making a grow room

Hello all, I'm going to be putting together a room. I have room for a 10x10 tent and a budget of 5k. Thinking of doing 4 1000w. I am new but will be working with 2 close friends who are experienced. looking for recommendations of plant #'s, i'm legal up to 99 plants, perpetual?, sog?, just trying to finalize before I begin ordering parts in the next couple weeks. any help is appreciated.

4 1k over 100 plants? how high are you gonna veg? to maximize space and save electricity go with light movers..how high is your cieling? doing soil or hydro..love the idea of perpetual grow..u must own or a associated with a dispensary nice!

thats alot of light for that area in terms of heat issues, ur gonna a need fat ventilation sys. If it were my grow tent i would set up a twelve bucket hydro set up with one main res that has easy access for maintenance. 4-400 watt metal halide for veg and 4 - 600 watt hps for flowering and 4 multi functional ballasts. Ur gonna need twice as much exhaust over the amount of air intake, adjust accordingly for heat control, meaning go up or down in fan speed depending on your temps. no higher than 85F with lights on and no lower than 60F degrees at night. use carbon filter for smell they work really good and wont leave your crib smell'n like a ganja farm. even with the "permission to grow" you will still need to keep a low profile cause if the neighbors start bitchin bout smell the feds will come knockin and haveing that paper in your grow room will at the least bit maybe help out in the trial, hav'n bad smell is big trouble so be careful. Now alot of new grower's "test" their set up with bag seed, shit I did and wished to hell that I didn't, the fact is if you buy a good seed with good genetics then the most likely result will be good plants, if you plant some bullshit then the results will come out bullshit and you will wish you went with the dank instead of the backyard boogie. read post from uncle ben about topping your plants during the veg stage to get 4 main colas. that way you will get about 6-8 ounzes per plant some times more, I find that the technique works great and wish I could shake uncle bens hand for passin the knowledge. Now go young padawon and read and learn the ways of the force, learn to read your plants they will tell you what they need, no two grow rooms are the same so follow the simple guidelines that are posted all over this site, but learn to read your plants. and please for god sakes be patient alot of new growers fry their plants by adding nutes to early, if your goin soil then use a good soil meant for ganja ( add 25% perlite for better aration) and you shouldn't have to use nutes for 3 weeks and when you do introduce nutes start at 1/8 strength and go up as your plants grow. if grow'n dro then I wouldn't use nutes till the middle or end of week two at 1/8 strength and again go up as your plant matures. good luk bro, I hope I could help ya out.
