How Much Can An Outlet Take?

[potlike]

dude that would be great if his space was 2 x 4 but sadly it is 8x4 or 4x8 im high and too lazy to look
regardless it was 32 sq feet and under 2000 lumens per sq foot will make his ladies look like a 68 year old hooker's tits after a suntan

dude a 400 watt in a closed out space in the shed would be great for a 1/2lb crop. a 400w runs 3.3 amps on a normal house outlet and doesn't even really the hydro bill that much at all.

just food for thought.........

1 x 400w hps with say 2x4 feet , theres usually about a half pound right there

thanks........

yeah i get the space issue but take a piece of plywood paint it white and make a smaller space, or hang poly or anything else. make your own space

well i dont want the old ladys titties,say 2 or 3 then?

right?............

7000 lumens x 32 sq feet = 224,000

Go 2 x 1000w = 2 x 145000 lumens = 290000 lumens
290000/32=9062.5 lumens per sq ft = 36c college born girls @ 18 years old

hey there,measure your elec. in AMPS......each electrical device your going to use has an amps rating on it.................also the circuit in your fuse box will have an amp rating as well.if possible try to stay @ 80% of the maximum amps on each circuit....hope this helps......

So its your intent to just grow one crop and then stop, and start again? Or are you going to clone in some other area? Maybe cfl's would work for lighting for those. VV

 

[RASCALONE]

no,idont want to start all over again,so yes i will clone,ive had 0 success with cloneinng so far,but plant was in flower,didnt have dome,needless to say i was anxious to get growing,and fast.results were pitiful.lol.i have 5 babies outside,in flower and doing great,some kush.but now that i got a spot for indoor im taking it slow and waiting and getting everything i need as well as information,the key!!!but yes since i have the cfl's already, i will use them for cloneing.thanks,my mind was not even on that yet,the probly would of went in the kids room to save on the bill.lol....thanks again vicv.
