Hey Fam,

I’m switching to indoor grow bc my Guerrilla attempt was washed away by flash flooding (yea I was pissed). Found a nice secret area and I’m going to build out the rooms there. I will be growing 30-40 plants and I want the best yield they will produce indoors. I stitched my own 10gal fab pots, making my own soil but haven’t determined lighting yet until I figure my room dimensions. How big should room be and I’m thinking of dividing into 2 rooms.
Thanks

"10 gallon pots and 30 - 40 plants ?"
Are you using a nuclear power plant to light it?

Lmao so reduce the number of plants or pot size!? Just want a nice yield every 3 months so 15 sounds more realistic? I’m a over enthusiastic noob

How many OZ would yo like to pull every 3 months ?
How much room do you have ?
What kind of budget are you working with.
Fancy rooms can add up very fast.

Shit, just building the room (done right can add up)

It really depends on your goals.
You could harvest a 1/4 pre week, or change the design n lights etc n pull 2-3p ev 4-6 weeks and everything in between.

how do you get a qp a week!? You mean in growth or something? But I think that sounds good I may take your route so I will make pots smaller. How long do you veg before cutting back on light

As long as I produce 40os/ 3mnth I’m happy, whatever setup can sustain that easily I will pursue

It's just an average for me if I were to go with the same strain over and over it could be dialed in
If I run GG#4 it finishes in 67 days and my Kushs take closer to 90
Not looking for more I have enough for my clientele

Not sure on dimensions yet idk how to calculate that. But I’m getting a few 2x4s to make a square structure and fill in with tech panels

No idea that’s the process I’m in now trying to figure this indoor deal. But with those number I will follow the recipe to the T I can build the room. For ventilation I was going to use 2 small fans one blowing out and one drawing outside air. Didn’t think everything else was necessary

What about insulation? Vapor barrier,
Sound? Doors?
Have you any idea on how many watts you want to pull?
LEDs? HID

Sound is no issue and doors I can handle, building the structure is no problem just don’t know dimensions think I will run what you guys have

What kind of experience do you have growing outdoors?
If you want to hit numbers like me , you need DE1000s and CO2 and a big mini split big Dehumitifer, lots of fans , timers , controllors etc.

Outdoor I just made soil and let nature do the rest. My technical skills are zero, got the knowledge and concepts down but my terminology sucks. Still researching now.
