Few questions from a newbie!

Hi guys,
After months of going through this site, i finally decided to create a membership and thought it would be a good idea to introduce myself
Just to let you guys know im a male who is from Auckland, NZ and my name is Adam.

After looking around a few hydroponics shops, i have found what i think is a good setup, but please give me your ideas as to what you think may work better.

My growtent will be 3mx1.5mx2m (L/W/H) with a gully hydroponic system consisted of 4 gullies each about 2.2m long and with either 8 or 10 holes in each. So 32 or 40 plants all up.
Lighting will be 3 400w hps lights or 2 600w hps lights.
carbon filter is 250x580 with a centrifugal fan.

From what i have read, and been informed my best bet for the largest yeild i can get out of this setup would be to veg until about 1 foot tall then flower them does that sound about right?

Please let me know what you think and should change,

Cheers,

-Adam

Veg for about 4 weeks then go into flower if you have any probs in your journey am sure someone on the site will talk you down, hope it all works out and welcome to the site.

12 inches is the rule of thumb. I veg for a while though, cause I like to start them big. However, I am patient.

cheers for that, does the lighting set up sound like it will be enough for that number of plants?
also how long does it usually take to flower?

-Adam

lights sound good, when you go to flower 12/12 it normaly takes around 8/10 weeks depending on your strain.

sweet,
thanks.
