I can go for his royal dudeness, seeing as I'm not into the whole brevity thing :mrgreen:

El duderino- do you have enough space to take the 1000 out of the closet and set aside a 4 x 4 area in a room?

You could double your harvest with more plants and more square feet.

I have a couple pics of some single cola plants in my "previous experience" album, the links in my sig, the cover pic is one, and there are more in the album.:bigjoint:

If you want some advice on how I did it, you can pm me, or start a thread, and if I see it I'll reply, or pm me a link to it.:blsmoke:

Oh, I forgot to read his demensions. Damn yeah. I'd say if your stuck on those demensions go with the T5. if you can add a couple feet in height, and have a few bucks, do the HPS. The HPS bulb itself can be as big as you can cool down. Check out a cool tube. They are great for people that want high intensity with not much space. There's even a Do it yourself guide on here to make one.

No unfortunately. Id rather do a perpetual harvest, but all my other closets and rooms aren't suited for it. I rarely have people over, but when I do it would get hard to explain. Also, my state has a 3 year mandatory minimum sentence on anything over 25 plants. So I can't really do more plants either. My wife and I are debating whether to move to Wyoming. Any amount sale or cultivation there is a class d misdemenor with a maximum 6 months and a 1000 dollar fine.

Yeah, I'd love some help! I'm actually doing a whole thread experiment on this grow. When I was looking up doing single cola plants I couldn't find much. So I figured I'd make a good resource for people intersted. I did these 12/12 from seed becuase that's what the thread I joined was about. Here's a link. I got lots of pics.
