I have a 3x6 foot space under a 1000w HID. I'm going to drop it down to 400w or 600w. The big light just costs too much to run. Your grow looks fine with the 400w.

The cost is one thing that is troubling yes ... depends on your goals i guess .. I have 21 plants here only can sex 3 females right now... I hoping to be able to easy support 8-13 females with this 400 after I sex them up until then you can maybe support 25 plants to about mid veg but it might get a little crowded I also you a little bit of side lighting mind you with 2 florescent(16$ total) lligths and a 75watt Argro bulb from Wal Mart(5$)

You're last five pics are damn near artistic, the color is................welll...shit...I can't find the word.......beautiful?
I ordered a Quantum Digital Dimmable 600w ballast today. The best of all worlds, thanks, you inspired me.
I only grow 8 plants in my hydro setup. I was about to dump indoor and go outdoor because of the cost.

I'm thinking it was about $300 over my usual bill, but that was in hot weather and I had the a/c running. I'll guess it was $200/month on 18/6. Heat is a big factor with 1000w. That's one reason I got the 600w dimmable, when the weather gets hot I can turn it down. That will slow growth but do less damage than extreme heat. I think so anyway.
