possibly 500 plants what should i do guys

hey guys need a little advice going to have 500 hundred or more plants soon
lights, ventilation, etc already taken care of. its just....i really don't know which way to go. maybe a massive drip irrigation system.. or 4x8 trays e&f With 50-60 each need help guys. my main concern would be the cheapest way possible far as the growing method and medium cost such as grow bags ,pots , coir, rockwool any info would be helpful aiming for 1oz per plant:dueling:

ha ha ha

first thing you should do is scale back your idea

try ten plants first.

or if you must go huge, first thing you need to do is put away bout 10 grand for your lawyer, just put him on retainer hire him or her on the spot

good luck

peace

you have to crawl before you can walk, is this your first grow?

I agree with johnipedestran, start small and see where that takes you...

Yes, good advice, why 500? What kind of question is this? Seems very weird, specially for a first post. Is thios LEO baiting us? LOL


500 plants will land you in the pen quickly, if you have no clue what you're doing..I mean, you don't even know what medium to use?

Fishy...

lol i love threads like this. Some newbie jumps on here with a great idea to grow like 500 plants like its an easy job lol.

And yes any advance growers isnt gonna come on here and ask what type of feeding system to use lol, this thread made my day lol.

Here's a tip assuming ur a novice grower 500 plants is a big investment. Use what ever feeding system worked for u in the past. And good luck ur gonna need it. If i where u i would mimic rockclimbers grow on gardenscure. thats just me. Good luck bro
 
well guys im no noob but i am no expert either... far as my first post usually im to busy to be learning from your wonderful post and mistake, plus pictures is what its all about and with gps technology in cameras/phones etc at this time they're not in my agenda..but nothings strange guys.. not asking where your ops are just advice and ideas creativity, everyone thinks they're no it all so there is no room for growth or full potential. but i ask these simple question from you because i was over looking my Jorge's Bible ( like a good Growers supposed too) and couldnt help to notice to novice yielded 30lbs off 8400 watts of hps lights +ventilation and other components so hit me up guys come on...i am a pretty fast learner the only person i have to talk to 4 advice is the guy at my shop and i try to keep it professional there at times

Dewd you make no sense...best of luck, buy a farm maybe, if you have to ask about basics on a 500 plant indoor grow, you are not prepared to do it efficiently and stealthly..

Christ dude. Taking care of 4 plants is hard enough for me, not sure what to tell you on 500. You would basically have to be working on them night and day. If you have the time, then awesome, but I can't really answer your questions lol.

I can tell ya from experience that your not gonna jump in with 500 plants and pull even close to what you think you will. There is a HUGE learning curve trying to care for that many plants. Not to mention a HUGE expense for indoor growing. HUGE !!

There are just to many variables for anyone to give you an answer to your question. How much space, how much money do ya have, how much experience, Etc. Only you can answer those questions.

Ambition is good..........But don't get disillusioned into thinking its as easy as "Hordhey" makes it sound. Cause its not.

Then your cheapest and probably easiest would be Flood and Drain with Gro-Rocks.

Go kill it !! And don't forget to post some photos.

I'm still a novice, and I prolly couldn't pull 30 lb off 8400w, lol. That's right, almost 4lb per.

500 plants @ 1/per = 31lb+.
2lb per light = 15k
Have you figgured out a way to pay the electric bill if you are worried about the pots vs grobags cost? How are you going to cool the 15k? Have you figgured that into the cost?

Prolly better to run 6 lights the right way than try to monkeyfukk your way through a 15k. If YOU are the grower pulling 30lb off 8400w, what do you need advice for, and why would you worry about cheap, lol? Good luck :D
