Im Definitely Subbing up for this too, Once I get my lighting all up and running Ill be on about 2600 watts although I am planning on doing it differently, instead of one huge crop at a time I am going to do a stage system 3 flowering chambers and a veg and clone chamber and I want to try to get about 2 to 4 plants cropping every two weeks and then hopefully get to 2 to 4 plants a week Once Im better organized

You should get a water tap filter instead of that 1/2 gal pitcher bro. You can get them pretty cheap, like $30 or so and it will clear up that chlorine issue.

I hear what your saying, the flip box is made by powerbox and there made out of california, super simple plug a ballast into it and run x2 lights from one
ballast, the way it work is one light one on 12 hr of the day and the other run on the other 12hr super cool.

Yea I bought one of those but the sink in this house has a weird tip and none of the adaptors fit on it which is just my luck nothing goes smooth for me, but yea I returned it tried another brand same thing and I just rent here so im not about to rip out the sink and put in a new one ya know

600s are the way to go! allow you to have more lights and better saturation.
i cant wait for the upgrade to come to all 600's but i have my kiddos for the summer and is the reason for my lack of interaction on this site and the lack of money too lol but well worth it, so right after summer i should have them up and going (very exited).

family is number one in my book! so do what you got to do and we will understand, switching from 400s to 600 is a night and day difference.

I was thinking high wattage is like 10k + atleast but never the less, u guys got some good stuff going

I help run a 12k + collective but don't take pics because of patients requests (safety). We will be harvestin sour diesel and purple urkle in a week or 2. So I will post harvest pics.
