New Build...24x18x10 @ 12-16K watts (2 rooms)

10-4 on that...plus its nice when they start going nuts with growth that you can turn off 4 of the bulbs with a switch and not lose the whole light

 

Nothing special, just a shot of the 2 rows doin their thing, one at 8 weeks, other is at 2 weeks....in row one I didn't have a chance to top them at all and got a shitty canopy and probably losing 1-2lbs because of it. But I just had to get a run in, for obvious reasons. The 8x4 table has been topped 1 time and it very even so far at week 2, the 4x4 table is entirely single stalk plants

 

thanks Res..still got a long way to go to max out yields, I think im literally nowhere near where I NEED to be or should be

 

I have all of my setup running full blast minus the 3200watts for the last row and I finally got a full bill from a month of service with the 6400watts, mini splits, 8 fans, 4, 8bulb t5 setups, cloner, pumps, 5k btu wall AC...aaaand


Its a mere $190


As long as I can cool it, im guna blast in another 3k of light

 

You sure that bill isn't estimated? Seems pretty low . Around here they estimate one month and actual reading the next.


Looking sweet though!

 

Man you must have some badass electric rates. Or just awesome time of the year but man it costs us almost $300 Just for 7k of light, our bills for a similar setup were 2-3x yours. Crazy!

 

I know rates vary across the country. Didn't know it varied that much.

 

No estimate....I read thru it 20 times


I guess going way over board on insulation and overpowering ac made a difference


I consequently got the bill where I had my original grow and it went down 250...so not too off base within comparasin

 

Oh yeah, where I am power is about .08/kwh. Parts of California it's .40 or something ridiculous like that. Industry in the middle of my state gets it even better - its publicly subsidized and costs something like .04/kwh if memory serves. Folk have been building bitcoin mines in the middle of WA like its going out of style... but there's no substitute for efficiency


Can't wait to see some harvest shots!

 

im once a week for changes...doing USELESS formula, uses a bit more nutes but it cant be easier and more productive


We'll know for sure next month on the overall total ELEC bill that will have the entire setup bangin'


Started trimming tonite...got about 2lbs done, looks like maybe 2.5-3 more to go

 

so far 3 days of trimming for about 4 hours per day, 2 people, got about 3.5lbs trimmed up so far and bout 1-1.5 to go

 

Damn, is it for a full month billing period. I know removing household usage makes a big difference but man alive. My house where I work from has all unnecessary breakers cut off. The only usage besides grow is the fridge, tv, and a couple dehumidifiers. Half that elect usage runs me 225 now and 300 in the cold of winter.


Unless the meter's fucked up you've got some great rates. :coool:


Be Cool, CG

 

How could you not?!? You money making son of a... :thumbs-up:


I know I havent been around in quite some time, but whatever happened to you 5gal RDWC setup? I used to love seeing you pull 3.5lbs off of 3-4 plants! Ever get your sludge/ooze problems solved?

 

You guys are going to hate me but.... My electricity bill for my entire house is hardly ever even $100. House is only ~1600sqft, but shit is cheaper than any apartment or anything I've ever lived in. Gotta love efficiency. Insane, so guess CC just got this bitch all nice and efficient with all his efforts and planning the build from ground up. :not-worthy: Definitely going to pay off big time. Good stuff!

 

CG....its a full bill for 30 days with 6400 watts hps, mini split and tons of small stuff, fridge, 70inch hdtv, surround sound


I stopped using any boosters, I did so many off and on runs with and without, never saw a differance In yield or potency


JJB...sup bro..the game has been good, work hard and it pays off in many ways...never solved the slime so I went to tables....waaay more reliable


I believe my room should be R-30+ within all walls surrounding and ceiling....put ALOT of $$$$ into that part, atleast 3,000 bux


Nip...didn't spray foam exterior walls, used 2inch solid foamboard, then caulked and great stuff spray foamed all edges, taped all seams with heavy duty packing tape....perfectly airtight!!! so tight when the garage door goes down, you can see the ceiling foam pull downward and creek in places its not button cap nailed
