The cost is one thing that is troubling yes ... depends on your goals i guess .. I have 21 plants here only can sex 3 females right now... I hoping to be able to easy support 8-13 females with this 400 after I sex them up until then you can maybe support 25 plants to about mid veg but it might get a little crowded I also you a little bit of side lighting mind you with 2 florescent(16$ total) lligths and a 75watt Argro bulb from Wal Mart(5$)

You're last five pics are damn near artistic, the color is................welll...shit...I can't find the word.......beautiful?
I ordered a Quantum Digital Dimmable 600w ballast today. The best of all worlds, thanks, you inspired me.
I only grow 8 plants in my hydro setup. I was about to dump indoor and go outdoor because of the cost.

I'm thinking it was about $300 over my usual bill, but that was in hot weather and I had the a/c running. I'll guess it was $200/month on 18/6. Heat is a big factor with 1000w. That's one reason I got the 600w dimmable, when the weather gets hot I can turn it down. That will slow growth but do less damage than extreme heat. I think so anyway.
