Just bought a DR150 for my first grow indoors. I am using soil currently and am curious as to if you guys have any suggestions in how I should run my ducting and keep the tent cool. Ambient room temperature is usually around 74 degrees. Here's the setup:
-1000w HPS w/ an adjustable ballast.
-Lumii 6 inch hood
-Can style carbon filter (hung)
-Stealth In-Line Fan
- 4x4 flood table on the floor
-Small oscillating fan on floor as well.

Here's how I am ducting it currently. Feel free to chime in and let me know of I'm doing it wrong.

Carbon Filter> Inline Fan> Hood> exhaust.

Any help is appreciated! Thanks in advance. I'm out of town until Monday, so I will have pictures on Monday evening.

I prefer filter-hood-fan....that way you are pulling through the hood....it's how I always ran my duct for air cooled lights.

That's how I have mine running. Filter, light, fan, and then it goes out of my tent

Definitely will change it. Anyone know if I can run a 1000W MH bulb in my digital ballast? I've seen way too many threads to get a straight answer.

It should be fine. Your ballast has a label on it, near the power cord, see what it says.

Will the exhaust from your lights be vented outside?

Hey All,
Here are some pictures of what I've got going on now. I was given a few clones that were rooted by a friend (put them in 6" pots) and a teen which I threw into an Airpot. Let me know what you guys think about the way I have my tent setup and if there's anything I should/ need to do! Thanks in advance! The strains in order from back row to front: SFV OG, Sour Diesel(Teen), SFV OG, Tahoe OG, 2 Jack Herer. *I don't know how to flip my pictures so upload upright :/ Sorry!*

I know I will have to start training that teen VERY soon as she's a sativa. Could I just bend her and tie her to the pot?

Looking good.

Yea you can bend her, tie down, top her, pinch her anything to keep her height manageable.

Awesome, thanks! When should I begin to train the clones? Also, where exactly can I pinch her? Right at the base of new growth?

Personally since you have such a height difference, I'd transplant the clones into their final container soon, then elevate those clones to the same height as the big one, and toss a screen on them and weave and train em to get uniform height.

Wouldn't a big pot be bad for the small plants?

To a degree yes, but I imagine your gonna veg for a few weeks and then flip, by then it won't be a small plant.
