Hello,
I have so many questions

I have A 5x5 Gorilla Grow Tent With 2’ Extension

For Lights I have many and I know I can’t use them all. Looking for combination suggestion.

I have both a 1000 hps (Phantom II)and 400 hps (Solis Tek)

I also have the following LED also

California light works

Solar Extreme 500 (400 watts) and also there older 440 solar storm (350 watts at max setting.)which has UVB

Viparspectra Par 1200 dimmable (545 Watts) and there Par 700 (326 Watts)

And also a

Kind L600 (320 Watts)


For Fans I have a S600 6” Vortex (340 CFM) I know I need more depending on lighting and not afraid to bucks up.
buildings in the woods. Away from any visitors so there’s no carbon filter.

I am trying a few different containers

Ac Infinity 7 and 5 gallon fabric pots
max yield air pots 7-5 equivalent

Only have 30 amp cord running a long way. 250 Feet Its 8/3 cord though.
Then 50 foot split. With 2 …….10/3 cords.

Also Have a AutoPilot 14.5A Master Digital Timer Environmental Control System

,Humidifier and Dehumidifier and circulation fans

Biggest question is 30 amps going to cover all the electrical draw at that distance and which combo of lights etc.

That's enough for a few lights to run for sure. I'm not sure about cooling tho. How is the temperature out there? You running water pumps? Heater? Humidifiers? Fans? I would want atleast 60 amps personally.

The building it’s in is always cool and I’m in the far north so I’ll have a natural cool intake
I’ll be doing a 18/6 with most at night, I’m hoping it will even Out and only have to really exhaust a portion of the time.
for the lights I’m thinking the 2 California lights which equal 750 watts and also a 250 or 400 hps using the soli tek dimmable ballast.
doing soil in the containers ( using rain water run off.)
Fans are low wattage and I do have a nice air cooled vertical reflector

The lights work out to about 9.5 amps total
I have to finish adding up the amperage of the other stuff.

I'm basically a autoflower rookie. I've grown a total of 3, all outside.
I know autos are pretty temperamental.

I have the following soil.
Fox Farm
Light warrior
Happy Frog
Ocean/Forest
And thinking about Strawberry Field
I also have Plenty of perlite.

I have Lotus Pro Fertilizers

Any thoughts on mixes of above that has worked for you in the Past?

I always buy quality genetics,

I'm actually doing artwork for a seed bank. So genetics is not a problem.

Here's some other questions?
How far away from the lights to start my autoflower seeds, how would you guys start them?
What's the most light would you throw at them. Also the California Solar Storm has UVB
Which I know very little about,I here lots of different opinions,when it should be used.

I have grown in the past
I've grown outside for years and always use jiffy cups, then put them into fabric bags.
I figured that was the best way not to shock them.

I'm thinking 9 autoflower in 5 or 7 gallon Fabric Pots or Plastic Air Pots with 15" plastic trays under the bags or pots

Fast buds Strawberry Pie 1
Fast Buds Pineapple Express 1
Advanced Seeds Amnesia Haze 1
Seed Stockers White Widow 3
Seed Stockers Sherbet 3

Any Imput would be welcomed.
