Hi there

I have been growing for a few years using a 600watts HPS for my own consumption. My yield was ok for me as far as I was growing organic, in soil without adding any nutrients except molasses and blood meal. I have been using some kind of tea also BUT as I said the yield was enough for me (about 10 ounces dry:lol:) and I didn't use any fim or scrog tech (I had a lot of room and noise and smell were not a problem at all)
BUT this is over I moved another time, to another country, as I did before>
It's a lot of excitement, the pleasure to discover a new country is awesome:hump: and I hope you will forgive my bad English as it is not my native language.
Anyway, I would like to grow as I miss my own weed, I miss growing:cry:
So here is the plan. There is a closet in my apartment with enough room to put a grow tent like the one you can find online at 100 cad the size is 48"x24"x60"
Not a big one but hey that's what I will have to deal with.
I want something without any noise so my 600 watts HPS is out (the noise is between a vacuum and an airplane):bigjoint:
Sooo I've watched the Mau5 channel on youtube, I've read some awesome grow reports done by people on this site and finally sent an email to a guy at Rapidled. The budget is another issue for me at this moment so I wanted something modular :
Here is the set-up
Canopy rail w/ 4 pin heatsinks and accessories
1 X Mean Well HLG-320H-C2100B
4 X VERO29SE 3500K 80 CRI Poke In
4 x SURSEAL Thermal Pads
10 x WAGO connectors
1 x 3-Prong US Power Cord
20' x bulk wire
4 x LEDIL Stella-H Lens

To be more precise the Vero is a D model 37,6v fv
The driver output ranges from 76v to 152v
I will also use soil like Foxfarm and a SoG with 2 to 3 plant . I was thinking to 1 Timewreck and 2 LSD.
I was expecting at least to yield 7 to 8 ounces:rolleyes::rolleyes::eyesmoke:
Do you think that it is realistic ? :weed:

Im currently running a 600mh/hps is a 2x4 tent. I use a very quiet fan and extract my air outside, no a/c. I can yield 10-14 easy in coco/fabric pots.

mh/hps setup can be had for 200 with a dimmable digital ballast, bulbs included. Personaly I think spending the extra $50 and getting the glass enclosed hood is worth its weight in gold, and I think is the key to running a 600hps with no a/c and keeping temps below 80
