i cant say, b/c i dont know what $ run where your at, & i cant predict how much your plants will yeild either. i can say that i usually get about 2-3oz average off my plants, & an oz will sell for between 300-500$, so if u do everything right & u get at least an oz a plant, thats at least 300$ x 4 = 1200$, so u might be able to, but we dont condone in illegal activity, so i cant give u selling advise.

its better to keep it out the box for several reasons, 1. water & electisity dont mix, 2. it gives off heat, which is not good for the plants, & 3. u should always follow the manufacture directions. 4. better safe than sorry.

Thanks for the reply. Another Question days here are looking beautiful. So Would it be smart to let my plants out to get some real sun? Like maybe 6-9 hours a day and then the rest stick them back under cfl's? Or stick with one or the other?

thats a debatible ?, b/c ive done this & sometimes the plants love it & sometimes it stresses them out, going from cfl's then to the high intensity & heat of the sun. it wont hurt to try, keep an eye on them, b/c the main prob i had doing this was the heat factor, which fryed some of my leaves on my plants. they will handle this transisition if u wait till they are a few wks old.

We here at Grasscity would like to continue what we love so much and thats GROWING.

And many can and do grow legally,but selling is not legal at least here in the states.

So please read the rules and follow them as JCJ has said,we wont condone selling under any circumstances.

All your growing questions are fine though.
