I have 26 plants now in soil, and 2 600's and a 400 hps. I have as much room as my lights will support plus much extra. I want bigger plants, and figured the 5 gal buckets would give me that with all that root-mass room.
hahaha thats the dam truth i know i do but if your not always aiming higher whats the point right
I have limited resources, and want the most for my $$, but if I was rich I would still want more I guess.
those are some really healthy looking plants! I am surprised of the size of them in those small pots aw well...impressed!
that sound good, what kinda yield could I expect from that?
ya 1 4x8 is prably cheaper and i could easily see each plant pulling about 28g or more if done correctly so i would say on the low side of a not so good harvest expect around 2 lbs just off that tray and you still have a 400w too so geez could always do more if you wanted. do you have air cooled reflectors.
dont know if your asking me these questions but the answer if you are the link i gave as a reference is not i repeat NOT my grow and if you look at his grow he has everything he has 9600 watts in his flowering room alone thats 16 600W hps's burning 2 on light movers per two trays co2 i mean everything he is putting like 110 plants per tray just click the link and read its like a 30 page thread. and i said wasnt sure and not to quote me on the yield its been a while since i have been on there so like i said look for yourself and feel free to correct me if im wrong.
for the light movers not quite sure how you had yours set up but those are both 600's on a quick skim over the tops basically would be eliminating the need for a 3rd light so technically a 3rd light would be just as effective pretty sure he tries both ways and says there are same yield so if it was 3 600's it would be more like 1.7 grams per watt is that better
