Well at least you could get it off the floor and hung on the ceiling .
Then she could vacuum up before you bring the dirt in , or water.
pick your poison and Enjoy

Ya I hear ya. It's just a big light and currently I don't exactly have the room for it to just hang out somewhere. I'll likely have to set it up and then take it apart until the current run is finished (about 2nd week in March). Then it's clean and disinfecting the tent and in she goes.
The basement is my 'man zone' as she calls it. Fishing shit, weed shit, and tools. Plus my fridges and freezers that are filled up with weed scraps, roe and whatever else. Lol

Yes we must have are place. Mine is the separate garage.

That light should be killer .

Thought you were stuffing in a 5x5 like the 6500 I have in mine. If so it’s a tight sqeeze but your coverage will be great.

Good luck with it.

Yea it'll be in my 5x5. I'm hoping I'll be able to run later into the warm season maybe get an extra run in before the summertime shutdown.
ACS plus grow tents running = mega bills. Not that I care about that but if I've already got lbs from the winter runs there's no need to run in the summer. Plus I kinda use the heat the keep my viranda warm in the winter. That's where I vent into.

Dang, I had a prob with mine too. Two seeds didn't make it but I think it was my own fault. Although my buddy got breakfast og and none popped. He's replacing them though.
I used to do 16 in 5x5. Lol. Figured I'd go down to 12 make things easier for me.
I have low ceilings in basement so it's easier for me to run more plants and veg less. Plus vegging is just wasting money imo. Running 18hrs brings the cost per gram up everyday it's running. Again not that it matters much about the cost to me but I like to be efficient. I never set timelines for veg, I'll judge the plants growth if I haven't flowered it before then I'll flip when I believe I'm in the zone.
This is my current run now. 12 plants. 5x5. It's just how I've done it for many moons so I'm kinda dialed in per say. Although I do tend to switch things up each run a wee bit. Eg blumats, etc. I let these gals get a wee bit too tall but I was waiting for the other slower veggers to catch up a bit.

Damn thats a full tent!! I just went from 4 plants to 6 plants in the 5x5 and didn't have a lot of room left. Vegged for about 2 months though. Well done with getting 16 in there!! I get that with being efficient. Bought a new light so I could lower the watts during veg :P Not about the money per say, definitely about trying to be efficient but that takes a lot of experience for sure. Excited to see how this one turns out for you

It’s air in the summer and heat in the winter.

I need the therapy all year long.

Ya no central AC in here yet, and I'm ripping out walls and re insulating room by room. Then new furnace and central AC to come this year hopefully. Once that's all done I'll be golden all year long. Until then I need to pump out what I need when the weather's cool, and shut down the big room once temps are unmanageable. I'm still running the mom tent through summer with a few autoflowers in there to keep me busy.

Ya 2 month veg just hurts my feelings. Lol. I can't do it.
I'll still pull around 3 lbs I'm hoping. Got about 2.89 or something like that with 16 plants on a mega short veg so I'm thinking I should be around the same with this run, then we will see what I get with the fce 8000. Granted I knew what to expect with this run considering I've run each of these strains before and next will be all new untested genetics

Can't complain about a 3 lb haul :p .. I wanted to veg some for 2 months and some for 1 month to see the difference in the weight. Doubt I'll veg that long again unless the plant needs it (probably would be a sign of stunted growth though). 16 plants with 3 lbs in a 5x5 with short veg sounds efficient to me!!

Ya for me it works much better. In the same time you'll flower your 1 run with 6 plants I'll have all almost 2 full runs with 24 plants harvested anywhere from 5-6lbs ish. Lets me run a few diff strains too so I keep things fresh. Hate smoking the same thing over and over. Lotta times I'll crave a certain strain one day and another the next. Nice to have some variety. Plus some are good for nausea and others good for helping me sleep etc etc

100% with you on that!! Bought a dry tent on its own so I can run multiple strains and not worry about much. You're right, vegging longer doesn't always help with efficiency. I averaged 150 dry with 1 month veg. difference was around 20ish grams with the extra month BUT they weren't clones so really hard to tell for sure.
