Hypothetical Scenario

[BlazinTreesX3]

What if a person got an apartment went into a bedroom waterproofed the carpet with tarp. Stirred up a foxfarm soil mix with guanos and wormcastings in 5 pots 5 gallon size. Hung up a 600 w MH from the middle of ceiling and ran that 20/4. Monitored ph and ppm. Did this for 3 weeks then took down the MH and hung up a 600 W HPS to flower for 8 weeks on 12/12.

The room would be polyshielded and lightproofed and exhausted through the duct system (heating cooling duct) Through a filter and intake fresh air through the window. A fan always blowing on the canopies and co2 bucket set up during flower( or veg?)

Maybe more plants if its a big bedroom.


How much would those 5 plants yield. is 1.5 ounces each way off? how much would ten times the plants yield with proper lighting.? Lemme know my curiosity is killing me!:rasta:

Anyone will tell you that yield is highly variable, regardless of your setup. First thing to do is choose a high-yielding strain. Your hypothetical setup seems optimal, but you'll also need to keep up a proper fertilization schedule, especially during flowing in order to get high yields. Seems like you're going organic, so for flowing you might want to try Budswel fertilizer.

3 weeks veg is very short.
You don't need to monitor ppms with dirt.
CO2 is something only a really experienced grower can see a difference in yield using.

Under perfect conditions you can get 0.5g/flowering room watt/month
So shoot for 600g/crop. That's over a pound.

BUT. and it's a big but.... That's if you have everything tweaked in perfectly, including vegging for a longer time.

I need more opinions And some more questions how much would the person get if they upgraded to 50 plants? And if they were to keep a couple mothers from the first seed grow in the rooms closet underflourescents how many cuttings could possibly be taken from them each time?

Is it possible for a room to be divided in two lightproof rooms and one half used for veg and one for flower?

Thanks for the help !

Umm if you live in the US you should reconsider this hypothetical scenario. Think small, real small, if you want to play it safe.

[mscaboo]

do you live in the us?

[BlazinTreesX3]

Yea I live in the u.s.a why?

[phytokind]

Well then grow small or don't tell anybody you grow big, be careful dude.

[phytokind]

But do what you want to do. I'd say that your first scenario is more realistic. 50 plants is quite a lot.
