What's up GrassCity... I've been thinking about growing lately. I live in Arizona and can (under state law) grow up to 6 plants at a time. I live in a small town and we only have one dispensary which is not very good i'm afraid. Their bud is dry and almost crumbly, not properly cured, and i'm pretty sure they do not have original phenos of any strains. Therefore, I am looking to grow my own medicine. I am not completely unexperienced... when i was in highschool i grew an outdoor plant. I used no fertilizers or nutrients and just went along with the grow. The bud was not very good but it was moist and had a sweetish taste to it. Anyway... i've been thinking about growing in a 2x4x6 grow tent. I would have 2 plants under a 600w hps/mh light. Both plants would be in 7 gallon smart pots and i would scrog them. I plan on using fox farms ocean forest as my medium and the fox farms trio liquid nutrients. I also plan on topping my plants 2 or 3 times and then fimming right before it hits the screen. I want to push each plant to getting 6oz of dry buds each. My question is.. Is it even possible? If it is, how long should i veg for to obtain my desired amount? ANY advice, tips, and suggestions about anything from my setup is welcome! Thanks and STAY UP! EDIT: I also plan on lollipopping everything under the canopy to get full energy concentration on the colas.
Solid plan mate, I wouldn't bother fimming though, just top the tips a few times so they bush out and then just let the screen do the work. 12oz from a 600w is a fairly conservative figure, it should be pretty easy to get that as long as you don't have any major cock ups. Veg the plants until the screen is full. So when you look down you can't see through it, and not just because of a few leaves but you want a mass of growing shoots under there. Most people carry on pushing the growing tips back under the screen for anything up to a week after switching to 12/12, but this depends on your available height This is my ScrOG right now and I changed to 12/12 less than an hour ago. Just to give some sort of reference
