    Default Starting growing setup advice needed

    Hi,

    I am a 30 something male living in London looking to grow and produce approx 4oz a month for personal use. I work from home offering digital marketing services so I smoke a fair bits so the more the better.

    I am spending almost a £1000 per month and the weed quality is so hit and miss and picking up in Brixton isn't the safest trip each month.

    I have about £2000 to spend on setup but budget isn't that important can increase if need be.

    What would be the ideal setup to produce quality bud without having to grow more than 6 plants at a time.

    Cheers in advance

    Hi mate, welcome along

    48oz a year is a little out of my league, around 15 oz does me But I would imagine something like a 1.2x1.2 tent & two 600w HPS lights would do the job? I'm sure someone will correct me if I'm wrong

    4oz a month for percy consumption is a hell of alot weed imo 🙄 maybe there isnt much thc on the weed you buying 😂
    Id go for a 2.4x1.2x2 tent running 2x600w HPS lights, 4 delahaze plants in coco and airpots, rhizosystem, big res and auto feeding system set up... can easily afford all that with a 2k budget

    Fan1: G-Tools 125 2 speed fan – 230/360M3 per hour, including silencer.
    Fan2: G-Tools 420 m3 per hour fan with temperature setting and speed controller,including silencer.
    Filter: 2 x Prima Klima K2601 360m3
    Ballast: 2 x Lucilux 600 Watt electronic ballast with dim function
    Lamp: 2 x 600W Sunmaster Dual Spectrum with Adjust-A-Wings reflector, large model, inc. heat spreaders.

    Trust me, the first thing everyone notices about home grown is the huge increase in quality (and potency!) - but still aim for your original amount!
