Ahh sixstring2112, Thems some real sexy moves your pulling off. I knew there were folks pulling big numbers from single plants but could never remember the names when the new folks came a knocking. Now I know where to point them. Your names going in my mental book of badass grows. Nice work, great nug shots. Some tasty looking nuggets of joy!

I love that you add so many pictures. I barely even read comments, which my questions probably reveal: How big of a space is your plant covering and how much light in W do you have over it? I basically want to know how many I can fit into my 3x4 or 4x4. I just finished my first 200w bar today and it is surprisingly bright. The pictures dont share that at all. Also, what is your soil recipe? If its already been stated, I wont be annoyed with impolite "go read newb".comments at all. Thanks for sharing, great stuff!

there are 3 bars of 5 cobs in that area so 15 .but im only half done with that spot,it used to have 3 x 600w hps on a mover in there over 3 plants.i took those down but im waiting on parts to finish the other 3 bars and then ill have 3 plants there again with about 400 less watts plus no cooling fan for the tubes so more like 500w.
my op was 12kw total before i removed the 3 hid lamps,i think im around 10.7kw now with the cobs
the space is 5ft x 6.5ft where those bars are being used.the plant is about 5 x 5 and in a 10 gal squat pot of promix bx.about 540w total for the space.for your 4x4 i would say 9 or 12 cobs depending on how hard your driving them.1 cob per sq ft seems to be the norm around here,and its working well for me.thanks for droppin by,peace

How many watts of cob? The DE looks like its slaughtering the cob fixture by leaps and bounds.

540ish w of cobs.its 15 x 36v cree driven @ 1050ma
I know the de plant is much taller and wider but there are no gaps in the cob colas and she looks very heavy to me so it is probably closer than it looks weight wise.im real happy with that cob plant for whats there in power.

If your nugs do what my nugs do, you're gonna have a crop of rocks. Mine are hard, dense and heavy.

...and gone!
