That ain`t gonna work

 

It's been working fine for over 10 years thanks @ratdog. Why not pop into my 1 foot farm diary a few threads below this one and see for yourself?

I've got a 315 CMH in a DR90 with an RVK125L running off a cost meter which shows a max draw of 426 watts. The 315 ballast also only runs at 1 amp...

Mebbe feasible off solar and wind.

Fair do`s, just thought you can`t turn around a plant every 2-3 weeks in such a small space with such low watts, sorry if I offended you mate.

And thats what I meant by results, as in how much do you need to grow. The more you need to get from a crop the bigger the light needs to be

 

For example if you only have say a 100w light then your result will be a waste of time to be honest. You might get half ounce if your lucky. Its all relative

 

Owd

 

your statement is incorrect / wrong.  8 ounces with 150W light.  1.5g/W

A half ounce is ~14g

 

With a 100W light thats 0.14g/W

easy big man, I wasn't threatening you! 

 

 

 

@Prophet - its considered a pretty run of the mill result, just depends what forums your reading, I think this place is mostly HID and so 1.5g/w is considered good, other places wouldn't raise an eyebrow....
