Bump? No one has any inputs?

My last grow, also my first, was in 20 5 gallon buckets with hydroton rocks as the growing medium. I yielded ~5lbs with that grow. Not sure if this amount of yield is good or bad (10x600w air cooled w/ top feed drip in a 12'x24'x7' room) I'm looking to improve and am thinking of using 4, 4'x8'...

Ok, i've narrowed it down the problems, and fixed one problem. i checked the receptacles and realized there wasn't a ground. so i went back and realized for w/e reason the ground wire nut decided to come loose. i've created a tight connection and now the 120v of the powerbox ignites the lamps...

ALL TEN of my lights went out. I checked to see them off, flickering every now and then. I doubt it's the bulb since they seem to have all gone off at once. I tried to reset and no luck. My power box is supplying the 240 volts. The breaker on my main and powerbox hasn't tripped. I am running...

240v hid lighting uses the NEMA 6-15 plugs? I'm thinking it might be cheaper for me to install multiple NEMA 6-15 receptacles around the room rather purchases the power box.

Just ran into a small speed bump. I just realized that running that many lamps will definitely trip my fuse box. I'm looking into getting an electrician install a 240v outlet into my room. I would like multiple 240v outlets, but that seems a bit suspicious. Don't have a clue about electricity...

I'm too new to be able to send Pms. I was planning on purchasing everything through bghydro, their prices on their lights seem cheapest around right now.

Damn, i'm disappointed to hear that my lighting is inadequate. I was following the guideline how 600watts would cover about 6 feet, hence the spacing. Thanks for the advice on the avoiding bends on my cooling my lights, I adjusted my shopping cart to include and extra inline fan. I will be...

Also, i'm not sure how many GPH do i need my pump to achieve for this system.. bump?

Note, each square is half a foot. so the pots are spaced 2 feet from each other from the center of the buckets. My secondary plan of 35 pots would be spaced 3 feet from the center of each bucket, which i've only roughly sketched up the plan. the lights will be vented as well, how adequate should...

First time poster, first off, a little intro: I've been growing outdoors for a while, this season is nothing but bad luck. First location, my 50 clones were stolen by someone probably within the community, the second location the sheriff made quick work of. So now i'm looking towards indoor...
