Huge Grow Room In Progress...

[palerider7777]

These are all pretty good justifications for doing things the way you are doing them. However, you seem to be putting way too much emphasis on vegging, or maybe just the wrong emphasis? :wtf:

For the kind of SOG grow that you are talking about, you are going to be starting with very small plants. There is really no need to ever veg them under the big lights. You can fine tune your operation so that the clones you produce are ready to flower as soon as you put them in your hydro unit. You really only need a few cfl's to accomplish this first part of the process. (Clone in Rapid Rooters. Put only four clones in each six-clone egg-crate thingy. Put six egg-crates in each dome - in other words, give them plenty of breathing room/space. It'll take about 6-7 days for the clones to have roots. When they all have roots, take the domes off, put the trays under more flouros for 3-4 days and you are ready to flower. And you'll be starting out with plants with a bodacious root structure.)

Anyway, you might want to re-think how much space and what kind of equipment you want to devote to the cloning/vegging part of the operation.

Regardless of if you actually ever use your lights with MHs, the digital ballasts are more efficient and are a good investment. One real nice thing about the 600w's is that they sell real quickly on ebay when you realize that you actually should have 1000's.

thats sum real good advice and thats what i was gonna say is if ur setting up a room that big u should be doing nothin but cloning and u would hardly use the mh as cfls do real good to get them started so hope he did'nt already buy all that stuff cause it sounds like someone that has already ordered or bought the stuff so he wants to defend it more than if he did'nt or whatever

Oh, I think it's probably more like the Hulkster put a whole lot of research into the planning of his growroom and he's going to need to see some pretty convincing evidence - as opposed to just remarks from you and me - before he changes his mind.

That's pretty much human nature, don't ya think?

Havnt bought anything yet ... as of now I'm just building the layout of the room and setting up my clone and mother room.

I guess 'm defending the 600's becuase I had a long discusiion with zandor about them and thats what he said I should use
