Def at least 2 x 600, I would even suggest getting 2 x 600 HPS and 1 600 MH, I run a 2:1 mix and enjoy the results. Let us know what you decide, we always welcome another 600 fan. Oh, and we generally all agree that 600watters are more efficient that its bigger brother the 1k'er, but then even me saying that is openig a can of worms, lol. peace, dst
 
I am just hoping for a nice setup that will last.
Ive also heard 2 1000w's if vented properly will bring great success.

I also want to know if I should just do like 6-10 plants.
Also, should I just buy big healthy clones and bud them once they root?

I need help with my grow..

I was told for a 4'10"x7'8" I should use at least 1 1000w or 2 600w lights.
How many plants should I be able to fit in this?

If it were me I'd do 2 6's, at least. I think some might agree your nearing 3, I don't know for sure. How many plants is a wide open question that depends on a lot. Can you rotate this for height of 7'8"? What is it, a room, tent...?

Its actually a Shappell S4000 Ice shanty :)
I have an attachment that raises the height to 7' if needed.
Ice shanty, as in fishing hut? Apologies if I'm confused?

Edit. Never mind Kyle, I fixed my Google finger and now see what your talking about. That's a pretty cool idea.
 
so is that going to be a nice little budding station?

im a new grower and am accepting all advice.

I reallllly want to know if zero-veg is worth it.

cof thanks, I am a happy man at the moment, life is good. Got some new beans in mind I'm going to look over and hope to place an order tomorrow. After being on here for so long I got pot on the brain most of the time and of course the never ending quest for the perfect plant is such luscious torture. It also doesn't help when you are about to run out and get on here and everywhere you look, bud porn staring you in the face, damn near dripping on you. No it doesn't help at all.



Correct me if I'm wrong here but I think you are trying to make a point, but I'll be dipped in poop if I can figure out what it is?



Life is good and it will get better when you get to hit those new wedges...that is if they work. It is an absolutely gorgeous day today, I should be out there playing, it's seventy four and sunny with a nice breeze. That's right guys it's almost summer here in florida, we just about hit ninety a few times already and we have a few mid to upper eighty days coming up next week. When most of you guys get around to actually enjoying spring, I'll be here in the southeast suffering from the heat and humidity.

Duchie, no offense was taken at all about the what's my line comment. I'll even take it a step further. When I watched that show, it was one of three channels on tv...and they were all black and white. I was surprised you knew the show, that kind of told me you were entering into the relic stage of life. That is the only thing I dislike about the written word in this kind of format, so much gets lost in translation since you can't attach a tone of voice to written words. I would love to be able to hear some of the sarcasm behind some of the comments. Not so much on here, but I am a sarcastic ass to the bone.

I walk into these peoples' house one morning to paint. I hear a little of the conversation going on and immediately 'get' I can fuck with these people. So the first thing I say to the lady is, " are you the crazy lady who lives here everyone is talking about"? I thought she was going to shit herself from laughing. Moments like that make my day.

A strain huntin' I'm a goin'. Later guys. I'll post up my choices after they are made.

Edit. Daggone stoners can never remember anything. cof, I give my plants cal-mag and liquid karma once a week at this point.

And for whoever it was who asked, no these are not eight week strains. The earliest I am thinking ten and maybe thirteen for a couple?
Holy buds batman. I go away for a few days and Heads up is multi quoting. What is the world coming to?

Lot's of great bud shots from everyone... and some nice veg shots too. Props to the 600. I'll update the jungle in a bit. It's insanity.

Duchie, here ya' go my man. Notice the lighter shade of black on the pots, that is what the roots do as they grow into the side walls, it looks like sweat stains from the outside. And here are a couple of nug shots.

And yes, I still have one mh and one hps burning. I switch the plants every week from light to light and my killing fields is in between the two lights getting red and blue light.
HU the sweat stains you are seein on the smart pots is salt build up usually.

Thanks but I am licensed and am going to be purchasing clones to grow with.
The concept is the same.
With clones you'll be ahead of the curve than if you were to grow from seeds with zero veg.
Just thought you might like to see what can be done with minimal vegetative growth.
Peace

Thanks man, Ill check it out.

But if I go about it from clone, wont there potentially be more yield?

If grown properly, yes.
I haven't done any zero-veg grows, but I was amazed at what del66666 is able to do with seeds with nothing but 12/12.
Healthy clones should do a bit better.
If not better, then possibly just less time to mature once flowering starts, so you can get more grows in per year, which will yield you more meds than you might get starting with seeds.
It also keeps the plants small so you can pack them into a small space, or fill out a larger space with more plants to harvest each grow.
And, of course, with clones you definitely have females, where seed grows can be any ratio of male to female depending on the luck of the draw.
