If you only have that much height remember some strains will double to triple in heigth during the first month of 12/12,I dont no the traits of that strain but its something to consider.For sure wait on the one you cut its head off to recover b4 flowering lol.I would flower them the 4 biggest in 2 more weeks.Are do the get a harvest every 2 weeks.Got butter? Parkay......lmaoim using a 70wt and 100wt hps along with 6 cfls in a 30*30* 3ft high with the option to up to 4 ft...my temp stays around 77 and the humidity in the 30s...its kinda ghetto but i hope this yeild will bring me a nice set up along wit some good smoke

At the very least move that otherbaylight inline with the other one and lower it to 18inches above the top of your plants.Then move your biggest plants under there footprint this will speed up your grow dramatically.Then use those cfls for those seedlings.You might need a clamp on fan to blow across the tops of the bulbs.I run a 400 at 12 inches from my plants by blowing the hot air from bulb away as long as it cool in there it should not burn em you can start at 2 ft to be safe and just watchem then lower them if you can,this will stop the stretch b4 it happens.And when you flower at that height your buds will be real solid and dense.The closer you can keep your lights in flower the tighter and denser your buds will be.Do you have intake and exhaust in there?? Im so stoned i dont think i spelled exhaust rt.
listen to this man, he knows wat he is talking about, i agree with wat he said

i not sure if it will be too much, althogh u may have some heat probs upgradeing to that in such a small area, a 400 or 600might be more suitable.

i will just have to make the room taller and wider...i think if i add about 3ft to the top and a foot on each side....that gives me about 13 sq ft...with 140,000 lumens.....i really dont have any cooling probs....i have a fan setup pulling the heat right off the lights....with the ratio of lumens to feet...i get a little better than what the sun puts out......yeah, i think im gonna order it

what size grow rooms do most ppl have with 1000wt hps?...i figured a 10 sqft room with 1000wt gives u 10000 lumens per sqft...thats identical to the sun...or am i adding wrong?

LMFAO,hope you get a vortex fan are cooltube are both.And by no means can you compare a light bulb to the sun.Most ppl shoot for 50 wpsqft,and i have 2 friends that use a 1kw over there 4x4 tray,and they grow buds the size of 2ltr bottles.In a 10 sqft space and 1kw thats 100 wpsqft and trust me your gonna have heat issues and will need a good way to vent all the heat that the 1kw puts off.

i am so stoked about this new setup...i made my room like a trapeziod..at the top where the str8 wall and angled roof i have 4- 4 by 16 vents that run down the other side of my roof.....ill hve filters for odor control and an additional vent line tied into the roof cooling fan that i can turn on and off as needed....i just need to add my reflective material in it and then its ready for my lights when they come....i have a divider that i can put up...im going to grow my auto flowerr plants in one room and will just have to move my other budding plants into a dark room so they get the 12/12...they will b in there for 8 hrs and then share the 4 hrs of dark with the aks....i think that way i can have a constant yield once i go through a few cycles
