VENTILATION QUESTIONS
What fan size and how many fans do I need for my grow area? There are some simple formulas to find out your grow areas requirements for proper ventilation. A typical rule for ventilation is the exchange of your grow areas fresh air every minute. CALCULATING the active grow area is multiplying the LENGTH X WIDTH X HEIGHT. After finding this volume number multiply by 1.25 (this calculates in for any inefficiency from carbon filters), this number is the minimum requirement for cubic feet per minute (CFM) that you will need for your growing area. If you are calculating for a non filter intake fan just use this formula L X W X H = CFM.
HYDROPONICS
The idea of hydroponic cultivation is the soiless growth of a plants roots in a nutrient rich solution of water and oxygen. Various mediums used to hold the plants and its roots in place are rock wool cubes, rock wool slabs or rock wool granular chunks used to fill mesh pots.
