Thanks man. I look at this and then I think, man what I could do with a 1,000WHPS and some real grow space.
For the lights I have, I am doing good, I wish econco would get there lights back in stock, they owe me 2 of them. If not, somebeech told me about a nice 600WHPS, I plan on getting that if the others are not in stock. Then I will be in business!
For now I will take a trip to walmart and get some CFL's to ad in there, I dont have the money for another HPS right now and I can get a extra 300 watts without having to spend much, that will be better, at least til I have a nice 600W
But I have to add, Damn, look how healthy she looks, The AK. She looks so happy and healthy, even the runt looks healthy. They have the perfect green color, with no yellow or any spots at all. Gotta love that because you know they are happy little ladies.

I seen the same one your talking about on e-bay for that same price. Yeah, I am saving for a bigger wattage HPS. Right now I have to work with what I got.
Right now I am working with 400W total, 250WHPS, and 150WCFL. The cab was built at 10 Square Feet, But as the plants grew bigger, the cab was pulled out to make a bigger area, so I am probably at 15. The 250W HPS puts out 270,000 Lumens?, Not sure how much the CFL puts out. 3,000W Psqf would be nice.
I just woke up so I may be off, feel free to correct me. But yeah, I want a nice 600W. Sucks to let good skills go to waste because of not having the equitment.

I know. Hey, feel free to buy one for me somebeech, or give me one of your lights you just got laying around collecting dust. LMAO. Just busting your balls!

How much you pay with it baz?
Everyone wants me to get a 600W. Somebeech is a good guy, He has been on me about it, he see's I have the skills, but not the right equitment.
Look at it this way, This will just a sample...My first time growing for over 4 years. This grow will get me back in the swing of things, then when I get that 600W I can really do something nice. The only thing I am concerned with is space. Because I know the plants are going to be huge with a 600W. I mean look at twisteds or somebeech's big girls. They are fucking huge, so space is my only concern, thats kinda why I got just started with a 150W just to see how big they would be at the end. So look at this grow as like a experiment, so I know what I will have space for ect. And to get back in the grove. I know they wont be as big as I would like, or could get them with proper lighting, but for now, it will have to do!
I thank everyone who has noticed I have skills and has been telling me to get the 600W HPS. Its nice to people to want you to get better lighting because they know you have potential. Thanks for the confiedence! Especially Somebeech

Hey Webber...Thanks for stopping by, have you started germinating yet?
Also for everyone... Bud shots coming tomorrow. Afgan will be at day 18 flowering. My Jerry Berry I kinda lost track of when it started, I have it in my notes, but I believe its 4 days behind the afgan, maybe more, it actually looks way behind the afgan in person, you can see the difference in the Afgan and the Jerry Berry.
I also had to do a bend on the Jerry Berry, it was starting to get to close to the light, I want to keep them in the cab as long as I can. Only one top was bent on the jerry berry, just like the Afgan.

Morning bro, Was already there.
There are so soo soooo many systems, if you have the cash, and can get something nice, you have so many options. How do you want to grow? Gonna go Hydro, Aeropoincs, ect
But if I know more what your looking to do, I can give ya better advice. Now, you plan on building a cab and inside the cab your going to have one of those systems? How come your going stealth now?

I know I can get decent buds with what I have, but I really want like a zip per plant, and I will be lucky to get a half per plant. Its been awhile since I been in the grow scene, and a few people told me I will probably only get a quarter per plant.
See, I would love to have someone that could hand me over a 400W until I can purchase a 600W. That would hold me over until then. For now I am gonna grab some CFL's, until I have the cash to get the big boy.
For now my 250 will have to do! Nice to see ya again, how have you been Mr. West

Aeroponics is a great choice, but not for everyone. I think you will do great with it. Especially since you and your wife are into growing. And the one you posted would be great for a closet.
What about the upstairs grow, you keeping it for you, or getting rid of it? It be cool to have 2, compare the results and whatnot.
I will be growing outdoors in the summer too. Can't wait for that!
