been tossing around ideas would 2 4x2 rooms with 400 watt hps flower rooms with 5 plants supercropped and topped with two veg rooms with 4 2 foot 45 watt blue spectrum lights all running at 4 weeks apart yield close to a pound a month? was looking into 600 watts but might return the one i ordered I'm a paranoid freak and wanna keep wattage to a minimum.the two flower room 12 hour cycles would run opposite shifts to keep peaks non existant. the strain i will be running is white widdow crossed with big bud. any input is appreciated. supchucka i know you will see this thread i like your input throw some ideas around bud :)

PARANOID? 200W IS HARDLY any difference at all.

running 1200w isnt THAT much... its a gaming computer and a big screen tv.

Umm, once you get it dialed in, you could MAYBE get 1lb/month with 600s. But with 2 veg rooms and 2 flower rooms, does that mean you're vegging 9 weeks?
Thats a long veg time for 5 plants in a 2x4 tent

You actually have less space than recommended and Space matters like anything else,for example i have a chosen space of 3x3x3 (is bigger but isolated) and in that space i could grow 9 plants 12/12 from seed and average 1-4oz per plant,so at minimum conditions i could harvest 9oz and optimum 36oz=2.4lbs 16oz=1lbs so it might be possible to do it while harvesting and adding new plants.Your space on the other hand 4x2 would only be able to hold 8 plants 8oz-32oz meaning 8oz=.5lbs or 32oz=2lbs but this would be a 4 month cycle and you would need at least 1x2 space for for the starting of 8 new plants 2-4 weeks from first plants (4 per square foot) which in turn will cancel out the next month since you harvested 2lbs instead of one and the month after will be the same.but you will need a lot of LST and that shit is hard work with so many plants so it is possible but i wouldn't recommend starting with HPS since the stem will grow longer and hardens quicker VS the MH.So it is possible but not as per month so to say but the average. Sorry if i got a shit load of typos im kinda smashed right now lol
