Well I remember back in the day when I said I would never put my 400 watt down. But that day has come of course, so here it is.... Oh and of course don't be shy at all and post pictures of your set-up as well....














oh yeah and my new bong....

I went 1000 watt and never looked back. I will start 40-50 plants per light and can finish 25+ plants per light depending on the strain.

This setup is cheap and will crank out 2 lbs.+ per light.

Here are some pictures of my last grow. It was done using 4 - 1000 watt HPS and the final harvest was 6.5 pounds bone dry. I wish I would have taken pictures later in bud, but I lost interest in picture taking and now I'm kicking myself. Next crop is on it's way and it consists of the exact same setup and strain (AK47) so I will take some this time around and post them. Hopefully I can yield a little more this time around with the room not being so hot as summer is almost over. Another three weeks and they should be well on their way.

1000 is the best costs a little more to run but its all worth it when it comes time to get your goods

on average (i know each strain is different) how many plants per light do you need to reap in 2lbs?

cause I just switched to a 1000watter but this time around im only looking at 3-4 females and was wondering roughly what to expect.

Lots of variables. Strain, veg time, etc. I use LST and grow 6-8 plants with a veg time of 7 weeks. I use to pull on ave 2 lbs. I have since moved and I'm on my first 400 watt grow. Since yo have 4 plants, veg them long and train them. On one grow I had 3 plants vegged 8 weeks and each plant yielded 7.5 oz's dried.

1000 is all I know...

Current setup is custom fit to my 1kw HPS:

4x4 framed, plywood walls, finished inside with panda poly. Using a 5kBTU a/c for the flower pod. Air cooled 1kw in modified draw cool tubes, feeding into an 8"fan that pushes it through a homemade carbon scrubber. Temps are steady at about 68F lights on, and 58-62F degrees lights off.






It's about time we had a club

haha i have that exact same digital thermometer. have you noticed if yours reads slightly different temps at the base VS the probe? mine can be off by as much as 2-3 degrees even with the bass and the probe being right next to each other.

hey, btw is it just me...or does something about a perfectly squared up 4x4 area with a 1k just sound perfect? maybe i have OCD lol
