sorry guys ive been crazy busy with work out of town alot and stuff....im going to take some pics tomorrow...actually later today and update...im glad it will be enough light...now how many plants do you think i can get under those lights with the room size if im going to do them in whole bunch of home made flood and flows...im hoping and this is hoping...that ill be able to get like 80...if i do them straight from clone and slam them....and the strain isnt a tall strain as its described...only 7-8 weeks of flower as well...let me know what you think i was thinking like 13 for each 2/3 table in small baskets or maybe just filled with with hydrotin without baskets and have 2 tables nder each light...so like 26 from clone under each 1000w...am i crazy or will i be ok?...let me know....thanks guys!!!
1000w will do that many with no problem. you can put 3 - 4 plants per sq ft if cropped right,

This may already be mentioned :dunce: but what cloning method do you use? How old are the Whiteberries now?

No need for the MH for about 10 days or so. All they need is to be convinsed it is daylight. :joint:
......I PURCHASED WHAT I WILL USE FOR THE FLOOD AND FLOW TABLE.....2 UNDER THE BED STORAGE CONTAINERS....BOTH OF THESE WILL GO UNDER A 1000W HPS....IM HOPING TO GET......20 ON EACH TABLE.....BUT THEY WILL BE VERY SMALL.....
I used something similar. Without the wheels. I was afraid they would leak around the wheels. Check out my grow. I just put the table together. I was able tog et 17 per tub. :mrgreen:
HERES A FEW PICS OF THE 1000W I GOT RECENTLY AND THE SHADES.....100 BUCKS A SET...IM STILL IN SHOCK
Very nice.
WIRE RECEPTACLES STRAIGHT FROM THE POWER BOX.....HOME DEPOT HERE I COME!!!
BE careful!
THE LAST PIC IS OF A MERCURY VAPOR BULB THAT EMITS UVB RAYS...IM GOING TO EXPIRIMENT WITH THIS TO SEE THE EFFECTS ON THE PLANTS....IM GOING TO USE IT ON HALF AND HALF TO MONITER THE RESULTS IN COMPARISON TO EACHOTHER....ANYONE EVER EXPERIMENTED WITH THIS?....IVE READ QUITE A BIT ON IT RECENTLY AND AM VERY INTRIGUED!!!
Never tried but my guess would be that it is a waste of time. Rotsaruck:mrgreen:

im gonna give er a try....tried to use it last op but it didnt work out with the space issue....yeagh i thought about the wheels but they arent attached from inside...wont affect it if i take em off...im going to have to build a nice little table to put the res under......i also have to go get the tubing as well as the pumps im going to need....the only problem im seeing is....lots of plugs...for so many things.....should i be worried in canada riunning 3 1000w's with 6 pumps and fans and stuff? i wouldnt think so...but im wondering!!!

Should be OK. What is your current KWh usage? If you are only using 500-600KWh then you are looking at a large increase. If you are using 3500KWh per month it will be no biggie to you.

You will be adding -

3KWh x 12hr day x 30days = 1080KWh per month for the lights. Add in the pumps and fans you are in the 1100-1150 range. If your power is $.05 per KWh (lowball figure) you are looking at a $55-60 dollars a month. Grab your utility bill and see what you are paying per KWh and go from there.

the clones are looking better today, quite a bit of leaves died but they all look like they adapted very well....and they stink a lot...like crazy.....the other ones in bloom are just growing so fast and crazy.....some are like over 4 feet tall....there growing way too fast...i hope they produce decent buds considering how spaced pout some of the nodes are.....the clones that i cut were very good tho...a few small nodes on each but very close together....i have to go to the hydro store to get the rest of my equipment for this weekend...i need 2 flood and drain fitting kits...around $10 each......$5 of 1/2" tubing....a big bag of hydrotin...not sure how much that costs but im guessing $40ish, 2 $30 pumps, a $20 air pump with dual outputs for both res's.....a 1000w hps bulb..probably solarmax or somthing medium priced...so $60ish.......i also need to buy some wood to make a frame to hold the tables and the res....so thats well over $200 just for that.....im in the hole...you had to have the fake wall....he he he...thats what my girlfriends says....oh well....maximum protection.....so ill add some pictures tomorrow or somthing of the clones and everything...the ones in bloom are flowering very quickly..i notice a huge difference from when i did it in soil last time......so many white hairs....happy tokin! :leaf:

i think its great, but i think the cover to the secret room could be improved alot. put a bigger object there that doesnt let any light shine though. i think you'll be alot better off.

We just don't see growers doing Sativa in Hydro that often here. Sativa gives you tall, lanky, corn stalk plants. I think you'd enjoy INDICA better.

And I assume this grow is NOT just for personal use? LOL
