I just figured out that the 400 watt hps will cost roughly 12.39 cents/ month thats not including my timers pumps and fans. But I want to grow a split room type thing, One veg. chamber one flowering and i was going to use my old four foot flouros for the mother plants and clones (if i can get...

Two flourescent fixtures (4 foot tubes) two 20 inch 24 watt flouros a computer fan, fish tank light, two timers (heavy duty outdoor ones) raising the electric bill 70 bucks?

I think I figured it out myself but I'm not sure. Does this sound right? 144kwh - $12.38(12/12) 216kwh - $18.58(18/6) 288kwh - $24.77 (24/0)

What if I buy the 400 watt one then will it use, like, 144 roughly? And will one of you out there, that actually understand it, figure the rough cost for running that light (the 400 watt one) for 30 days for me please. The price/kW or whatever where I live is .086. Thanks

My flowering chamber isnt gunna be large by anymeens. If you have watched the Mr. Green vid it will be about like his maybe even a wee bit smaller. My main consern with the 400 is the heat output. Will it be like super bad? Should I get a squirrel cage fan or some sort of fan to remove the heat...

Wow thanks again Videoman, By any chance do you know how many kWh would be used if I had that light on the 12/12 cycle for 1 month. I'm trying to get a rough estimate of how much it will increase my electric bill.

I did some math for a 400 watt Hps bulb, like i didnt include the ballast. I came up with a total of 144 Kw/month... does that sound right??

I don't see the point of getting 4 100 watters cause that inturn causes you to have to get 4 ballasts thus meening 4 outlets being taken up, and having to hook them all up to timers and this and that. See where I'm coming from?

Does anyone know a website that I can purchase a 250 watt hps and ballast system for "fairly" cheap... Around or under $200? (U.S. Dollars)

To my knowledge fimming is the same as topping you just cut it differently or in a different place or something and instead of having two top branches (like with topping) you could end up with sometimes as many as 8 ....... but I can't figure out where to cut it to make it do that so... Hope...

Id go with how you have it in the pic, just 2 plants at a time in the flowering chamber, but thats just me.

I was thinking the same thing Videoman haha and if not a splice then AT LEAST wrap the son of a bitch up in some electrical tape or something.

Ever ordered from Marijuana Seeds (cannabis Seeds) High Quality Low Prices

Thats all, hmm well i guess im going to upgrade after all HAHA. Thanks for being the FIRST person to actually responde with an answer that I needed/wanted haha.

Do any of you know how much more power a 250 hps light will use compared to 210 watts worth of cfls (2-105 watters) ... I know it will be more (due to the ballast and all that )but I was wondering if anyone has a general idea of how many more Kw's more? Reasons being are 1-Don't want a HUGE...

Yeah but how much more will the Hps rack up my electric bill? Thats the key reason why I don't get one.

How much Area is that amount of light good for. I have a DECENT sized area and my lights are going to be right "on top" of the plants .... Giving that they are CFL's and all. But roughly what size area do you think that amount of light is good for and how many plants. And I already know I should...

So I take it that all you Hydro Buffs must not know if I could use bleached gravel from outside or fish tank rocks or something along those lines as a medium. Thats cool.

THats the thing though, is I have the money for one I'm just a Wee bit nervous to get one becasue the whole electric bill spike and the amount of heat the produce etc.

The grow room I am constructing is going to be roughly 5 feet wide by about 4 feet deep and (due to the slope in the roof) anywhere from 4-8 feet high. the lights are gunna hang right in the middle off the ceiling (so at about a 6 foot height) with some sort of lowering system for them. I only...
