Stoner paranoia?

Guess I just come on here and get jealous when see all big boys do it. But guess stick to what you got. I got 0.5 g per watt last grow with lots of brushing up on my skills taking place off 2 autos and 2 fems.
Bigger lights just means you can have more plants, check out the 250w Club and help thread, then you'll feel shit for not being able to produce as well as a lower watt light lol
It is amazing what you can do once you have a dialed in setup.

have you tried ScrOG? Best technique ever :D maximizes yield in small spaces like tents and small cabs!

Tent I'm now looking at after measuring is 0.60x0.60x1.20m with my 400w light. Now space mum wanted me to put it right next to a window and was worried pumping hot out straight of it so re located it in the room. Can just about get 4 x 10litre pots that I use in that tent so should keep it all very compact. Will be tight but cut undergrowth and should be fine right?

Specs on the 5" fan kit is this;


  • MixFlo MF-125 2-speed mixed flow high performance fan.
  • BEAB Approved.
  • 125mm 5" spigots to fit filter and duct.
  • A HUGE 310 m3/hour airflow (240 m3/hour on low).
  • 2 Year continual usage warrenty.
  • 2-speed selector (310/240 m3/hour).
  • 25 dB(A) sound level at 3m distance.
  • Moulded mounted bracket.
  • Powerlead & UK plug supplied
​

Now don't know if to downgrade or keep this fan and test out lower setting?

hmm, if I had the money I'd go with the bigger one plus that's a pretty decent warranty and the speed controller is a good idea.

With a 400w you wouldn't really even need to cut much undergrowth they have really good penetration, just keep it 'tidy' under there for airflow more than anything. And don't forget a standing fan or summin just to blow over/between them!

Other than that sounds like your sorted!

Yeah the tent bloody small unfortunately so think can't have a stand up one but a clip on one will have to do I feel.
Now to get the money. *sigh*.

0.6 sq seems small for 4 plants but should be ok. In theory. Even if all bush up. 2 of plants will be 4 weeks apart to go perpetual.

O I also cut a clone from my re veg northern lights and stuck in. All droopy ATM but fingers crossed!

i think you'll be alright for 4 plants I'm running 4 plants in Wx60cm Dx38cm and not worried :) Just keep the clone very humid and medium moist it should be fine!

I keep a 1200W going and therez always 'coptorz buzzing around, but I seriously doubt they were studying your house... It'd take alot more than a 400 watter to set off any alerts... I'd be willing to bet one's water heater puts off a greater heat sig than a 400 watt lamp and/or ballast does... But itz good to have that paranoia, and to always stay on full-alert...
