On the subject of cost of power and stupid big lights and bills:

Thanks to the economy, I now qualify as low income with my electric company. There is a fixed rate I can get on being under 35k I think it was, still working on it, but anyway you can get a flat reduced rate bill no matter how many thousands of watts you run it will be at the base rate per kw/h rather than going up the more you use like normal rates.

It may be something others could take advantage of... Check with your power company.

I am legal/medical. No worries about power consumption.

i just don't see 4lbs per plant there, so i would have to say NA on that onehell i got 3 lbs off one 10fter outdoors and there was a hell of a lot more buds on her than that.

Yeah, That is a lot of bud per plant... i mean jesus, the main stalk has to literally be like a tree to support 4 lbs of bud (and that's dried... figure that bitch would have about 9 pounds of bud and leaves hanging off it before harvest)...

If it works, a one plant setup like this would be insane.... enough to support most growers habits...

The big plants in this scenario have 4kw of light on each of them though, so you simply can't compare that to a plant you gave 1k. Compare it to four of those plants maybe as a starting point, then add a bit more for the better hydro system and dialed in nutrients and co2 in an ideal sealed room.

Are we only growing one plant with each light or are they somehow sharing? There are 10 plants, with an average close to 4kw ea, ea has light on all sides as much as possible but there isn't 40kw of light total.

The benefits of numbers. One plant wouldn't be ideal, so this is sort of a go big or go home kind of thing.
