Okay mr one hit wonder lol jk but really what u fucking with and what would u reccomend to somone if money was not a an issue and u wanted to do a three three room rotation set up pulling a 5 pds a month

Room number one; clones, veg, veg, veg and yet more veg. It's a perpetual, so planning is key.
Rooms two and three; run them on a flip schedule and run them a month apart. That way you get a crop monthly. Lots of ways to get 5 a month, it just depends on space, watts available, etc, etc. I run water chilling to cool my growroom air and dehumidify plus it cools my RDWC water. I only recommend water chilling for environmental control if you can install it on a semi permanent basis, it's not really for rentals. I use dry nutrient salts, it costs less than five cents on the dollar compared to most water bottle brands. I grow vertical because it's space efficient, easy on my back and saves power. I use 860W CDM lamps because they run on cheap thousand watt magnetic ballasts and because they have amazing spectrum.

You got questions, I got answers...

It has nothing to do with being sensitive....No-one was calling me names.

Yes, calling out disinformation is the right thing to do, but there's no reason to call someone a fucking idiot while doing it.

"RIU is the best by far"........seriously?

I have noticed that the birds seem to chirp a little more in the morning and that the sun shines just a little brighter, when I start my day off, by calling someone a "fucking idiot".

Before you buy CO², get your environment fully sealed and fully stable. Before buying an R/O filter, buy a good quality pH pen and an EC meter. I use a Bluelab combo meter. It's expensive but for hydroponics your instruments are your eyes for water quality. Cheap shades won't cut it. Your EC meter will tell you if you need additional water filtration.

You know I'm going to suggest a vertical grow, right? Lol

First, I need to know what your goals are. Tell me what you're looking to do and that will help me give you better advice.

EDIT: 5 a month, I just saw above. Anything else? Limitations of the space or building site? Budget?

The system I'm perfecting would suit your needs almost exactly. It's vertical, so it's a lil bit more veg time, but in a perpetual system that's not an issue.

RDWC trees on vertical trellises in front of bare 860W CDM lamps hanging vertically. Seal and CO² and 4 lb a month would be lowball.

How many watts total? How long do you veg? And have you actually pulled 5lbs with your current setup monthly, or you are in the middle of it?

clearly you are not expert, but trying to act like one, I'll eat you alive.

If you think 4K is going to equal 15 to 20lbs you are by far the biggest idiot on this site.

Ever heard of gram per watt?

Even the most experienced growers have trouble hitting 15lbs on a 10K

And 50 to 100 under 4K is not to much, ever heard of SOG.

Fucking inexperienced stupid fuck.

Say something! Anything loser

This rack pulls 3400-4300W of 860W CDM lamps, six plants, each one producing an average (currently) of 19zips. Veg up to three months, but I've recently discovered how they won't need that long in the future. The Lab continues to make improvements. BTW, I make the above numbers WITHOUT UVB or CO² supplementation... so my clients know the yield figures are conservative for the equipment.

I could put one of these in each of her two bedrooms and that would comfortably beat her goal.

Cool. Could do a Super Silo that's a bit over 5'6" in diameter. Four plants. I've pulled 5 from 2580W, or three 860W CDM lamps.

Do you have two bloom rooms, or is the second room just for veg?

The best way is to do two bloom rooms on a flip....
