gotcha, i had read 2 to 3k lumens per sq ft/, and im seeing now 8k, good advice and ill research it more. I havent begun this process yet, i am simply planning. Should be moving into a new place in december, so i wana have all my ducks in a row. I'll look into a 1000W HPS system, 140k initial lumens, prolly around 110 mean lumens. thats looking at 14 sq ft or so.


To be completly guns and money though, my goals are to have 4 plants mature each month with an optimum output of 8 oz, average 5. How much space and lighting power am i going to need.

If i do this on a 4 month cycle, do i need 4 grow rooms or can this be done in one room with different heigth plants. Maybe the better option is to grow 16 or 20 plants in one big cycle and look for a big yield?


Again, if anyone can tell me, if a plant flowers, then is topped and put back to vegitation, can it again be put to flower after it makes growth back fromt he topping with its two new shoots? repeat process = one plant for life?
