I am gonna keep an eye on this thread. I was thinking about using hydroton for hempy buckets as well. using vermiculite causes some people problems with ph run off. and perlite by itself is to light. i will probly end up using perlite in the 2 inch rez and coco as the medium

That looks great. are u using that tray to flower or is that just veg? also is that table 2x4?

yeah its just an estimate. I have read that 1000w makes your buds more dense because it has better penetration than 600w. So many growers have told me to go 1000w and dont go lower. I really just want to grow the best I possibly can. Money isn't much of an issue. 600w wont have the...

I am definitely gonna have to look through your grows. how tall are your plants normally and how many do you stick in your tent? or better yet, do you have a link to one of your grow logs that uses this set up?

I am glad to hear that! would I be able to fit the 1000w in there with the ebb and flow table? or should I use a system that is a little closer to the ground? I really like the idea of ebb and flow. Just dont think I got the room if i use 1000hps.

I was just thinking of using that because it seems really simple. I am almost certain I am using ebb and flow, though. Dont think I would like DWC. I will try aeroponics eventually. Does anyone use this design? I would like to find more info about it. Im still interested in it.

wouldn't my buds be more dense and yield more with a 1000w? i heard you yield a half gram per watt.

would this work? http://www.jasons-indoor-guide-to-organic-and-hydroponics-gardening.com/homemade-aeroponics-system-2.html I read it on google. I cannot find anymore info on it, though. Does anyone know any more about using this design?

From the pot I usually buy, I am just not impressed with the 400hps compared to what ive seen with the 1000hps. I havn't seen any 600hps grows. I just like density. I dont want to buy a 400 or 600 hps light and then a year later buy 1000hps lights. Just want to buy stuff 1 time (not...

I would have proper ventilation. I wouldn't put 2 1000hps in a 4x8, but a 5x10 would be okay right? a 5x5 space is best with 1000hps? I could try the scrog method. that way I would only have to grow a few plants right? and still get the same yield as many plants? really i am not to sure...

This is my first grow. I have had many successful mushroom grows in the past, but havn't tried marijuana yet. I have decided to spend a few thousand to do it right the first time. when growing mushrooms, i spent a lot of money i didn't need to spend when i first started growing. So I...
