I'm all about the quality and could not care less (that's just me) about grams / watt. I grow as a hobby for my own consumption. If I was looking at this as a commercial enterprise, then I would look at this differently. So for me a 600W is great, and I'd go that route again.

By enclosing hood you mean a cool tube? If so, yes. I will use a lumaket ballast 600w, a digilux hps 600w with a cooltube and a 8' inline fan..

My set-up will be Ebb & Flow SOG with about 15-20 plants with no veg time. Will be working with AK 47 from serious seeds and Canna Nuts.


What do you think? Can I get a gr per W or a oz per plant? :confused:

That sounds good, but a 3x3 space would be awesome. you will find yourself cramped.

I grow soil, but I wouldn't expect much from any plant with no veg.

Thanks, GM :-)

I wish I was able to share it with you all.

Load some sticky bowls to get the stomach rumbling, then have at it!

my wife is a baker (and a Medical Professional) she makes me killer shit every week, so I feel I'm not missing out too much.

But she's working this week so I'm a single father for a week, the best I do is some killer french toast and waffles.

Love me some waffles!

My dad sent me some dried sourdough starter and one of his old starter pots, so I'm going to finally get that going.
Had a problem for a while with our oven and it made baking bread stuffs impossible.
This was the first bread item I've tried since getting it fixed, so am happy to see usable bread coming out of the oven.
That sourdough starter can be used for bread, pancakes and waffles, so am stoked.

I'm a baking hack, so yeah, your wife's baking would blow away my paltry attempts.
I've got a looong ways to go.
But I have fun with it. :-)

I just got another starter in the mail yesterday for my wife, I fed it last night and still feeding it today. She makes some killer bread.

Awesome!
Home made bread is the way to go!
Will be so glad not to have to buy it off a store shelf again.
We've moved 7 times in 12 years, and figuring out each oven, or getting it fixed, always seems to happen right before we move to another place.
We've vowed not to move again until it's back into a house, so maybe there is a house in our future...
We're working on it, so who knows what doors will open.

Me moved almost every year for 5 years, we got a killer price on a foreclosure and used my VA loan so we got pretty lucky. The house was pretty tore up (as many foreclosures are) so we had to get a new oven and fridge. My wife was stoked so we got the one she wanted. Now she wants me to get her a double oven too.

A bread starter. Like a poolish? Lacto+yeast combo? I'm not much of a baker, but I love all things bacterial. I make yogurt, buttermilk, Kefir, etc. This is what drives me to natural organic soil.

Double oven would be sweet!
Would make cooking meals SO much easier.
The next place we get we're going to splurge on appliances (over time).
First up will be over-sized front load washer & dryer.
Then kitchen upgrades as needed.
The wife doesn't cook much, and would rather have the washer & dryer first.
But I love to cook.

Here's my breakfast.
It turned out perfect!
Almost orgasmically good with every bite...

Nope.
Alaskan sourdough (just sourdouigh, really).
Just wild yeasts, fed with some flour, sugar & water.

Super fast & reliable way to start up a batch of tasty dough, or batter.

Going to make some sourdough Challah as soon as I get my starter up & running.
Among a dozen or more other breads. ;-)

That's poolish. Yeast + lacto B . That's where the sour comes from

Ah!
I am ignorant of that part of it.
My dad recently sent me all of his sourdough books (recipe books and history books) and I've glanced through them but I have yet to read through them.
Have been busy with everything else, and with no usable oven I figured I'd wait before cracking open the covers for in depth reading.
But I guess I need to set aside some time for it.

It used to be that all wild collected yeast also had wild collected Lacto-B. You couldn't collect one without the other. And that's fine as the lacto is protective and is plays well with yeast. So ever since man started using wild yeast to leaven bread, we all ate the lactoB also. Only during the industrialization of our food did pure yeast start showing up in stores. We got rid of the evil germ Lacto-B in our baking. And now we have gluten-intolerant people.

It is claimed that gluten-sensitive people are much less reactive to gluten when the Lacto-B was part of the proofing process. I think there's merit to that.

Definitely going to have to read the books he sent me before I activate the starter to get some mother dough going.

And, man, that would suck to be gluten-intolerant!
