hi guys, I would like to setup a 8x8 Tint with the following in mind.

I am going after EFIENCENCY, I Dont need the Biggest buds, Just the Sweet Spot before diminishing returns / Waste.
I NEED TO STAY UNDER 1600 Kw a month, light budget 1500 plus or Minus


4x
Bloom Plus LED Grow Light BP4000 400W 5x5ft Coverage Full Spectrum Use with Samsung Diodes Dimmable Plant Grow Lamp for Indoor Plants Seeding Veg and Bloom

Plus a 8x8 Tint. I would like to incorporate Co2.
I have a air conditioner and 2x 4 inch exhaust's alrdy (I am doing SOIL)

IF i Use the above Setup, during Veg would 2x Lights being on Work? or do i go after directly under the Lights for best results.


A good friend of mine with several years under his belt Told me to buy 4x 200W Mars boards because he thinks its a waste of pgne to go higher then that.

So of course I will ask others to get to the RESULT.

If you took the time to help me out, I thank you.

I have some Alibaba sk 4000 480 true draw. highly recommend.

not to rain on your parade but 1500 is not alot at all. let's say you light the 8x8 that's

1920w well say 2100 for the odd fan or 3
are you growing during the summer?
ac is 1100w
purputial? well your gonna want at least a 5x5 for veg. than needs another light
480.
so that's like 3.7kwh

now I also kinda just expanded your grow cause you were just talking about an 8*8 but minimum I couldn't see you lighting that area with less than 4*300w panels (if there are any good enough) for 1200w. now I'm a stoner so I'm fine spending 150 on my power bill for the grow cause that what I'll spend at the dispo and now I'm able to smoke a qp a month+

if your "electric budget" is 1600kw a month that's an easier goal. I probably just misread. dm me and I'll link you my lights.

Hi Monster, The reason im going a bit bigger is because I dont plan to Run during summer,

and Yes i did the math and 1600KW per month will keep me under High Usage. were on low income Pgne package aswell so Trying to not ruin that.

ill DM you, Thank you.

(also ill be using the same tint to veg and flower, for a while ill be vegging to get enough clones, plants ect.)
18 hour Veg so thatll cut down on usage too.

unless im not seeing it right but i cannot send a message youll have to send me a message, im guessing its because im new and need more posts / replies @Monster_of_Au
