I would rather grow trees and I was paying .44/kw in SD. JK

I was paying 44 cents/kw not .0044 cents. It was hiway robbery that made one think of murder.JKDamn that's getting away with murder I am paying now 7.44
Getting ready to set my new spot up and torn between beds or vert.I know beds and feel comfortable with them,however I have been checking you vert guys out and you're just killing it. But it seems lots of you guys are running 10k+ worth of lights ...I don't have that option but can do around 4k watts . Can i pull off a successful crop with only 4k watts? The new spot only has 8'' ceiling so I am thinking something like the wall of dank but not quite sure how to pull it off should I double stack 600's or 1000's and how wide should the room be? I might just run one room vert and one room beds and see what i am better at.
I ran a stadium with 5 tiers per side on castors. 3k in lights on a mover. since the bulbs were always moving I could get them pretty close. each row held 10 3 gallon pots. room was 10 x 12 with 7 foot ceiling. system produced 2lb plus per light. and that was with multi strains. could have been better mono cropping. best system I ever ran. I love vert.

This is really nice. How tall were you flipping? I would say 6-10"?
Looks like someone decided to make some money off HR's designs. Glad to see people want to pay for quality. I have pics of a 4x4 on top of my tanks. though for that money it would be in the 50 gal range with some cool things inside. JK
HR is Heath Robinson, name kinda sounds British. I sure you can google him to check out his designs.when I did a tree grow I used an aquafarm I converted to a baby MPB I grew 1 plant out with 2 600w on the 1 plant. I had a chiller to control reservoir temps when I first yielded I thought I did 1.8g/w but when I factored the chiller in it dropped to 1.2g/w
Never heard of HR over here in the UK but I spoke to the guy who designed it he told me he built it originally for tomatoes and cucumbers in the back garden all his own design. It was only when he got a wholesaler interested did he adapt it for artificial lighting on their suggestion he told me he'd never even heard of hps or grow tents until he met the wholesaler.
I suspect I'm more worried about the environment than most of you but I do drive a 5.7l 70's Camaro which does 4 miles per litre lol so I'm also the worst offender :)
BUT the worse offender with a cool car :)
I'm very tempted to try growing a few plants out in the tomato mode to reduce plant numbers but I feel the HPS mode is going to yield considerably better.
