P-Sol Financial Analysis

P-Sol Flowering Room Revenue Model

Modify the parameters below to model possible revenue impact when switching to a shorter-than 24-hour or longer-than 24-hour P-Sol flowering schedule.

 ? The number of days in a normal flowering cycle.
 ? The number of days required to clean and reset a flower room before flowering can begin again.
 ? The fixed costs you associate with each flower run, including defoliation, harvesting, cleaning, etc. but excluding electrical costs and rent.
 ? The cost of rent / taxes for the flower room per month.
 ? The average final dried and trimmed yield from the flower room, in pounds.
 ? The price you can get from selling a single pound of finished flowers.
 ? The total watts used by lights, fans and HVAC in the flower room while the lights are on.
 ? The total watts used by HVAC, dehumidifiers and fans in the flower room while the lights are off.
 ? The price you pay for a kilowatt-hour of electricity.
 ? The number of hours lights will be on for the P-Sol schedule; to induce flowering the dark period is assumed to be 12 hours.
 ? This field can be used to model a potential reduction in yield for the accelerated P-Sol schedule, to see how much yield would need to decrease before a shorter-than 24-hour P-Sol schedule does not make financial sense.This field can be used to model a potential increase in yield for the longer-than 24-hour P-Sol schedule given that the plants can receive more light each P-Sol ("day"), to see if it makes financial sense to go with a longer flowering schedule.
 ? With a longer-than 24-hour P-Sol schedule the plants need less light intensity to achieve the same daily light integral (DLI, or total number of photons per light/dark cycle). However, if you are exploring a longer-than 24-hour P-Sol schedule to potentially increase yield because your existing flowering lights aren't as intense as they could/should be, running your existing lights at 100% with more than 12 hours light-on will increase the DLI and potentially increase yield, so decreasing the light intensity proportional to the increased lights-on period would be counter-productive.

The average hours of lights-on, hours of lights-off, and kWh per day are calculated excluding the cleaning and reset days.

Relative light intensity for the modeled P-Sol schedule room is automatically adjusted to provide the plants with the same daily light integral (DLI)- the total number of photons per day (or P-Sol)- as the "normal" 12/12 flowering schedule. Lights-on electric use (for both lights and HVAC) is also adjusted to account for the different P-Sol light intensity, for example doubling light would require double the HVAC.
