Finally, my state went medical. I can grow 6 in vegs 6 in flower. Im disabled vet with PTSD and get frustrated very easily. Im on fixed income and I just cant afford the dispensaries. I have covered so much information these past weeks that says one thing and then another that contradicts it all. My brain is about to explode!!! I have a limited fund of $500 for my start up and its going fast ...lol. My lighting budget being a measly $250 total. Im am not using tents but have racks and a roll of mylar. soil and a 3 part beginner nutrients with chart, a ph meter and a couple of timers and a dozen 5 gallon fabric planers.
Now it comes time to purchase lighting. My questions are since I will be purchasing cheap Amazon 1000 watt LEDs (brand undecided) Will I be able to grow 3 plants under one 1000 watt LED? or better to but 2 cheaper 600 watts for same? What is better the purple or the sunlight colored ones (im such a noob) I plan on growing from seed and can also purchase vegetation lighting either off amazon or local fluorescent in the correct spectrum from big box retailer.
If someone could just make a couple of recommendations on the lighting Cheaper purple stuff, spider farmer (I dont understand the wattage thing) Mars lighting or any others.
I know these are nooby nuisance questions to accomplished growers but a few minutes of your time would be greatly appreciated.
