Those dudes are in their underwear 
so i've been thinking about the 'old style' vs. the 'new style' g.y.p.s.y.b.u.s.h.g.r.o.w. ....
and i know you've said that the bean counter is requesting a return to the old style, but perhaps there is a 'happy medium'. Like just having 2-3 weeks of veg. time?

Well I'm thinking about it ...
but the zero veg SOG is soooo efficient...
I like the idea of having the HIDs in 12/12 ALL the time...
Any extra veg seems to me like extra cost...
How do you justify vegging? how do you work your numbers to make it come out on top?

I like it...
Someone that was a little kid once said:Everything I need to know, I learned from Noah's Ark
ONE: Don't miss the boat.
TWO: Remember that we are all in the same boat!
THREE: Plan ahead. It wasn't raining when Noah built the Ark.
FOUR: Stay fit. When you're 60 years old, someone may ask you to do something really big.
FIVE: Don't listen to critics; just get on with the job that needs to be done.
SIX: Build your future on high ground.
SEVEN: For safety's sake, travel in pairs.
EIGHT: Speed isn't always an advantage. The snails were on board with the cheetahs.
NINE: When you're stressed, float awhile.
TEN: Remember, the Ark was built by amateurs; the Titanic by professionals.
ELEVEN: No matter the storm, you are with friends.

For me its a hobby so numbers dont bother me. My grows are just for personal use but the person that helped me start growing indoors grew purely for profit. He did 3 grows of 4 plants each year and was making in excess of 90k per year from a total of only 12 plants. Everything he grew got sold to one person. I dont care what anyone says because that is what I call efficient if your growing for profit.

damn ya 90k off of 12 plants a year is well worth the money spent. Depending on how much you accutally spent running the grow up aslong as your profits are atleast more than 50% of what you spent I say hell to the mothafuck ya lmao

Peaceyou justify doing some veg. time for the original reason that you wanted to try growing just a couple plants per light...
you do some veg. time so that you can run less plant numbers and still have a 'sea of green'. the more plants you have the faster you fill in the sea of green. but if you vegged for 2-3 weeks (after cloning for 10-14 days) it would allow you to run about 1/2 as many plants, i would guess. i know you were talking about cutting down on plant numbers for a while there... so that would be one way to do it.
it don't have to be Either Trees or Midgets
.
please pardon the curiousity but i'm wondering how anyone makes 90k off of 12 plants. is he getting 3 lbs. a plant and selling each pound for 3200 or what?
if he's growing 36 lbs. a year ... no, that's nothing to be ashamed of.

yeah i'm a bit confused on that too...
maybe he lives in a place where weed is VERY expensive?
or maybe every plant is 20 feet tall?
or maybe he sold it all to a rich dumbfuck?
idk man, fill us in...

Yeah on average he is getting 12lbs per grow (3lbs per plant). He sells it all to one person for $2700 per lb so thats about 30k total from each harvest. Minus his power bill and the nutes etc he would probably be up 28k.
sorry for getting off-topic in ur thread gypsy... just one more question on this...
it sounded like this was an indoor grow. you said 4 month turn-over. 4 plants per crop... 3 lbs. per plant. is he running like (6) 1k bulbs then? i'd have a hard time imagining 3lbs. coming off one plant in 4 months if it were only a 1k bulb per plant. does he do some of the veg. in another room? is he using co2? hydro? i'm always ready for a paradigm shift
i'm still pondering ways of running less than 99. i'm just having a hard time imagining an average of 3 lbs. per plant under -any- indoor setup. 3 lbs. per plant ... you would be lucky to get that after having a plant outdoors for 8 months under full sunlight..

Four months is a long veg time, some strains might be able to pull off close to three pounds but you would have to do some topping. Three pounds is a really huge plant though.sorry for getting off-topic in ur thread gypsy... just one more question on this...
