$2000 1000W budget. Help needed.

[smokditup]

So I have a budget of $2000. For a 1000W light setup. Im not going with clones I am going with feminised seeds. Mostly SUPER auto flowers and Sensi's Super skunk. Id like ten plants going at once and I like to hand water measuring PH and EC with canna a + b.

Can someone recommend tent size? what kinda of ballast?. Im going with two weeks VEG then straight to flower. 10 plants at a time. Im Aiming for a 2 pound harvest to last me the whole year. Ive changed my mind on growing outdoors because my neighbours are way too snoopy.bes

I need a good tent, good ballast , powerful 1000w light and a carbon filter.

10 plants at a time. with only 2 weeks veg. Lets see what can be recommend

Thanks guys!

forget the 1000wer, go 2 x 600wers (magnetic ballasts be fine- use decent globes), more spread, and go a tent about 2.4 x 1.2m......... 150-200mm centri fan, 250mm x 500mm carbon filter, 2 large cooltubes, ducting, 150mm inline fan for cooltubes, 5plants every 1.2 x 1.2m.......

 

Have fun . Nibbler.

Oh and I need an electriction to put power to my garage. The only power ill be needing is the Fans and Light. So what kinda AMPage to I ask for ???

Ive been recommend to say Im doing welding in here ?? 18 amp or something? I dont know. Help needed

what nibbler said is spot on but I would get bigger fan for that size tent and that size would be perfect for 10 plants . shop around when buying hydro equipment because it will pay off big time some are so more expensive than others good luck with the indoor growing

Nibblers set up will kill.

 

Veg gor 4-6 weeks. 2 weeks veg from seed in handwatered coco you will barely have a plant to flower.

 

I dont know much about electrics but im running way more wattage than your planning on using on standard household wiring.

Heya Dr Smok, I run all my set up off  a single 10 amp plug....... ask for 2  double ten amp outlets in shed, at bench height..... nuffin suss about that, and they off the deck.

 

Peace. Nibbler

if i had 2 grand to spend on a setup i wouldnt be buying cheap shit.

 

-get a nice tent, spend a few hundred at least, these gorilla tents look awesome.

 

-get yourself solistek matrix digital ballasts, lamps, remote control units.

 

-get a good carbon filter like mountain air or phat filter.

 

-get a really nice qualuty centrifugal fan.

 

- you're better off with large air cooled shades with glass rather than cooltubes for a bigger footprint from each lamp.

 

 

Make sure you spend the whole $2000. and buy yourself a cheeseburger for the munchies.

sweet, going to go get a quote today.  Should the cooltubes have a shade reflector off them???

or what about those big box looking ones? My shop has them. They look cool, look like a big glass box kinda?

[smokditup]

What pot size should I be looking at? this a 50/50 perlite and coco mix. Im thinking 10 litres? 4 weeks veg.

I think ive chosen POWERPLANT by dutchpassion. Looks killer. and very high THC. Bring it on.

Do you think this would achieve my 2 pound harvest guys?
