Wat would you do in a 5X5 Tent

I plan on doing a grow in a 5x5 Gorilla Tent.

I am obvious looking to produce between 2.5-3p every run with 3 weeks veg

Here are my thoughts:

Ballasts: 2 Gativa 1000's in 8" blockbuster hoods
System: 4 bucket UCDWC/hybrid flooming system( https://www.rollitup.org/dwc-bubbleponics/497270-how-rdwc-ucdwc-diy-advanced.html)
Nutes: Botanicare pure blend
Strain: Heath V3

What would you do

have you done RDWC before? and what strain are u planning to run? and are u planning on using both 1000s?

i have a 4x4 w/ a 600w hps in it - i'd imagine a single 1000w would do perfect in a 5x5 - using (2) 1000w would produce quite a bit of heat - but if heat & electricity cost are no an issue - use both!

2x600W or 3x400 would be great for 5x5.

1x1000W is slightly low.

Yes I was planning both 1000's.

I like the gorilla 5x5. I am going to stick to a basic strain the yeild well and is not stinky, so probably a heavy yeilding kush

if you are going to use both 1000s in a 5x5 you are almost certain to get temperature and humidity issues. So you will need EXCELLENT ventilation

I like what churchhaze suggested: (3) 400W HPS - except if possible - done over a 4'x8' - BUT if you already have the 5x5 and the (2) 1000W HPS - i suggest sticking to it but heavily investing in: 6"-8" Inline Duct Fans w/ Silencer AND! Carbon Filter

and with that in mind - why are you striving for a 'not stinky' strain? from my limited experience.. if u're going to shell out (assuming ure from the US) - $500-600 on a Gorilla Tent, presumably $400-500 on lights, and you WILL end up having to spend another $400-500 on proper ventilation - and that goes without adding your monthly electricity bill and possibly CO2 fills (not including the CO2 setup itself) - basically my point is the following: If you are going to end up spending over $1000 easily - why not grow something worth your time and money? just my opinion - i know everyone has different circumstances surrounding their grow so im definitely not opposed to your 'non-stink' strain - i just think if you are going to go for non-stink - you can probably get away with using just 1 light and probalby buyin a much cheaper tent

I have a non stinky kushberry thats yield more than any plant i have seen
