yeah atm I only have 150 amp at the house and a janky set up that the previous owner ran to the garage the I think it's just a mini box with two 12 amp breakers. The odd thing is... there are literally over 100 outlets in the ceiling, I counted lol... the person we bought that did it (a previous owner that has stopped by before to talk about the property) said his ex wife was a painter or something and was really into getting just the right light.. but to me it seems like this might have been an old school on the cheap floro set up back in the day or something lol.. But sounds like I might have a lot of work to do before I can get my set up out there the way I want it. Another project for the list.

yes it would reduce the amperage, for example i have a box that is 30 amps at 240v. it can run 4000 watts safely. if i wanted to run 4000 watts on 120v prolly need 4x 15 amp circuits assuming you dont exceed 70% of load per circuit so that would add up to 60 amps on 120v. i would say its worth it to run all your lights on 240v just get led lights that are setup to run on 240v

Hmm I think i could make this work... so is it just something on amazon like this?...

Also on secoind thought your soil plan is not going to work well. 3 gallon pots for month and half veg…. No Beuno unless your growing in coco or peat. But “super soil” won’t do. 3 gallon pots would be for straight to flower no veg time

I run photos into a 3 gallon for flower only. Go seed pot -> 1 gal -> 3 gal. They get 5.5 feet tall. You do have to water more. I’ll attach some pics. Always in pro organic soil. Never peat or coco.

As long as you let roots fill all the way out at first two stages they absolutely love it!

I just know you guys in small pots are leaving so much on table. I used to grow in small containers and it obviously “works”. But then again almost everything we throw at this plant “works”. What I’m interested in is full genetix potential. Yield, potency, overall dankness and how to grow it sustainably and economically.

Also what is pro organic soil? And how much feed to you supliment your soil with?

Do you have any late flower pictures from your previous runs?

That is the major disadvantage you feed and water more often. Other than that I’d have to disagree. Week 3 of flower, just finished stretch, zero training.

I’ll attach the nutes that I run in a photo. Vegetation gear on left, always in the middle, flower cycle on right. You can get pro organic soil from a million brands has your bone meal, sulfate from potash etc. already blended perfectly. I’ve run even miracle grow’s pro organic version from Lowe’s got same results.

Usually 8-10 oz. Dry per plant. But I run long vegetation cycles compared to a lot I see.

It’s not my first forum honey I have nothing to prove. Go grow how you wanna grow. Half the pics are sniped off someone else’s grow anyways. I’m on topic talking to homie. He can ignore my thoughts if wanted. You bringing basic troll negativity you see on forums, request a full harvest pic aggressively, then attack them as a newb if they don’t provide it.

I’m an old head idc what you think of my grow lol shit gonna smoke right and my cabinets stocked for eons.

Don't take it personally, it's sort of a system of checks and balances. You would be amazed at the numbers of new members that join one week and begin handing out information on every thread like Ed Rosenthal.Its not unusual for regulars to ask for proof he's not a fool.GL

Oh yeah it’s totally normal. It’s how you press someone online. Request deeper information, splinter and attack it, or lack of it. Basic trap door shit. I’m not sweating it lol it was a bit of fun.

In reality most canna posts can be shredded on one merit or another as it’s rarely a world class botanist.
Unless you run a batch of control plants vs. modified plants, for non biased results, the truth is none of us know. That’s how science works. Not back and forths and forum status.

I mean when people say they grow 3/4+ pound plants I want to see that shit

Google “half pound indoor cannabis plant” and choose one bro. The same way me or 60000 other people can do. Or wait 3-5 weeks and and I’ll show you one.

it’s not so different from growing say SoG, and running 10 one ounce planes under a 600W LED. You just vegetate one plant under T5 for 12ish weeks or 36” tall. Then put under the LED. You do have to water every 48H cause the roots take the entire pot up. Once they get 5-6 feet tall it’s not so wild to hold 8-10 oz. But like I said you can run 10-12 plants 12” get the same thing it’s just how I enjoy growing. I like seeing them untrained still pumping super chronic. There’s way more than one method to get top tier.
