I would just buy another 600, and have 2 x 600w. Probably use about the same power and will give you a nice ven spread over the area you have.

But hey, according to some people, a 1000 is the only wasy to go, lmfao
I propose an inquiry to the distinguished panel!

I just picked up an 8x4 tent, should i swap my 600w magnetic ballast for a 1000w digital ballast? I also use a 400w digital on a xxxl hood. What kind of yield increase could one expect from a 600->1000? Is it worth $160, considering i'm 2 weeks away from flipping 8 kush 'n cheese to flower?
Floink!
Floink, floink!
(*imagine a Don Martin character)
2/3-lbs of "organic" beef, 4 slices of 'Merican Cheddar (Tillamook, Medium), and about a potatoes worth in chips.
And it is good!
Nom, nom, nom, nom, nom!!!!

Yum yum, Doobs. Always coming with the muncy pics!!!!!!

My success comes from all the people who say 1000 watt is the only way to go.
eh? Seriously, don't be preaching shit like that around here, lol. You'll have a fight on yer hands. And anyone who says a 1000w is the only way to go is an ignoramus maximus! Lights size depends on your set up, period.

Lots of people have pets and plants. I would say most growers have pets and I can only remember hearing one story of someones dog eating everything. If you want a pet, get a pet and keep them away from the plants.
i love dogs but i'm a lazy bastard and don't have much of a yard. i like cats but have never owned one. i do like that they don't need to be taken for walks.

Some people are dirty fuckers that have no business owning animals because they can't take care of them / themselves which creates a dire unsanitary situation. If you're clean, I don't see the problem. My cats shit box gets cleaned 2x/day minimum. I know some shit bags that clean their box like once a week...how would you like to flush your toilet once a week?



Be clean and sanitary and you'll have no problems. I have a dog as well.
yeah, i'd have to clean it out as soon as it left the box. blech!




it's a dog's life. :)

i used a 1000 watt for about 12 years. i have used a 600 watt for about 4. the average yeilds with the 600 are about 1/3rd less. which is still more than enough to meet my needs.

Just so you know... my neighbor has a dog and she never walks it. She opens her front door to let the thing out front for a pee, and thats it. Dog seems pretty happy. It's doing a lot better in stuck in that house vs. being put down by the shelter. The dog's a death row rescue. If you get a smaller dog you could make it work with minimal walking. I give my neighbor grief for not walking it more often... but the truth of the matter is she treats that thing well, and loves it, and that's about all a dog can ask for.

I swear I'm not trying to talk you into a pet or anything. I just know how much happiness my pets add to my life, and I know my mom never had pets her whole life till a few years ago, she got 1 cat, and she says she can't even imagine what life was like before. I would just hate for you to miss out on something/ someone that could make you super happy. And it's great, because while the little critter makes you happy, you can make it happy. Just add food and water lol.

I about fainted when I saw your multiquote. Nice. :)

"I about fainted when I saw your multiquote. Nice" . :lol: i wasn't as high as usual.


i appreciate your input. i truly want a pet. part of the concern is what happens if i can't take care of it anymore? i'm pretty healthy but shit happens and then the poor thing would probably be back to the pound.

i was thinking of getting an older shelter dog. but i will love it and then it will die in a few years. i've had enough death in my life. but i would at least make it happy for awhile and it would make me happy. i don't know.


i'm conflicted. i will give it some serious thought though.

thanks. :)

We'll see if this new bulb works or not. I don't know what the deal is with my old bulb... if I got ripped off, or if the dual spectrum doesn't 'look' as bright. All I know is that I got a new to me 1000w bulb, been used 2 flowering cycles I think. I put it in and I've NEVER seen light this bright. When I open the closet with my back turned to it, I have to squint because of the light it chucks into the bedroom. I really don't know if my plants are going to like that much light.

So maybe.

There is help out there for stuff like that. There might be a local humane society you can talk to, tell them your situation. Like with my cats, we adopted two of them from the humane society. They have a deal where if I can't take care of the animals anymore they take them back no questions asked. Peeps around you might have a similar deal, you tell them you want a shelter dog but aren't sure how long you can take care of it, they might say, go ahead and get it, we got your back.

You can find help for money too. Sometimes the county will give you money to take care of animals, or humane societies, groups. Rubbermaid gives away free totes if you are going to use them for feral cat shelters. There is so many people out there who are crazy about animals it's ridiculous. And a lot of them are willing to help you help animals.

dude. i think you've talked me into a pet. maybe.


i'll do some serious looking around and see what's up.

now i have to figure out which i want, a dog or a cat. then i'd end up getting them a friend to play with...

i might end up as the crazy cat guy. :)

As a person who's owned both cats and dogs I can assure you that dogs are the way more ass kickier pets :) Cats get that I'm better than you attitude that I already get enough of from society! Dogs will take every bit of attention you wanna give them at any time! Some other guy I won't mention is going to pipe in with something about cats awesomeness but don't you dare listen to him.

I can't wait to hear whatever that person has to say. lol

And don't worry Fatboy, I got the crazy cat guy locked down.

EDIT: My one input. Dogs need constant attention, cats need almost none. If you are one who likes being needed, get a dog. If you want a pet you might not notice sometimes, get a cat. We've left our cat alone for 3 days in the house. Not sure you can do that with a dog.
