@Wisher619 how would you set up a 5x10 tent? How many CMH would I need and what's the best way to grow if one were going for efficiency?

the most efficient way of growing IMO is SOG/sea of green method
flood and drain
so I would run 2 4x4 flood tables (1 strain per table)or 1 4x8 table
run 3x315w cmh's
fit as many 5"x5"/6"x6" square pots in each table
run pure coco medium
and run a single stem clone per pot

1 week of veg after transplant then off to the races

I'm going to pull the trigger on this today or tomorrow. 3 315cmh will work or will I need 4?

1 315 will cover a 3x3 well 4x4 is stretching it
but if you run 3 of them over that 4x8 space it should be covered
and just keep the canopy managed on the edges of the table
but 1 every 2' should work really well
that is 1k of wattage
over on ICmag I have seen people pull 1# from a 4x4 from 1 315

also the reflectivity of the tent will increase coverage

Or you gonna use your system or a flood table?
I just know that the flood table just as he directed, sog will yield better than any of us are now... but plant count would murder me.....

Flood table. This is now for efficiency. I am presently without job (as of last week). Have a best friend ready to invest some money with me. So life is happening I need to keep up.

yeah if you are trying to get it done now
CMH is probably the best way to go

with LED when you start scaling up it gets pretty expensive and probably dosnt get you the best return on investment
especially when you can run 2 1k gavitas in that same spot for less money

of course you dont have the head room some something with less wattage and heat works better
cmh def could do the job for less heat

Well maybe I will get lucky and find a used external ballast that works with cmh for a decent price and just buy a bulb and use for a test run...
Plus if man hands buys 30th put over his 4x8 I get a test run to watch...

I don't feel safe in this world no more
I don't wanna die in a nuclear war.

I wanna sail away to a distant shore
And live like an ape man....
