4x4 Sunhut

Just wondering what you guys are pulling with the 4x4 dark rooms .What kind of dark room and what kinda of light 1000 or 600 aircooled ect....I could really use some input here I am trying to get my set up going and was wondering if It would be worth it for me to get a 600hps air cooled hood I will be growing in canna coco hempy style I have two cuts that finish up at the same time 51-52 days shroomys green crack and brothers grim original c99 cut. How many plants should I do In my 4x4x78'' grow tent.I plan to veg for 3 4 weeks.Then if all goes well I will have a fresh harvest every 52 days.while my others veg while these flower of coerce.If you guys have pics that would cool I would love to pull 1 pound a run but I don't know if it's gonna happen with a 600hps and it would be my 1st time working a bigger space like that.I was also thinking about getting on of these dark rooms from ebay and mylar one so much cheaper but the back door don't roll up like the sunhuts and I don't like it.I would love one to open up from the back so I can blast the ac in that bitch.

The Sun Hut is my friend.

I have a 2 x 4, a 4 x 4 , and a 4 x 8.

If you are only rocking a 4 x 4 this time I would suggest you hang a 1000W over a 4 x 4 E&F tray.

Growing Sativa? Pack that bitch full of 5.25 squares filled with hydroton and a rooted clone. Veg no more than 3 days and flip. Expect close to 2#. Don't forget the trellis!

Scared of numbers? Drop you 9, 2 gallon smart posts filled with coco in there and SCROG to glory.

I can't help with indica.


I'll leave you with something to grow into.....

Holy shit. Roll up the back and blast AC in there.
You got me thinking bigtime now.
I got the 2x4 which is really 3x4.5 with a 600
Love it.

im with cutty up there i run a 600 watt magnum hood with ebb n flow. only i have 4 2x2 tables that i harvest every 2 weeks instead of one big 4x4 table. although if you have no where to get that many cuttings your gonna need a seperate momma area.

I ran a 600 in a 4x4 sunhut with no air cooling, just used an adjust-a-wing with diffuser, no problems maintaining a stable temperature, but I had relatively low ambient temperatures as I live in a northerly climate and it was the dead of winter.

I would not get one off of ebay. I had one and it was a piece of crap. Light leaks and it ripped in a few places. I would go with Secert Jardin they are much cheaper than Sunhut.
Here is one i just picked up.

Damn It's been a while since I have been on here thank u everyone for the insight.What I went ahead and did was bought a 4x4 sunhut and a 6bulb 4' t5 for the veg for 5 plants I am running in there all chem d's the t5 is on 24 hours and they are in 2 and half gallon hempy buckets..They have been veging now for about two weeks and plant to go another 2 weeks before flip I am having a hell of a time trying to find a good veg formula for them.I will flip and will be using an air cooled 600 hps these grow some fat ass colas I hope for 15 zips at least.

Hey Rushoe good to see you got the ball rolling. Do you have a grow thread in the works? I wouldn't mind following along on this grow. Take care and grow safe.

Thank u I am glad as well I was just busy with my other small tent I have going and I have never worked with the chem d's before man these are some tough feeders I haven't started a grow thread yet cuz it's not much to look at just the chem d's in the buckets about foot tall with some training I guess I could slap up a pic if u would like. It will be a side by side real chem d vs chem d (Og Organics) I think is the name of the cut they look very alike but I know for a fact they are two different cuts gonna see witch one I like better and it would be koo to see them side by side.
