If your gonna grow 100 plants and don't know how much light you need you might wanna do some reading first.
Good Luck

We're here to help. Here's a hint....the 1,000 watt lights at best will give you a 5x5 area with a bit more than 6' penetration. The 600 watt lights will cover about a 4x4 area with about 6' penetration. Are you growing from seed or clone? Dirt or hydro? How big of a space?

You have a lot of studying and reading to do.
Start here:

Figure a budget and expect to exceed it. There is more to it than dirt, seed, and light...there's ventilation, electricity, cooling, maybe soil and nutes, etc. Do more reading. and get back to us. We get "starter questions" all the time. The more background you have, the better your questions and understanding, and the less time is wasted.

Ocean forest can cause burn. Have you ever used it? if not you might want to run an experiment first. What are the dimensions of the trailer? What electrical do you have access to? Geez there are a lot of questions to get out of the way. What are your goals???

FFOF is ok just dont feed anything on top of it for about a month! Might want to gt some
dolomite lime to combat ph issues that come from using ffof.

And to do a 100 plants from seed you will need to fill your hole trailer with lights lol

Raizer is right. Without a lot more infor I really can't say much. I don't have the dimensions available for grow. He's also correct about the amount of light needed from seed...let's say you are going to end up with 5g containers and not scrog...those containers are about 1 foot across plus the plant. How many plants will fit using your dimensions? You need to either set up an elaborate watering system or you will do a lot of moving plants around. How much bud do you need?

If your trailer were 55 feet long and 12 feet wide you can partition it and set up separate veg and flower rooms and have a great perpetual harvest going. I'm not sure I can help you any more than I have........

whole trailer .. lol, i only bought 5 1000 watt light , I'm probably going to have to grow inside and outside. And I've heard electric company really don't care about the bill as long as it's getting paid? is this true.

X5 1000 is fine but if you go above 8000watts you might have issues..!
with the lights you have now, i would germ 100 beans and once you cull
out the males/mutants/weak ones you should settle with 50plants from
seed should be a lot of smoke :)

steal your electric! you kno it makes sence, presuming your a greedy bastard like me you want maximum value, if so, i would split your trailer in to 3 sections, 2 large flowering rooms and a middle area for making your res and for cloning n shit, the 2 flowering rooms should be rotated so that when one goes off the other comes on so you dont melt your electric box and it helps avoid heat issues, youl need another 5 1k lights thoe, 5 for each room with 50 plants in each room, few things to note, make sure no light leaks in to other area hermi'd seedy weed costs u doe, make the switch over point convenient, if ur gunna do a perpetual you gotta make 2 different rezs a bit of a fuka bout imo but ima lazy fuka

yeah advising someone to steal the power they need is really bad advise mrmoores.its because of attitudes like that that weed growers/smokers are treated like criminals.tut tut...

Comparing doesnt stengthen the argument! Steeling power is just that! Growing weed has nothing to
do with steeling! = a thief :(
