I am a total noob, first time operation on my own (i.e., one man operation), and would like to produce the most amount of bud with the least amount of work and hassle (don't we all), and ideally keep an ongoing crop regularly producing a sizeable quantity.

My goal is to begin within about two months and I will have ten grand to work with.

What would you do?

buddy your cruisin for a bruisin,

you cant just drop $10k on your first grow, there will be many mistakes in the beiginning and many wrong purchases and lessons you will learn,

you cant go from 0 - 60 with growing

i suggest start out with a 600watt light and do one succesful grow before you even think about going that big. have you even thought about where you would get all the power needed for such a huge grow? how much per month are you trying to produce?

you are way way way ahead of yourself and might end up doin a lot of time.

10,000 on a hydro setup could ALSO be the biggest fail in the world. go with Harvest times post!

I also HIGHLY HIGHLY HIGHLY Recommend a carbon filter or 3.

I've spent about half that.... $5k so far on my setup in total including everything and I'm not even done. You can keep spending money forever.

If I had another 5k I'd upgrade the veg rack lights, add C02, upgrade one of my 1,000watt reflectors, maybe upgrade to digi ballasts, add 2 light movers (i plan to do this soon) etc..

40 in flower at a time. Just finishing up a batch of 16 five gallon pots, but starting next round we will do 40 a time in smaller pots.

panda bear gave you great advice....I am new and bought so much shit i didnt even need in the end...keep it simple stupid, yet still go big enough to succeed. sometimes more so then money you have to work with what you have in terms of space, location etcc.. for example i have 10 g's to put into my grow but certainly i can only do so much within the boundaries of my closet space. I have spent a few thousand already but if i had the space would love to spend more
