Grow Mediums 2000 Watt Perpetual Hydroponic AutoFlower ScrOG

[Taviddude]

I run a separate meter for the grow room, and I push 1,600 KWH's in month 2 and 3. Month 1 is half that.
I pay 0.10 per KWH so I'm right at 160.00 a month.
400 bucks per 90 day grow, so an average of 133.00 bucks a month for me.

This is why I'm saving up for a decent LED.

Yeah, it isn't cheap, but the first ounce and a half pay for the electricity.
The other 46 zips are all free


I'm waiting for LED prices to drop, and hopefully with new lens technology they can get a better light spread.
LED's have no problem Bleaching the SHIT out of a plant with all that PAR. powerful mofo's

Appreciate the math man.. helps me figure shit out. I pay 0.13/kwh right now and it goes up in the summer (0.14-0.15/kwh), perpetual scrog is so gorgeous and productive. Can't rep you anymore but I do appreciate the breakdown. I'm assuming at that kwh/day rate you're running a lot more electrical equipment than just the lights? I run one 5k BTU AC, 600w HPS, 1 T5HO (total output 125w) and 75W of CFL, 450cfm inline fan, 140 inline booster and baseboard heater as needed. Not including heating pads, cloning bucket, etc since they're not used >60% of the time. I'm going to have to upgrade the A/C this summer because 5k BTU just doesn't cut it when temps push 80+ at night

Yeah, I run a couple water punps, some fans, controllers, air pumps, and lately a heater for another project.

Thanks A Lot Tony!
A couple months ago I NEVER would have imagined I could pull something like this off.
Thanks to all of DP for all your hard on making auto's that are worth growing.
