New grow plan, stadium grow, using 5-7 1k hps

Hey everyone, I have a few questions about the design i am going to use.

First off I have seen the stadium grow and it seems to be the quickest easiest way to maximize yield by utilizing 360 degrees of the light.

I plan on using 5-7 maybe 8 1k w HPS for the plants, the number of flowering plants that i will have at one time will be no greater than 180, number of total plants will be no more than 216.

I am looking to yield about 12-17lbs of dried bud by using 5-8 (highend of that number) worth of 1000w HPS.

the strains i will grow will be indica dominant, will be vegged for no more than 2 weeks and put immediately into flower, I will train the plants with ties and sticks if necessary.

I am also considering using co2, getting a tank and regulator and also a nice big carbon filter.

Are my expectations of yeild and plant number along with the number of lights i want to use realistic? Or am I expecting too much? I will use more than 8 1k hps IF NECESSARY, but i'd like to keep it under that number

This will also be a perpetual harvest with another room with a good amount of clones rooting while the main batch is nearing harvest.

As for strains I have decided upon

GDP
Hindu Kush
white widow
purple urkle
g13

would these strains work well for a stadium grow? if not can anyone recomend me some good high yeilding high potency strains that work well with stadium grow.


Also if there is a better style of growing than stadium, that uses the same or less amount of light and can yeild more i'd like to see it aswell.

Please leave some input!!! thanks everyone!!

That all sounds well. I'm more outdoor so I can't speak for ur yield sorry but I just want to point out that purple urkel will need to be in hydro to keep up. They are agonizingly slow veggers. In hydro I'm seiin 2 inches a day sometimes but in soil they tend to be frustratingly slow as well its a fairly small yielder. On a positive note IMO they're a connesours dream they have smaller yields of sticky stanky and tasty nugs potent to boot. Just a thought. Wish I could be more help
