You need to get a efw small grows under your belt first, you will surely have an unsuccessful few first tries like the rest of us.

Also you better ahve a big wallet because the supplies for such a grow will be expensive. Heres a little layout showing the plants and the coverage of 1000 watt bulbs. You may want to take out a second mortgage for the 13 HPS and 13 MH lights and bulbs and then get a second job for the electric bill.

Maybe I am wrong but that diagraom looks like you are placing 4 plants under each 1k watt lamp? If so no wonder your first grows failed. Also, 50 plants is not that many if you are growing smaller clones.

I seen some SOG setups that have 4 plants per square foot. It's just a lot of work because of all the damn purning.

personally if I was growing that many plants I would do it outside if possible, to expensive to do indoors, its all good if you have the money but its gonna be smelly in there and i hope you dont have close neighbours
