does anyone have rough numbers on what watts do do...
HiddenMessagestarted grow question 4 years ago
does anyone have rough numbers on what watts do do you electric bill? Per hour or per day per month? Say you you have an average 150$ electric bill before growing. Then add 2000w to a grow tent. How much an effect would that have on cost of bill?

2000W for 18 hours a day will cost you about $150 a month on average. Your electric company may also charge you things like "delivery fee" or whatever on top of that. I would figure in about $200 a month total after all is said and done and assuming some of that 2000W will run for 24hrs a day.

Just for your setup, you would have to add your normal bill costs on top of that.

Nute Advice - Botanicare PBP vs. KIND Full Range (Base Supplements).Thinking of changing nutes from @Shogun to @Botanicare for next run.

Flowering/Preflowering/Showing sex in Vegative Stage?Hey,
Today I noticed all my outdoor plants have pistils after being 3-5weeks outside. Is this normal and will they continue veg due to increasing days/temps? Also, could this be reversed with additional light? Currently in the 7th week of Spring with 14h light and 13h sunrise.4 years ago
