OK, 6 plants keeping them at 3 to 4 feet how much light should i give them? is a 1000 worth it? the higher bill ? i know rule of thumb is 100w per plant but this will be my first indoor setup and would love your feedback Thank's.

for a 10 x 10 I would go for the 1000 watter,for the money you'll spend in the extra elec.,the benefits of harvesting a 1000 watt grow in a room that size are too much to overlook when deciding.Personally am building a 10x10x8 with a growzilla hood throwing 2 1000 watters at em,so it should be interesting for the both of us.....;)

Indeed.If I've done all the math correctly,I should get 15000 lumens per square foot from the lamps and hood,which I will dedicate a 480 cfm fan for the cooling,we've tested at the grow room I work at and that mf is bright.6 plants(MxA)each yielded 280+ gr dry,10 wks 12/12.Thats when I knew...
