    Default Complete novice some setup thoughts

    Planning stage
    Thinking of a lighthouse max tent 100x100x200
    Viperspecter 900w LED (about 400w from wall)
    Thinking Coco
    Would 3 plants (indica dominant) topped twice be too much
    Obviously suitable venting
    Thanks in advance

    Wouldnt bother with the led tbh with you, youll only end up replacing it for a hps in the end, get a 600w lumatek and a gavita bulb.

    5inch rhino pro carbon filter, 5inch rvk L1 extractor, 4inch rvk intake ( or can run passive without using intake and open vents on tent)
    top away if you want bro

    if coco, you need ec meter (bluelabs truncheon) Ph pen essentials or bluelabs , what size pot you thinkin? 10 or 15ltr?
    nutes, canna AB, rhizotonic, liquid silicon by growth technology, pk13/14 and a bloom if you want like big bud coco

    Thanks, great feedback
    How many plants could I getaway way in that size tent, topping perhaps twice
    And on a good grow what sort of yield could be expected
    Thinking THC Bomb, or papaya
    Thanks in advance

    i did four in in a tent that size while back, in 10litre pots. gets busy but can be done. alot depends on your veg time an and also some training techniques. but you wana think about space for heater (if you wish to have it in the tent) humidifier, fans etc. i have four in a 1.2 x1.2 which leaves me plenty space but its rammed off the four.

    best thing do is get the pots and put them in and have play an look see what you think. the more you top them the more bushy and wide they will go

    THC bomb a good choice seen this grown couple times

    if growing shorter plants will probs go 10 ltr pots, i beleave less chance of over watering.
    but with topping will probs stay with 3 plants, and may veg another couple of weeks under LED and some bending tying
    thinking of staying with 900W LED ( could supplement with small HPS during bloom) not sure yet ???
    Thanks for all the feedback, much appreciated

    Keep in mind in coco you have to water and feed every day. It can take up a fair bit of time as you also have to drain runoff in addition to spending time measuring nutes and measuring the solutions ec and ph content. Look to spend at least 30 minutes a day doing this maybe more

    thinking coco because can be less problematic with soil infestation and possible better yield.
    first knuckle down if dry water with 10-20% runoff ?
    no not got LED yet but been doing some reading and figured on Viper Specter 900W (400w from wall) 3 plants 130W each ?
    not got any equipment yet lol, making sure i get the right setup.
    been looking at the lighthouse max 10x10x200 600D cloth ultralux lining £120. also looked at the mars-hydro 1680d mylar lining £100 but someone complained of gassing killing his plants

    with a 100x100x200 tent 2x450 LED's is it possible to grow 1 plant or is the tent to big, is it better to grow 2 plants in that space.
    thanks in advance
