Greatest yield grow room

I have 32 plants under 2 600watt bulbs.....I have gotten over a pound a light, which you should get, using CO2. Basically it works out to an oz a plant. 16 plants per 4x4 with that light.works for me except this grow ive been getting high humidity lvls due to some bullshit I have to fix.

Also find a strain that has a high yield, another important factor in yield amounts
thanks for that info... sounds like a nice setup.. you think if you had a 1k it would do the same job ?? and im guessing your running indica strains to be running all those plants in one spot ? and is that a soil or hydroponic set up ??

FloJo has a nice vertical setup using 2400 watts i beleive (4) 600w hps and some hygroton hydroponics...

raiderman always has (2) 600w separate flowering chamber grow rooms using a soil-less medium if you're looking for flat technique.

(Both have journals.)

and, ya, i'd say a lb. per 600w is very good. ur doing alright as long as you get that much under a 1000w, with 2 lbs. considered dialed-in.

If you dont know what "elbows" are, I am not sure how you are going to get rid of "pounds" of MJ...
Not everyone is hip to slang bud. I was moving pounds long before I heard the term 'elbows' -- Remember, not everyone here watches MTV, or listens to Lil Wayne. ;) :roll:

Well actually the 2 600watts cover the area better due to the 2 point sources, they are less in electricity and emit way less heat so i can get super close to the plants (1 foot) its ideal for my room. Yes its a pure NL strain, its a SOG set up on 2 4x4 trays. And hydro all the wayy ;-)

Thanks alot gambler, but im trying to perfect a soil operation first, before i jump in to hydroponics... i know it would be better to start of hydroponics if i was thinking in such a manner.. but im also trying to conserve on my electricity also and hydropoincs would jus add to the problem at this point..:wall:

Elbows is actually a very old vernacular. My pops used to call pounds elbows. I guess you could say it's slang, I consider it more of an abbreviation. Kinda like LBS for pounds, kinda sounds like elbow ya know.

elbows and pounds takes the exact same amount of effort to type, pounds takes less effort to say... i'll stick to english if ya get what i mean ;)

vert is not worth it for personal grows in my oppion
just got done whith one net me 2.2 elbows (LOL)
1 lb per 600 is not that far off

i put 6-10 depending on size but find 16 to be best but still do 6-10 to keep # down
i pull atleast 1 lb each 600 every grow i have every done in cludeding my first

cheak out this thred and relize heath is one of the greats but see what 2-3 600 can do.then estmate you can do half of what he does lol

on post 13 he has pics of a 2 light setup where he pulled 4 elbows whitch is 1 more then the best 2 lightgrow i ever had and damm near double my avg and i have been growing a good # of years




and to who ever makes a post like this

For veg: 1 1000 HPS, 2 x 400 MH, and sometimes an aditional 400 MH on cool days.
Flower: 1 1000 HPS, 2 x 400 MH

do not listen to them
veg uder a 400 mh at most unless you have 7-8k of flowerthen you may need 2 400


plan tp spend lowside 2 grand on a killer set up

best to stick to your 600s you have some panda film and a carbon filter for a couple grows then look to go big

I would take their advice of starting small and increasing your operation according to the amount of knowledge gained. Kinda like building houses evenly on property in the game Monopoly

I totally agree my man. I guess for those who wanted to speak more discreetly about a transaction or whatever, maybe on the phone or in a public meeting place. Who knows:-P. Just trying to clarify ya dig. But I feel ya.

thanks for the useful information... what kinda of strains are you running.. and if i were to blow 2k on a nice set up what would i need exactly ?? is there any threads on how to build a room from the ground up from material- to finish ?? something not too far fetched just simple..

also boston are you running a vert ?? or just a flat grow ?? i would figure a vert would be the best suggestion due to the easy temperatures you can maintain
