Amish please explain this strategy better. I'm afraid you may be into something and I don't want to miss out.
ok it is fairly simple ....if i can come up with it
with timing on 20/4 in flower 30 days is really 50 days in photos (12/12) .........now the fact that i can keep all the plants in the same area (they light both lights blue and red for whole grow just shorter distances between nodes i have notice
ok most autos are 70 to 110days (maximum 110days ) .....photo plants u need atleast 4-6 weeks of veggie then 2 times as long as u vegged in flowering (minimal 90 days 110) and that is a small photo
ok the money breakdown
cost of the seed...9 to 15 bucks per plant
cost of the soil .....15 to 20 bucks per plant
cost of the feed.....2.50 to 3 bucks (my feeds) per plant 40 for go box kit (12-14 plants) and fox farms powders 70 bucks (30-50 plants)plus other stackers i try out
cost of the power at 0.11 kw 20 hour on a 1000w 2.20 a day ( now u can divide that by 4 plants for a 5x5 area) 55 cents a day 73 days would be 42.9 bucks 100 days 55 bucks
cost of extra power .....depends on your room and u divide that by the number of plants
cost of propane 60 bucks for the tank but refills are 20 buck exchange .....my area tank should be 47 days (this is my next step ) ...but again this is whole room so divide by number of plants
now the yield is up to your skills i can max out the smaller strains u know 4 oz larger ones i gotten up to 10 oz in soil normally do 7-8
my method of keeping everything even and fair
3 times the cost of the plant is my price (when i have a shop it will be about same price with taxes)
1 times to recover what spent
2 times to double up for next grow
3 times for my time effort and chance of doing life (currently not 100% legal just defense in court if can prove have medical need )
so i charge 3 times what it cost to grow and round the number off for 20 bills
hydro is cheaper it about 70 bucks due to the fact u can use water .........amounts are higher too
