We all come across a time when we are a bit short on the cash we might like to have, I'm there now.
So I'm looking at a few options for reducing the cost of my electric use. I have a budget of just $250 for my lights in veg and $300 in flower.
I can eat up the $250 in veg with 42 18 hour days under 864w of T-5 lights...
Or
I can veg for 60 days and save $30 using just 4 lamps (216w) to start and add 4 more every 15 days. That's 216w day 1-15, 432w day 16-30, 648w day 31-45, and 864w day 46-60.
I'll be able to flower under a full 864w for 74 days with my flower budget.
I'm leaning toward the 60 day veg, but can't be sure I'm right.
Strain: Super Silver Haze
Lights: 8 lamp T-5HO times 2 with 6500k bulbs for veg, and 3000k bulbs for flower.
Any input would be spectacular.
