I used to get something that looked like that at a roadside stand in Roundrock, Tx, I think the place was called Smokey Joes. I'm not sure what was in it but, it sure was good!

I'm looking at converting to ebb and flow with 2x4 table for veg/mothers and a 2x4 table for the flower room. Looking at running 2 600's since I already have a 600. Their some nice grows I've seen with 400's with ebb and flow too. So maybe 2 400's would work good. What are you looking to do/yield? how many plants etc.?

Well I'm sure youve read the article on here about getting a harvest every two weeks. In his set up I believe he uses four trays in his set up. I wanna just use two big trays end to end say forty plants where I harvest ten every two weeks and ten clones go in on the other end. sort of a production line. Maintain four mothers all of different strains so I harvest ten of each strain every two weeks (not sure if this is making since I'm pretty gone right now) That's why I'm wondering if two 600's will be good enough to maintain that many plants. I'm thinking either 0 veg sog or like two weeks of veg than flower. dunno.

I've been told you should shoot for 45 watts of HID lighting per square foot. So, on a 5X10 room, 50 square feet, you are looking at 2250 watts. I personally think that is a little on the high end, but more light is always better. That tent is HUGE Niko. LOL

I like the secret jardin tents right now, in particular one like this:

I like it because you can keep mothers and/or clones up top and veg or flower down below. Its two compartments in one, saving space. Throw the t5's up top and your hid down below. They are expensive but VERY nice.
Thanks dude, Looks like I'd need a ladder to get up to the top compartment lol. I just wonder if thatd be enough space for two flood and drain tables.
My local hydro store is running a package where for 1200 you get two 2x4 flood and drain tables with the tables and resevoir AND two 600 watt H.I.D's with digital ballasts and air cooled hoods. Seems like a pretty sweet deal.

Well tell me what you think of this. Imagine your looking in on a garage from the doorway. on the left would be that ten foot tent with two large flood and drain tables holding forty plants. Then on the back wall would be my mother's and then probably a small homemade flood and drain for the clones to grow alil. Then on the right wall I'm thinking folding table to do all my trimming and mixing etc on next to that would be a storage cabinet for drying then I've got an old dresser I'd put next to it for all of the jars curing weed. Sort of a production line so to speak.

5/8/11 Update: Those odd orange stripes/spots are now on the sugar leaves of the main cola in front of the plant that originally had this problem (dont even know if it is a problem. The nute burn doesn't seem to be getting worse. Hopefully if this is some sort of problem I can either correct it or keep it in check long to not have to harvest early. blah. I've googled RBC pics and have yet to see any others with these orange spots so either I've got some sort of problem or a phenotype that doesn't show up a whole lot.

I know what your saying. Your either talking about AIBFUCT or the See more Buds video.

I was going to do this as well. However harvesting every 2 weeks is a lot of work bro. I decided to do every month or every 2 months. Instead of doing a 0 veg and forcing into flower. I would be able to veg them for a month or two depending on the cycle and yield about the same off less plants.

In Texas bro 40 plants is some serious time. same as here. So I figured less plants, same yield. Why not?

Yeah the laws are pretty draconian. Yup ALBFUCT whatever happened to him? Dude check that pic above and tell me what you think. Can't decide if its ph, cal mag, or wtf it is but its annoying the living hell out of me.

always meant to ask what state your in bro? how many plants would you do for the same yield as forty ?

Probably 15 plants vegged for 8-10 weeks of course a lot will depend on environment, strain and lighting.
Very true, I'm definitely gonna give AN a try. I like that Canna is organic but it feels like it leaves my plants lacking somewhere.

Hey you think this far in that more of the hairs should be turning from white? I say this becaus alot of the lower buds are full of orange hairs and the main colas just have a few to none. Still got a ways to go before harvest but I'm still nervous.

I'm sure their fine bro. I don't have a lot of experience growing Sativa dom's.

My RBC has white pistils everywhere still 2 days and it will be in flower for a month.

I'll be able to let you know if it seems normal by the time you harvest lol which doesn't help much. Each plant is different though and your's look very healthy so I wouldn't worry about it much bro. I was just looking at the LA's and their branches are starting to sag from the weight :)

I'm going to start flushing tomorrow, Hopefully be chopping in 10-12 days or less.
