I have two bedrooms setup for flowering...
The first three pics are of Room 1, which has two 1000w HPS's over two 3'x3' e/f tables that i use as drip tables, i use rockwool slabs and most of the canna nutrients, but i add silicate in Veg and Bloombastic in Flowering. I also place some potted organic dirt plants on a stand between my two tables to take advantage of the unused lighted space in between the tables in room 1... the big table here is sour Diesel in week 7, the small table here is random kush strain on day 3 of flowering.
The last pic is of Room 2 at 25 days into flowering... pic is in the dark on this one... this room has two 1000watt systems over an 8ft. homeade drip table. this is a weird sativa strain that always droops at night and looks lankey at first... but it fills in nicely and has an incredible hazey smell.
My veg room (not pictured) is in a third bedroom, it consists of a 400w MH over a 3'x3' e/f table with plants in 3" rockwool cubes that get transplanted into the slabs. I use Flourescants and two 50-site cloning trays with domes for cloning my mothers which are under the 400w MH next the the veg table.
Pics of flowering below, these 3 tables are spaced about 15-20 days apart, it varies a little. But, basically i get two 1000w harvests and one 2000w harvest every 60 days, i average 1.5 lbs per 1000w or 1 lb every 10 days. I am growing what is supposed to be "sour diesel" primarily... along with some random strains i have collected... My S. Diesel strain looks and smells like it should but it only takes 55 days, which makes me think it may be something different...
I know its not the perfect setup yet, but i have been working with a tight budget, all my equipment was bought used off of craigslist for pennies on the dollar (except bulbs, nuets, medium), i had aquired clones 2 months before i rented this space and started turning them into mothers and more clones in my closet at home...
So by the time i rented this old farm house in BFE, i already had two tables worth of plants ready to flower... Anyway my operational cost on this location is $1500 per month to pay rent, utilities, nuets, medium, misc... My initial investment was $4000 and 4 months time total before my first harvest... and this operation now yields 3 lbs per month... not bad... I hope to get it up to 2lbs per 1000w with the knowlege I gain here on this site, that would be a pound per week on this system!
As of now i have constant fresh airflow, but i have yet to add CO2 or air scrubbers... I will add those soon... i do have an ozonator stuck inside the air intake on the central air of the house. This sends small amounts of ozone to every room in the house constantly. No one lives in the house so this does not bring up any health issues and it takes care of most of the excess odors...
This is my first setup in over 5 years, back then i had basically the same setup, but its a new day with all new strains and products to try, i have had all these tables finish once so far, and i am dialing it in everyday!! Comments, Questions, Criticism???
