Hi Riu i planning on getting a 47x47x76 tent i wanted something smaller but did some shooping on ebay and cant beat tht price, i just hope its up to par and not a cheap one. What do you think http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=300702237663,,, but i want to put as many autos in that i can fit w/o over crowding so question 1 how many auto should i b able to fit in there and like wise if i wanted no autos jus reg photo period ones. question 2 what lighting should i be useing obvisouly 600w or 1000w i quess i should say will a 600w b enough i rather stay away from 1000w cuz of extra heat and power consumtion but if 1000w is nessicery i will suck it up and make it work but again i really rather stay around a 600w please advice Riu

600 watt HPS will be fine. First you need to decide on what gallon containder you will be using, next measure out 4ftX4ft in your house, and use tape or a couple things ti mark off the size of your area. Then place one of your containers on the 4X4 area and see about how many you can fit in it. Remember plants need room you cant put the containers right next to each other. If your growing in 3 gallon containers you could fit 8-10 PLANTS or 20 3 gal containers, so remember plants need space. Its also going to depend on how big your autos get, find out about your plants and it will help you figure out how many you can fit...whyautos bro? better off gettin a ten pack of seeds from the depot, germinating them all, take a bazillion clones, kill of the males and their clones after you sex? That way you can take the strongest girl of the pack, and her clones that you took earlier, and fill the chamber again. not to mention you have a keeper mom in the process which is an endless supply of clones of the exzact same plant!!! Always female, grows the same, smokes the same, same damn plant.
 
thanks buddy I need all the insight as for autos I am a beginner so I will be using them as a learning curve and the quicker harvest of course. I will be trying reg size ladies eventually but I feel you cant go wrong with autos. however I would like to do autos in the front and possibly regular size in the back and when the autos are done I can switch the regulars to flowering this was my initial plan but it's just that I would like a quick harvest to make my money back and make sure everything goes as smoothly as possible and I can learn from my mistakes, I'm afraid if I start regular size and I get some type of deficiency or issue that will result in low yield or trash because I didn't have that extra care, so I would like to get a feel for her through autos and yes I know each strain is different which brings me to my next issuse forr autos I've chosen afgan kush ryder, think different, big devil il
 
sorry disregard typos I am using my phone any whooo so those r the autos I have selected. il more then likely do a majority of 1 and throw 1 or 2 of another auto to switch it up so i pretty much got tht down i think (im OPEN TO SUGGESTION & GESTURE BTW) as for regular size im stuck see I'm pretty picky when it comes to my smoke so I would like some top shelf sativa and indica so I can have the best of both worlds and the better strains need more attention and love, so I can getit to my likeyOf quality so I don't want to many mistakes or mayb I need a 5 star noob resilient strain i guess you can say I wanna walk before I can crawl so thats where im stuck for regular strain,as for clones I need at least a harvest or two 1st so I can invest in a mother champer etc n everything else I dont hav yet
 
If il be using a 600w is exausting in my bedroom gona b a problem don't think I can exhaust out my window and I definitely can't put holes in the wall I can get sum what fresh air in but out is another road block for me please advice
