Club Vert(600)

An EYE Hortilux 600w puts out 88,000 initial lumens. The same in a 1000w puts out 145,000. That makes the 600 put out ~147 lumens/ watt. The 1000 would be 145 lum/ w. Pretty much the same ratio. 600's are the most efficient overall, but a 1000w isn't that much more inefficient. Bringing the heat both can produce is a different matter.

Put half my plants into 12/12 yesterday. I'm expecting big things around these parts in 7-8 weeks!!!

Hey guys, gotta a new thread starting up. Day 22 into flower already Same vertical flooded tube system as before, but with selected genetics and a better clue of what the hell im doing here check it out!

Vertical Flooded Tube Dual 600w - Purple Kush and Golden Goat

hey jig very cool, would i be able to run two 600's instead of 2 1000's and get the same results?

In a word... No. 2000 is greater than 1200.

You've got lots of reading to do my friend. I read for 3 months before I bought a single thing. Hit the boards, read some peeps' journals. Find something that similar to what you are planning and see what they did. I learned a lot from Heath Robinson. You could learn alot checking out snowgrow's grow. Or even one of my grows. Lot's and lots of info tucked into grow journals.

thanks man will do

hey jig, read heath robinsons thread wow! snowgrows and some others. also read up on PAR color spectroms and light formulas. do you know of any other sites that are worth looking up?
i think i am getting a better idea of what direction i am going to go.

thanks

hey evryone! been doing allot of reading and i am working on ventalation. from what i have read some say you should circulate the air once every five minutes and some 3,2,1, and heath robinson says twice every minute. i am not planning on using co2. my room is 540 cubic feet and i have a 980 cfm blower. if that blower is too big for my application does it hurt anything to circulate the air too much?

no such thing as too much air circulation unless its a jet engine and snapping branches when it comes on lol.

hi tae, thanks for the info

And one of my recent harvest

V.Nice Dezracer +Rep

Thanks bru.

Looks like that harvest in the above pic is an oz shy of the 1lb mark. I'm really happy with that considering it was only four plants and they didn't get to veg as long as I wanted.
BBK, Sour Alien and Platinum Bubba

Well done Dez.

The next harvest will hopefully be better but we'll see for sure in 4-6 weeks. Three of them are bigger than what I just harvested but one is smaller but as long as they fill in, they might yield more than the previous four.

If I can pull these numbers with four plants I'll stick with what I've got and not make the grow bigger. I try not to be greedy, you know?

I do know.

wow, this thread is amazing. Im ready to harvest and am moving so I'm building a new grow room. Thinking of a 600watt in a 4x4x7 room with 4 or 5 plants. Would I need another 600watt for the room. Or maybe a 600 veg and 1000 flowering in the room.

A 600 is great for a 4x4 space when doing vertical grows. The only reason you might consider a second light is if you run multiple levels and need concentrated light from floor to ceiling. A 1K will get you closer to that but still be as effecive as a pair of 600s for covering the 7' ceiling height. I have run a single 600 on a vertical light mover and lit up a tent from floor to ceiling with good results.

Ill probably have 4 plants in each room, 2 rooms(flowering and vegging) so every 2 months I can harvest. Not sure yet how much bud I want to produce but a 2 month vegg is long enough to create some pretty nice bushes.
