Hi, I am a newbie but, A couple of years back I had a plant in the cuboard and a growlux 150watt light on it... It grew to around 3-4 feet in about 2 1/2 months 24/7. Then I switched the cycle to induce blooming... anyhow I got sick of waiting and a bit paranoid about the smell as i was living in a 40 unit building.... I ripped it out of the soil (fert'd with fish emulsion) and dried it in the griller, just when it was getting the first nice tips forming... well what a dissappointment that was!!! I didn't even get stoned of the shit!!!! What I was wondering was... is this a common scenario with a hydro/light setup?? If you've ever had sumthin like this happen plz let me…

thought it'd be good to look at how much it actually costs to grow your own the main cost is electricity I think. assuming you're paying an average of 15c per kWhour, multiply your wattage by .00015 to work out the cost per hour of running your light. eg a 400watter would cost 6c per hour. water would be bugger all, assume thats free. This is my estimate for my little setup: I run two 430Watters, so my cost would be 2 x 430 x 18 x 7 x .00015 = $16/week as for the other stuff, I reckon my cabinets/fans/timers/pots etc would all be worth $500. Replace on average every 3 years thats works out to say $5/week. Nutes & mediums & sundries, say $50 per grow - $…
