So I have done a 8 600 watt's in hydro in my last apartment. And now six 600 watt and one 1,000 watt in my new place. With a 400 watt over my moms.

I want to know how big you guys think I can go lighting wise this winter, I live in a part of the country that has mild/cold winters. And I have a A/C machine.

I was thinking of doing 3 hydro top feed banks like the one in my other threads... I.E. the apartment grow. With eight 600 watt lights above each bank for a total of 24 600 watt lights.

I have already got away with 15 600 watt lights in the past. What do you guys think should I push the envelope even more, i want to go bigger. And the winter could allow this.

Or should I do 15 600 watt lights 5 600 watt light's above each hydro bank of 55 plants?

I really wanted to go bigger this summer, but im glad i held back do to heat issues. I had to buy two standalone a/c units just to handle the 5,000+ watt's im doing now.

Thanks,

all egg's in one basket. not good, go 2 place's 12 light each,
I'm going to use my same Hydro top feed system, but change 2 things. Move from 6 inch to 4 inch PVC pipes. So I can squeeze in more plants.

And possibly covert from top feed to aeroponics. It is not that hard to do with the PVC tube style system.

Thanks, Comercial.
