A little grow advice.

Right now they are in a space about 3'x4'. I am about to start building them there own room and I will have a flowering and a veg room, each about the same space or possibly 3x5. I am thinking about running a hydro setup that I saw a little while back. I would like to run two rows long-ways and still have a bit of room to maneuver down the side of the room. I figured I could alternate the hole location on the tubes so they each had their own little space. I would like to run all 1000's but I may go for 2 600's in each room. Advice?

Dude, I'd start out in soil first, get that down THEN make the move to hydro (if you must) Soil is so much more forgiving, and contrary to popular opinion, yeilds just as well.

I think you'd like the 600 watt better. Two in a small space like that might be a problem. I run one in a closet and it bumps the temps up ten degrees easy. I have central air and overhead fans though so no problem.

3x4 and 3x5 sound pretty small for a 1000 let alone 2 6's. You would be good with one 600 IMO.

Very nice Jack. Man. I was so tempted to start with hydro but I'm glad I went soil, sort of. RO soil .

Try organic!! You'll never ever look back.

Been thinking on organic, If I decided to not go with the hydro I was thinking about using the grow bags, I don't have a link for them but I'm sure ya'll know what I'm talking about, with some organic veg nutes. Any advice on a good liquid nute that I could use with those bags. I will link them in about 3 minutes.

Not terribly priced and everything I have read about it seems to be on the up and up.

And on another note figured out how to rep so I +rep'd everyone that pitched in their time and knowledge. You guys are awesome.

Grow bags are what I use, and you might consider the Espoma line of organic nutes. They are powdered, and are mixed in the soil at the beginning, and best of all, readily available at just about any local nursery. GREAT stuff, extremely reasonable pricing. I have used almost all of their products, and The BioTone seems to be the best veg nute, and the Bulb tone the best for flowering. You can add either the kelp or bone meal to up the P of the Biotone when you flip them if you grow from seed. All of the tones now have mycos in them, but the BioTone has a considerably greater amount

Thanks for the info Jack, awesome as always, and the BioTone Starter plus looked like it would be awesome. There were no locations to buy it anywhere near me but I an going to look around online to see if someone might distribute it and find out what it's running. A lot of there other products were nice. I am actually going to hit a shop I pass by from time to time and see what lines they carry and do some research on them in the next day or so. Thanks again bud.

I would +rep ya again if I could brother but it won't let me pass ya anymore. Lmao
