Independence I disagree. Splitting cable television is definitely stealing, as you don't pay per channel watched. It is GENERALLY one price for as many televisions are hooked up to it.

Electricity is charged per watt. So it is more like asking your neighbour to let you eat from his fridge for a couple months. Someone pays, just not you.

Although I will give you that situation with the extension cord sounds either fabricated or a half-truth. Who asks to do that, and who says yes...weird.

2 1kw lamps will defo keep me up at night....no one will no about this grow except me, my partner and all of you... im sure a dramatic change in electricity usage attracts attention tho no? Im located in UK btw where houses are generally smaller and closer together... but the growroom will be in an apartment block. Wish i was an electrician so i could change the output readings and have all the lights i wanted!

i can tell you that where i live fpl runs it, if u steal yes they can trace to your house, as long as your bill isnt over 450 a month here they wont even look, if its a lil higher even, but my friend at fpl said that they do look around when u hit 550$ for 3 months strait, but all they do is a stress test on your line, say 10 houses are on it they see if ur leeching or have a bunch of backfeed resistance ( caused by tampering in the lines or over rating usage per house, he said that they have yet to call the police in 3 years hes been there except for dicks that didnt hide their exhaust and a another dick wanted to be a hero and call the cops


either way as stated pay ur billl!!!!

Krafty - Attitude is a reliable vendor with great strains, so are Hemp Depot (CA) and Seed Boutique (UK). If you're in the UK, I'd seriously consider Seed Boutique

- 9ft x 9ft area - neither three 400w lamps nor two 600's will cover that space adequately. You're gonna need at least four 1kw lamps...

400w covers 3x3ft -- for 9x9ft -> nine 400w lamps. 9 x 50,000 lumens = 450,000 lumens & 3600 watts consumption

600w covers 3.5x3.5ft -- for 9x9ft -> six 600w lamps. 6 x 90,000lumens = 540,000 lumens & 3600 watts consumption

1kw covers 4x4ft -- for 9x9ft -> four to five 1kw lamps. 4 x 140,000 = 560,000 lumens & 4000 watts consumption

600w lamps still provide the most bang for the buck, ya just need 3 times as many as ya thought.


Ok, so lets say if i go with 7 x 7ft what would be more suited; if I go with 2 600w lights, or stretch it to 8 x 8ft and use 2 1kw lights - would 2 1kw lights not be too hot for a whole flowering cycle???

Just need to get all the equipment and soil now and we pretty much ready to go!! Can't waaaait rastatokehappydancerastatoke

solve ventilation first

or you will slaughter a crop, burn money, increase frustration, waste time and have to start over 6 months from now

We will get 2 or 3 fans and a carbon filter that will ventilate it enough surely... maybe a humidifier aswell. Do u reckon a little air purifier is worth getting aswell?

circ fans or exhaust fans?

1ks put out a lot of heat--way more than 600s do--unless you have major A/C cooling in the house, you'll want to figure out of to exhaust the hot air...

air purifier? nah--the carbon system will do fine

for my part, I'm running a small scene with 300w T-5 in a room adjacent to a 600x2 flower room--air pulls through the veg room from a duct in a garage bay, then into the flower room through a bafle that is only open during the light period--through a pair of sealed hoods and then to waste up a chimney--no need for scrubbing or cooling or even recirc--but if I went to 2x1k, I guarantee that I'd need to increase the inline fan from 6" to 10" and up the horses--1ks are that much hotter in a small space...

better to run cooler than expected than hotter than expected

Sounds like a nifty lil setup u got there George... how big are both ur rooms?

We have decided to go for 3 600w lamps and a 400w for mother room so we dont over do it with the 1kws.

Would altering light intensity and postions of lights during flowering stress the plants or affect them in any bad ways??
