I think that's his monthly bill. When I have everything up and running, that's about what my monthly hydro bill is with 4k lighting and accessories. While I was shut down, my bills dropped to $250.

You would be surprised how often the meters DONT Work...but heres the catch
If you call them to check it. It wont cost you anything if it is indeed broken
Now if it is working fine. You pay for the call. 250 I think.

Yes same for me 7- 7 is the cheaper time. It sucks that veg has 6 hours of pricey time in it\s 18 hours being on.

You might want to look into 12:1 or glr for veg and save some $$

18 hrs light = 18 hrs growth.
12 + 1 = 13 hrs growth.
Greenhouse flower growers interrupt night during winter to create false long days.

Our rates on Ontario are getting out of hand, my bill has gone up $100/month with no changes in the last year. it's still reasonable for me, 1QP per month covers all my costs but damn their "add-ons" (delivery et al) are more than the actual usage bill.
I hate that bitch Wynne.

I just run my flower room 7:00 pm to 7:30 am (600w) and 20/4 for veg/clones (320w) but all of my lighting is LED or CMH, both are about as efficient as it gets right now so my gpw is always good.
