i have been growing this strain for a while now and always a good producer i usually get a qp off of 3 plants well this time i upgraded i was running a 400 mh with a hps conversion bulb in it well for this grow i changed the light to a 600w hps with a digi balast and made a tent with panda poly and the whole nine yards but i have 6 in there and it looks like im gonna get less than i get out three plant the only thing i can think is i used compost from a freinds 10 year old pile. for ferts i use fox farms bigbloom and jacks best bloom booster half strenght every 3 days the temp is about 76. could switching the light from 400 to 600 early into flowering of caused this too
no way dude, the problems are definetly on your end this time.... a bigger light isn't going to hurt your plants unless the other conditions YOU give it, are optimal. thats like saying a 400w is better than a 1000w.... sure maybe a few gangsters of growing get more yield off a 400w than the shittiest of the shits using a 1000w.... but overall, the 1k will whomp the 400w... you just gotta give it the right conditions. did you use the same pot size? cuz you doubled your plants.... 3-4 is great for a 400w. 5-6 is pushin it a lil, im assuming you were growing 5-6 healthy sized plants.... cuz i mean if your going sog, you could put like 10 plants under a 400w.... but u get the idea.... bigger containers = more root space = bigger plant = bigger budz whos got more muscle, a 225 lb running back, or that 135 lb boxer... whos got more buds??? a 4 ft monster lst'd with topping, or 2 small 8'' clones going straight to 12/12 from flowering.
pots are bigger i was using 2 gal pots before i went to 3 gal poly bags 3 were clones that went straight in 2 otheres were veged for about a month using super cropping witch i normaly do and the last was a mother i retired maybe i need co2 i just don't get it i bought some better soil for next time im not gonna use the compost again and see if it helps
ehh.. maybe you messed up along the way somewhere.... or just had an unreasonably good harvest off your 400w... takes a grow or 2 to get adjusted to a new light... how far away are you keeping your 600w? can you get it any closer? try lst'ing all your plants or put in a screen it to get a more even canopy
no thats total i use the super cropping method they stay under 2 feet how do you get that much per plant
I use GH Flora nutes, start with 3-2-1 in veg, goto 2-2-2 a week or so before bloom lights, and once in bloom lighting 1-2-3. I top and train it during veg to keep it about 4 ft and bushy, it gains a foot in flower (1 ft of bud growth). I use a 400W cfl (t5's) and mylar in most cases (sometimes panda poly). ...and I talked to them...sounds girly but I did, calling them my babies, sweet girls and such
well this crop don't mean to much anyhow seeing im cutting them 2 weeks early im evicting my tennents they now what im doing but they think im taking a break but went into the tent earlier and forgot to shut the door behind me so the smell lingered in to the hall way and heared there friends bitching about the smell so breaking the whole setup down and putting it away till there gone and hiding all my clones
