about how many 400 w hps should i use for maximum yeald on 30 35 plants roughtly

for maximum yeild on 30-35 plants...a lot

I just started running a 1000w hps with mh bulb 20/4...hope it doesn't jack up the electric bill too much...since I started using it I stopped using the heat though, I rarely turn on other lights, and I unplugged everything unnecessary, great temps in the grow room... boy its been chilly in the house though. Came out of my room yesterday and my roommate was eatin cereal with a jacket and ear muffs on...what a pussy

hahaha @ eating cereal with jacket and ear muffs....


kodak moments!!!

yeah i had no idea growing would be so fun and consuming at the same time, I'm lovin it even though I had to go from sleeping in the buff to sleeping in sweatpants and a sweatshirt and seeing my roomy eat breakfast in his winter gear

so let me get this straight.

my bill says (over 1000 kwh at 0.06227) so is that an hour?

say we are running 3600watts. for 12 hours a day.
would it go like this?
3600 x 12hours = 43200 divided by 1000 = 43.2 kwh used
now 43.2 x 0.062270 = 2.690064$ day x 31 days = 83.391984$ month.
hmmm seems very cheap doesnt it?

you rural people got it made. IM PAYING 15 cents a kwh. im holding my bill right now. 1100 kwh last month.

but are we telling the whole story here.

theres a delivery charge

theres a sbc/rps charge.

theres a sales tax charge

actual electric is far less than what i pay, hell i spent 60 on the delivery charges alone untaxed
and my bill is 250 total to reference.

Can anyone take a guess at how many KW/h per DAY you can get away with without sending alarms ringing?

Lets say we have 6 1000watt lights going at 16 per day, thats 96 kw/h in a day.
thats about 5-6 bucks a day = $150 month.

Do you guys reckon that you can get away with 12 1000 watters?

I am planning to make a flowering room out of an entire basement.
Probably an area of 16'x12'.

I'm looking to dedicate about $500 of electric bills a month to growing only.

Is that the kind of figure that would raise eyebrows?
I live in Canada, Ontario by the way.

12 1000 watters! !

gotta go back home and change my pants..

fuck...not again :/

You're going to burn your house down.
