Cannabis with low electricity costs.

[horror business]

I use a 150 watt HPS witha 70 watt MH. I get 3-4 ounces every 50-70 days or so. Wiith ventilation running 24/7, this box costs about $20.00 a month to run.

Do those low watt HID lights require a ballast?

I can have one mother plant per adult, although.... we are not allowed to use air ventilation, lighting, ph meters, .... I'd like to grow my own buds, but I want to do it the right way! Our gouverment has caught a lot of growers through the high electricity bill. Is it possible to grow good smokable weed with a 100 watt lamp and what breed of weed will you suggest? I was thinking about Skunk #11.... If somebody just tell me how to go from A to Z I'd be very very Rating: 5

Wondering which watts, working.:wtf:
Lets start of with TV, CD,Printers,Sound sys, and the dreaded incan. light
One turn off all of them with the plug !!!!!!:thumbsup: , they are on hot standby all the time.
Next replace all lamps incand's with CPF they are not worth a dam for growing , but keep the buggie man away.
If your on a common meter , the management looks at them every month and can easly find out whos using the power.
I installed a meter (just like the power company's) It cost about 84 bucks a month for 1.000 and 8 4footers 40 watts each, co2 , fans, pumps, meters, computers, etc.
Noise, smell are friends (?) ARE the biggest problems with growing.
NO:Tomcat: :Tomcat: :Tomcat: TE the space under you nose is the most dangerous part of growing.

all liughts except normal incandescent have ballasts. cfls and other flouros, the ballasts are attached to the light itself..
