Im thinking of going a bit bigger with my flower room. I have access to 8 400 watt hps. These were installed in a high school gym and they went to 1000 instead of the 400s. I can get them for $20 each. I was considering 4-6.
What will i need to do if i want to install these 4-6 llights? Will i need to put in a seperate breaker and wire in new outlet and all that? I hope i wont but i think i will. Im no electrician and dont know 1. Besides i couldnt afford to hire one.
What do you think of these lights? A 400 hps ballest is a 400 hps ballest right??
Will i be able to seperate the ballest from the rest of the light. As these are one peice units? Is this pretty simple? I want to do this because i figure it be alot easier not having to hang all those heavy units.
What will be best configuration for 4 lights and/or 6 lights?
I got a spare bedroom. It is approx. 10ft x 10ft square, with a little 3foot x 6 foot extra by the door when u walk in. I was going to paint it flat white, although i do have some mylar to usem but not enough for the entire room. BTW it has 8 foot ceilings.
Anothe question on the lights. What can i do or use to make a cheap reflector for them all. Can i use like bamboo and mylar to make a reflector?
Im thinking of trying a small hydro set up for part of this room, but that is still in the air. I got more fish to fry right now getting the basic flower room set upp etc..
What number of plants can i do? Regular trees?
I did a sog b4 with 3 quart containers and pro mix. It was great. I think id like to go that route again if i stick with the soil. Well i really anticipate staying in soil for 1-2 more grows anyhow. What would be the configuration on this. How many plants? Id like to use the 3 quart pots again, as i have bout 100 of them. They are actually brand new, black ice cube buckets from a hotel. I bought them all at an auctiion or yard sale cant remember.
I know there are alot of questions and im all over the place. I just blazed a nice bowl of some purple urkle and im flying
Im kind of a dumbass, and i really need some expert advice. Actually i need someone to hold my hand and teach me. Speak to me like im 5 so ill understand Maybe i smoke too much? IDK!! So what u all think? Questions, comments, complaints, answers???!!!
Thank you all very much
