800 watts for 8 plants, will this work?
Im seriously reconsidering the "8plant grow project" because I stroll over to my closet and damn.. The 5 plants (one died) I have in there right now are nicely tugged in, Im not sure if I could fit another 2. Once my xfriend comes over with her camera I'll take some snaps cuz my bullshit phone I bought overseas won't let me send pictures to my email for some reason. Anyhow, if i proceed with 8plants should I really consider SOG? I really dont want to but if that's going to let me grow 8 plants then I might have to, but why since I have sufficient lighting to saturate them? SOG is for people who dont have enough lighting?
BlueBear, can u direct to the member who grew 36 plants in that space? I'd like to see how he does it. Yeah, Im just growing with MH all the way, I think the huge watts will compensate for the not-so-optimal spectrum. Sorry to hear about ur sight problem, seems like its not so bad if you're able to read these posts? =D Btw, if its not too personal, what's Adieu? cuz that's chinese for 'fukker'.. lol

if its any help, this space is 2 feet by 2 and a half feet, 6 plants are average 25 inches not including pots, about 1.5/2 weeks into flowering.

Hmmm.. Those pots are about the same size of the ones I want to use to grow 8 plants with.. How many litres are they? If you're growing in them and they're big and no rootbound then maybe I should re-reconsider =D

Well, my sight is now so bad that I can't even read these post without some assistive technology, but that's life. The member that I referred to is on IC Mag and I will have to take some time to do a search over there to find his posts. If I were you I would really consider SCROG, look for the thread "Lovely Ladies" by Justaseed on this sight. He has pulled off some harvests of over a QP using a lot less light than you have and with similar dimensions.
Also, there are plenty of people using 1000k plus for sog set ups, there is one on the board right now by Trainable I think the name is, really informative thread, maybe someone can link us to it. Sog can be used for height restrictions, fast turn overs and low light set ups.
In regards to getting a hood, I would just miler the whole area rather than use hoods if your not having heat issues and because you have so many lums with the two 400w's you should be in really good shape. I believe that Zandar uses no hoods on his grows and his results should speak for their self. The hood material will generate more heat down on the plants and it may cause heat issues that you don't have right now.
Adieu means good day in French.
Adieu
