Just a thought- you could up the yeild a lot by repotting at an angle, so the plants are more paralell to the shoplights. Still won't be much, but it'll be more.

You might want to upgrade in stages- go for the better gear, and when that's performing well for you, go for the good beans. If I'd been paying $5-10 for every seed I killed in the first few runs... I don't know what that would've cost. Bag seed handled well can be remarkabley good.

Tangental side point- Princess, the individual that c99 was brought up from, was a bag seed.

There's a learning experiance involved in your first HID run- it's differant from flo's. Hotter, faster- stuff can go wrong pretty quick. If you have access to bag seed, play w/ it- what the hell, it's already paid for...
