It depends on the size pot. You can get 6-1 gallon pots in their easy. 6 -5 gallon pots is pushing it.

Quantum boards are the in thing right now. But there several other excellent LED companies.

Depending on your budget.

since the shelves are adjustable (although it is kinda annoying so not something you do all the time) you could leave like 3ft on the bottom and grow like 2 plants there full time if you want. But you will want a different / stronger light for flowering. or you can just move them outside when they are big, sun is free.

The led shoplights are mostly just for starting, that would be your middle shelves. usually like a month or so for seed to sprouts or rooting clones.

but there is no point growing tons of starter plants if you don't have room for them when they are bigger =]

mature plants can get large 3ft x 5ft easy. but you can trim them to fit whatever space you want. (see small /r/spacebuckets setups, to huge /r/outdoorgrowing plants)

an inline fan with flexible tubing and air filter (if you are flowering and dont want it to smell outside your shed much) is easy to place if you have some vent or opening somewhere in the shed.

Seeing various different plants in this photo, everything in Foxfarm Ocean Forest, no nutes. 2400 Total Watts ( LED "Watts.. so whatever that means to this manufacturer" )

• ones on the left started in window, auto pineapples 5gallon pots, been growing for 53 days, buds appeared Aug 26th
  
• the next ones over got moved from the 2x4 tent, auto girl scout cookies and auto pineapple, 3 gallon pots, a few weeks away from harvest. 59 and 54 days growing
  
• the next two were started after I got a grow light and added it to the window, auto gorilla glue #4, 5 gallon pots, 17 days growing
  
• the other plants are A Fig Tree, some peppers, chives and lettuce and catnip. various pots.
  
  Moved everything into the tent over the last weekend.
  
  Pretty happy with this tent!
  
  Big question on mind is the best way to utilize? I am thinking of using my 2x4 for "vegging" and this 5x5 for flowering? Not sure about moving plants around though. Could also just keep two separate staggered grows going. I thought I could just do all stages in one tent but the different humidity and temperature requirements would mean compromising on the best environment for each stage. Another option is to try a scrog in the 2x4 and a 'regular' grow in the 5x5.

Yes. I have two 4" Active Air blowers- One in my veg space, the other in my dry tent. I have a controller on each blower. They work as they are supposed to. A good friend has the 6" Active Air blower with that controller in his 4x4. Works very nice.

I also have this 6" Vivosun blower/controller that I bought before I learned about the Active Air blowers. The Active Air blower is well built like a commercial product. The Vivosun blower is cheap and flimsy like a consumer product.

You'd need multiple lights to use a 4x8 effectively.

There's vivosun's fan and filter combo, you'd need something like those to keep smell down and get the heat out.

50w+ per square foot of whatever tent you choose will be fine.

this is what I've come up with for my second iteration of the parts list.

I do have an exhaust fan, that's the one I described above with the carbon filter. Here's what I'm using.
