20200415_194436.jpgI have 15 plants in a room I put them in 5gallon pots I know they should be started in smaller pots but I hate transplanting I feel like it isunnecessary and can hurt the plants if dont wrong. I have 5 amnesia haze 2 big bud 5 chocolope and 3 grand daddy purple. I have them running on 2 1000 watt lights wit fox farm ocean soil. Multiple fans and a 6 in charcoal filter going to the outside. I do have my window open because it is to cold to turn the house acunit on and the window will help keep the temp in check till we can turn the ac on. I really can not keep the humidity above 35 percent because the humidifier will blow a fuse. But I have grow in worse conditions from seed and they grew just fine. I am down for suggestions since this is like my third grow and always like to try new things.

Your humidifier will blow a fuse but your lights/fans wont? Humidifiers typically dont use shit for energy, especially evaporative ones. That being said, 35% should be fine. Might wanna use some clear solo cups as humidity domes the first week though. And that is a shitload of light for seedlings. put all the pots close together and just run one 600w.

I do have the ability to lower my lights to 400 w each if you thi I that will help. I guess the humidifier pushes it right over the limit I dont know but once I plugged it up the whole room went dead

You are honestly pulling to much power through that circuit if a humidifier overloaded it. Fire hazard.

If i were you, i would run this bulb at 600w until the plants get big enough that you have to start spreading them out.

If I turn both lights to 400 each you think that will be good for a little bit

A single light at 400 would be good for a little bit but you really should run bulbs at their rated wattage its bad for them if you dont and it fucks with the light spectrum. Either way you can put all the pots right up next to each other right now and just run one light. Metal Halide bulbs are better for vegging plants and HPS are better for when you are flowering.

Probably,
I don't think there's a significant difference between our plants, most of the growers on this forum tend to push the branches apart.
I left mine growing naturally, the last two to three weeks are the hardest wait IMHO.

I wish I could use your lights, I suspect they'll give fatter nugs, I'm stuck with LEDs cos it's too damn hot where I live.
(36c most afternoons)

I suspect you'll have space problems, plenty of space with no plants, but those plants will quickly fill the room.
I've got one Red Diesel photo which took over my grow room and needed it's own space and light.
It now covers an area 3ft 6inch x 3ft 6inch and only just started flower.

These lights give off a lot of heat right now I cannot run the ac in the house since it isn't warm enough out side but when I can we will be good to go

I love the purple what is this breed
Click to expand...
The only one that actually had some purple to it is called "smoothie" by fast buds. It is a good strain, it is only about 5% purple. I have never had a dark purple strain that had any sort of potency. Those pics were all taken under my 10K finisher bulb which puts off a lot of blue/purple. From my "research" the best strain fast buds has is gelato. Second best is smoothie.
