Probably not a good idea in the AG, the roots will be crazy! I would say 4, maybe 5, but that would be pushing it.

Oh, my bad bro, I think you would be fine. It would still be a bit crowded, but I think you could pull it off.

FoxCompany426 · Apr 25, 2009

So I decided that I'm gonna try the 24 hours of darkness before switching to 12/12. Just figured that I would do it and compare. Anyways, they're sleepin' right now, lights are gonna be on at 6am and off at 6pm. Growth is still good, startin' to smell good. Roots look damn strong! And that's about it, Update in a few days. Later!!! :joint:

what gal.is that?i thought u had an AG or BP..Looks big enough but ull need a fuckload more cfls,,or go HID...Im not knocking the cfls in anyway,,youll just need alot of them where as youll just need one HID,but u already got the cfls goin ,so 6 plants id say 3-4 cfls per plant,minimum! Youll have a nice size yield with 6 plants and the correct lighting.

gotsmoke · Apr 25, 2009

yah i have a ag going right now. but im getting that setup here soon too. imma try and grow some ice in that set up. so maybe ill start with just 2-3 plants.

It's really up to you man, it's all on how much you want to pay. The government or DEA or whatever, is not going to be searching through anyone's electric bill unless you give them a reason to. So just make sure you always pay your bill on time, and take your time building up on your electric usage, don't try any sudden jumps in usage. Anyways, I think a 400 or 600W HPS/MH HID with a cool tube would work great for that 6 place setup!

gotsmoke · Apr 25, 2009

whats the HID lighting ? this setup already has the cfls install but fuck it ill have more room to put a few more in the as long as i just stick with 2-3 plants. soooo that means prolly 9-12 cfls if imma grow 3 plants ?

HID just means a high pressure sodium or metal halide setup. Not needed, but a good idea. Definitely will see more quantity and more potency. I am currently growing with CFL's, I have 4 300W equivs pushing 4000 lumens a piece for 2 plants. Try to get the biggest possible light output that you can.

Yeah man, definitely! Sounds like a good start. Never stop researching. The more you know, the easier this will become.
