondering do I have to get bigger fans and stuff now I'm going up to a 5x5 space.

I doubt you'll need bigger fans. A 6-inch fan can move about 400 cubic feet per minute. A 5x5 tent has 150 cubic feet of volume. So, a 6-inch fan can replace the air in a 5x5 tent more than 2 1/2 per minute.

Can't help you with Mars Hydro lights. I don't use them.

2 pots in a 5x5 I’d recommend max 4 if hydro
Nd to your mars hydro light question id recommend I high end led if u have the funds
A good quality light could break or make your harvest
I use the lumiteck 600w 2.9
A led of this size would be perfect for your space
I’m recently trying the omega black 720w slightly smaller not as efficient as the 600w per $per Watt but more than enough for your space for $200 compared to the $850 the 600w would set you back

FC 3000 and FC- E covers 2.5 x 2.5 area so you would 2 to cover a 5 x 5 area
Which of the two are better I can't say.

You say you’ve tried a couple times before nd failed did you figure out why you failed??
Getting more equipment nd more complex systems will only further increase stress nd make you fall out of love with the hobby

Do a simple coco run dile in the basics nd just focus on your environment optimal temps of around 74f
Humidity around 60%
Good airflow nd a good exchange of air can all be achieved with berry minimum cost and equipment once your more confident a couple crops in then invest in the equipment tht will provide results

No point in jumping in the deep end if you don’t know how to swim if you get me
Take small steps learn as you go it takes time nd the best way to get experience is to just grow kill a few plants fk up a few drying cycles then you eventually figure it out
I’m sure people on this page will keep you right nd have more than enough help for you
Happy growing pal

I don't have that big of a mess when I am transplanting, consider investing time into cleaning up
