your high again Brando! lol..congrats on the new condo.She looks like she's getting much better! The leaves look shiny and resinous or am I just really high? lol
I'm moving into my condo in two weeks and have a 5 feet wide by 3 feet deep and 6.5 feet tall that I really want to grow in. Do you think I should get a 600w hps and a tent for this space? Any recommendations would be amazing! I've been researching a lot lately but am a little overwhelmed with all of the stuff to buy lol.
i think you should get a Secret Jardin DR 90 which i believe is the next size down from a Secret Jardin DR 120..
Check the Secret Jardin Tent sizes and i would purchase the one that will fil your space.
A Dimmable adjustable Lumiteck ballast will be great . Along with 600 HPS light.
With the 600 watt light and dimmable ballast you can adjust your ballast to 400 watts in a smaller tent because the heat of the 600 in there will be hard to control.. and if you get the larger tent you can bump it up to 600 watts.
You can start you baby in there as well with the ballast set at 360 watts.

why dont you do a hydro waterfarm scrog? you can grow one massive plant and get a huge yeild.
go to the art store and get wood frame painting stretcher bars to fit your tent perfectly from side to side( the wood comes in all sizes and is has premade corner fittings to snap it together) .
drill small screws into the top of the stretcher frame an inch apart all the way around and string it up like a tennis raquet.
Get 4 small clamps with handles that you can grip to the tent pole and place your scrog frame to lay on top of them inside the tent.
You will need a filter and exhaust fan (silent TD one is good) and at least one or 2 small oscilating fans.
Best to have your PPms under 250 tap or you should get a portable R/O water filter and small rain barrel to store your water in.
Nutes to use would be Flora Nova Bloom and Biotanicare Cal Mag. PPm meter is needed as well. Hydroton pebbles need to be washed very very thouroughly before using. A small rock wool cube for starting your seedling in....a dual diaphram general hydroponics air pump and and extra airstone for in your bucket.
I think you should be able to get everything for under a grand.
i can find you pictures of all the gear you need to make it easier for you if you decide to go this route. I do think you will
truley enjoy this way of growing. Its clean and simple and plants grow this way are so unique... , more like bushes then trees.
you should get at least 10 oz if not way more... any help you need, im here.
