    Grow Tower... You guys think this will work?

    Everything looks good except for the 5k in lights. 5k would fry any living thing as your design has only a 6" opening at the top. 4 600's is all I would put in there, MAX. I would also put the reservoir at the bottom, and have all your tubes use gravity to empty themselves into that reservoir.

    I bit off more than i can chew

    Put back the reflector, and bend the plant. That way more light gets to the rest of the plant.

    How do you rate this complete system?

    I see nothing wrong with the system besides the price. HTgsupply.com and you could make your own system with everything ordered from them for closer to half that price.

    reading alot lately now its time to post

    If you can afford it, id also shell out a few bucks for seeds. And yes, common sense will tell you to first try bagseed, cuz you will mess things up along the way. BUT...With the help of the people on here, your odds of getting SOME bud at the end of your first grow are pretty good. SO...

    reading alot lately now its time to post

    Welcome. Once on my first grow, someone told me: Get an aircooled 600w setup, you will thank me later. So a quarter lb later, I thanked em. I'd suggest an aircooled 600w setup. Preferably a used one from craigslist or a new one from htgsupply.com <<---300 bucks for an aircooled 600 with...

    Walking in the woods and found a suprise

    Well, if you leave them there, they could grow out to 8' monsters, if you bring them inside, most likely they will be dead within a week. I would leave em there, and in 4 months, take a bud off the tree and leave the rest for whomever planted the seeds.

    HPS lighting help?????

    You dont have to mount in on a wall. A hook from the ceiling and some metal chain, and you could adjust to any height u want.

    Cant keep my eyes off her at night

    The marine in me says go get some night vision goggles from ebay. The realist in me says get a green light bulb, preferably a low wattage one. The optimist gardner in me says switch the light hours.

    yeild amounts

    unless you mean 2 METERS by 2 METERS, than you should be fine if you aircool the lights.

    yeild amounts

    a 2x2 is more suited for a 150w bulb, not 1200w of juice. If you put 2 600w in a 2x2x2 your box will be as hot as the sun. Can you get 400g from one plant? Yes. One plant per 600w. Big Bud, Chronic all yield nice. Hell, any plant will yield nice if you have one of em under a 600.

    Wanna grow 10lbs every 8 weeks...

    KY jelly?!? Muscle Relaxers?!?! Yeah, avoid all that. Move to Maine. Where 99 plants is still a misdemeanor :)

    Wanna grow 10lbs every 8 weeks...

    Wouldn't want to go out like Tony Montana??? Id much rather got shot in the back with a 12 gauge as opposed to rotting in jail for having 20.001 grams of a plant.

    this is gonna sound lazy

    htgsupply.com I would spend a few more bucks and go with a digital 600.

    Portable A/C Question

    My portable ac unit takes about 4 gallons of water out of the air per day. It drops the humidity, good if you live in a humid place.
