I'm looking to start a grow in a space that is 8 feet high 8 feet wide and 4 feet deep, I was thinking a perpetual sea of green method with 4 areas, splitting the space down the middle both vertically and horizontally so I would have four 4x4x4 spaces, first area being fresh clones, the second stage being clones after a week or so, and stages 3 and 4 will be flowering stages, I would like to harvest at least every two weeks, and I was thinking 4 plants per foot for a total of 64 plants per stage, now I know it's insane to ask, but with unlimited money, is it possible to give a sog that size enough boost to produce close to 1oz per plant or more? I would like to harvest 4 or more pounds every two weeks. Is there anyway this is possible? And I mean with everything possible being perfect?

To be frank, no its imposible to harvesfour pound out of a 4x8 space every two weeks. Youll be lucky to harvest three pounds every two months if you get really creative with it. And id just do your clones in your closet or in another location and focus on production in your temp controled space.

Well I need a consistent supply, and sog seams way more efficient than just a growing a few plants to full space in 2-3 months, with four 4x4 sections I would rotate plants for a bi monthly harvest, i just want to know if I have co2, proper nutes, soil, and 1000w for each 4x4 pad, growing 64 plants per pad (4 per foot) trimming all sides and lower leaves to promote upward growth only, and only growing to 2 feet tall, could I expect an ounce or more per plant? I've seen photos of sea of greens that are 4x4, and the colas are two feet long coated with buds with an average of 26g per plant, he had a good set up but lacked co2, and I've seen increases of up to 40% using co2. Has anyone here done single stock/cola plants that fit 4 plants per foot?

Ya, you need to identify a great single cola yielder and you can hit a zip a plant. The problem is that if your height is 4 ft then you have to have the light about 18"-2ft away. Thats not a lot of room for plants to grow. Cool tube would have to be right against the top and you wouldnt have really any room for a pot for them to live in. Your trying to do something that is really complicated and i think your going to have a hard time at it. Id start simple and just try for two compartments at first and the if you think you got this then double it up.

I hear some have done it, but running a perpetual grow out of just one room is tough. Vegging plants need 18-24 hours of light daily and flowering plants get 12 hours. So if you stick to one room you will have alarm clocks and blankets hanging all over the place.

Other things to consider from a perpetual grower -- Count on devoting 3-4 times as much floor space for flowerers than veggers. I actually use 3 rooms for my grow that harvests 2 plants a week . My dome room is actually 2 shelves in a closet with a 75W bulb and heat mats running 24/7. My veg space is half of my laundry room, about 4 x 6 feet, with a 400W MH bulb on 24 hours. My flower room is 8 x 8 with a 1000WHPS on 12/12.

Good luck, BigSteve.

Right on thanks for the tips, but I was thinking of using LED lights, the ones I was looking at were 300w panels about 4" thick and I could 2 in each 4x4 room, would LEDs need the same 1.5'-2' space? They emit almost zero heat so I thought maybe I could possibly get them as close as possible thus saving space
