I'm thinking about running 4 plants per light, so 16 lights x 4 plants for a grand total of 64 plants. Now, I'm trying to finish this run in 90 days, (30 days veg / 60 days flower). Would 5 gallon smart pots be adequate? If so, then i would only need to buy 20 bags of happy frog soil, which is costing me around $250 total at $12ish per 2 cu. ft. bag. My aim is 2 pounds per light / 8 oz per plant / 32 pounds per run, but I wouldn't mind less as long as it's at least 1 pound per light / 4 oz per plant / 16 pounds per run, anything less and this risky venture begins to become not worth it.

I grow in coco..

12 liter pots is enough for 4 weeks veg plus flower.

When I veg for 6 weeks plus 9 flower in 5 gallon pots was too big!

Soil I dont know But I think 20 liter is enough as well.

Growing beds will be easyer to water eventually and get red of the exceess water and its very cheap to make..

About your AC...
I'm not sure with industrial AC, but isn't there a "hot air return" somewhere pulling air out of (venting) the room?

It sucks the air in thru the return duct which is at the bottom of the unit, then the same air gets cooled as it passes thru the coil, and then gets blown right out supply duct which is at the top of the unit, and back to the very same room it came from. No venting ever takes place unless from the carbon filters, which have nothing to do with the ac..

So i just bought 40 bags of ocean forest and (16) 20 gallon smart pots, so I'm running 16 plants with 16 lights, 1 per 1000 watt light. I'm thinking about a 2 month veg, hoping that gives me close to 2 pounds per light. Thoughts?

I hope that little Dehuey isn't all you got! I'm sure it isn't though as it seems you have a good handle on it all. Quest 105 Dual would work great although you'll probably need 2-3...

Have you run Big Bomb before? I heard good things about it once. Do you have any back up strains?

I ran it once a few months back but it was a small grow room with only 2 1000 watt HPS lights with only one plant under each one, i ended up with 1.5 pounds off of each plant, so 3 pounds total. The smoke is awesome, and the smell is amazing, and don't get me started on bag appeal!!!

That's probably the most important part. You got it down. Myself personally would run one or two more different strain for variety. Hope you are able to recoup on your investment. Good luck!
