Oh yea, now were cooking.My total area is like 20ft by 12ft and you will love not having to stumble through all the maze.I started with a 4x5 10high for flower and 3x3 for veggin,and it sucked to say the least not to be able to walk around the areas thats how my digi lost its life by falling into my res.I stumbled and of all the places it coulda landed was in the damn res.Now all you have left is to figure how you want your setup as far as flowering chamber,veggin and clone space.Ever think of doing a perpetual harvest??I did one all summer as it was impossible to do my hydro they raise the amount for a kw in my area during the summer and not wanting a 800 dollar electric bill soil was my choice.It takes awhile to get a 5 plant rotation going but when its full taking 5 every 2 weeks has aloud me to have plenty of well cured smoke and theres no comparision to a good long cure IMO.

800? how many kw were u using?....yeah i gotta get my shit into that room...while i was checking them my top fell in and broke one in half...and forced me to transplant my betty crockerr one...its in a bigger pot now so thats good but all hell broke loose for a sec...as far as a grow, ive been thinking what to do...i like the perpetual grow, it would b nice to have a regular stash...i defintly want to stick to soil though, i like the taste of soil bud bttr than hydro...what coould i hrvest a month with a 1000wts? hopefully enough to cover electric which i have yet to find out what a kw's average cost is...lol

i'm strting to think about this 1000wts...that 1 kw per hour....is that something that is going to throw up flags? im thinking about changing to a 600hps it will still give me gr8 light in the new room....im only using a 5 by 4 area for flower....i just dont want to get a 1000wt and end up getting busted...thats an increase of about 280 buks to my bill...might look suspicious....I NEED SOME HELP WITH THIS ONE....what so u think?

fox farm are good nytes, i personally use bio-bizz but it is totally ur choice, im glad so hear ur getting the 600w, i think the 1000w would have been probs a bit much, neways good luck and hapy growing.

Do your plants a favor and only remove fan leaves that are dead,these leaves do block light but bye far help the plant with sugar ,another thing LST does just had to get that in there lol.Train em by bending the fan leavesout of the way so that the light reaches to potential budding sites.The only cutting i do is for cloning and harvesting.

so i set up a tote box for cloning with 6 cfls in it...still havin trouble figuringout how to separate my room....what i want to do is just have part of that room a 12 hr dk room....that way i just move the flowering plants into it daily and remove it when all the plants are in the light cycle...the 600 wt will b on 20/4 so the dark room will only b used 8 hrs a day. at the end of the 8th hour the 600 will turn off and all the plants will share the last 4 hrs of dark...it will b a little bit of apain but im in there constantly anyways....does what im doing make sense enough to work??...that way i can keep my autos in there all the time and grow anything...then move the flowers to the dark instead of setting up two se[erate rooms

Do yourself a favor and go ahead and make a seperate room for flower and veg.Trust me moving plants everyday gets old real fast and you have become tied down and cant even leave for 24 hrs.Having to be somewhere everyday at the same time is a pain are it was for me,just to move plants.The more you dont have to be there allows me more enjoyment now,But im still almost there the same amount of time and im the boss not the plants if that makes any sense.When you make this a full time job like moving plants overtime it gets old and pleasure becomes WORK.
