Hello people, this is my first post and ive been waiting 24 hours since registration. Been scanning a while here and its the most helpfull to me so far due to the strong UK base. Anyway ill stop chatting shite and get to my point.

The spec is
1X 400W COMPLETE GROW LIGHT KIT
1X 400W HPS LAMP
1X 400W POWER PACK
1X DUTCH SHADE
1X 4" CARBON FAN KIT
1X 4"CARBON FILTER
1X 4" EXTRACTOR FAN TT100 TURBO
1X 1m x 1m x 2m Darkroom


Ill be using a (to be made) homemade NTF as custom is better and cheaper im hearing.
My Q's are.....

Yeild??? from past experience
400W OK?
How many plants? Cheese & G/fruit i think it is

Nice one in advance


I do not condone cultivation, this is just me pretending

Oh yeah i could do with advice on size of tray to use and where to possibly get one. Im guessing something along the 0.9m sq to max the space but can only see a 1m sq one for £25 which if my box is 1m sq would be to tight. Any ideas?

My most recent grow = 400W, 3 Chronic plants on a off-the-shelf GT205 system.

I would advise the same for you.
I also recommend the GT205 system - quite cheap (for a one off buy), you get all you need and it would save you the hassle of making one.

Im just pretending as well, of course.

My mate reckons id get a 1x1m tray in my 1x1m tent....you think?

ya definately won't be able to fit an 1m2 nft into a 1m2 tent cause the tank that the 1m tray sits in is about 1.2m wide on the side that you can open ! i'd buy a 1.2 tent for flower or if your gonna stick with the 1m tent get 2 nft 205 systems,another thing is if you use one of the 1m2 nft's you'll be limited in the amount of different strains you'll be able to do,cause they all feed at different nute strengths in flower,basically one plant could want an ec of 1.2 and another could want an ec of 1.4 in flower so because the nutes are comin from the same tank you'll be over feeding 1 of them

i reckon a 400w light wont fill that space completely, i have pretty much the exact same space (a little bigger) and sometimes i wonder if my 600 is enough...

your 600w is fine maybe a bit to much but fine , his 400w is fine maybe abit small but fine

cant help but wonder what a 1000w what do though ehg
