its not a hard and fast rule but its what i found the ratio to be roughly. i had 9 under my 600w and it was pulling 3-4 oz each i put 12 plants under it and the yield looks shoddy. so much so that i took 2 out a week early and bought a 300w enviro for the under canopy.

4 under that plus the enviro should give you good results! you doing a jhournal or drop some pics in this thread?!

happy growing man
:bigjoint:
cant be bothered with a journal , just post some pics here of the results. this is what im getting with the lights i got now..........,the first pic was under enviros only...

DG&T you get 3oz/4oz of each plant? 9x3=27oz off a 600w? Wow, thats a good yeild im growing in a 8x4ft room with 2x600w and id be happy to pull that weight in total.

if you wash it up you find the true weight...............
Ive done a 'proper' wash not some bicarb crack cook up and got 2g out of 5. that was a few years ago and that was suppose to be 'good shit'. Although now you here of stuff less than 10% i suppose relatively it was.

Wots Good RIU UK...

Ive just bought a grow tent, never used one before and would like to no if my set up looks alright to you guys.

Im useing a Aurora pro 600 watt light with a built in timer in the balace, a air extractor, a small fan and a flood and drain 4 pot system with clay pebbles which ive never used before, ive always used soil.

My Light is 24inch`s above the tops of the plants, the lights not burning them but i dont want them to stretch, whats the ideal distance im not 100% sure??

Ive only used 2 of the 4 pots from my flood and drain system because i dont think my babies will have enough space to grow once there in the bloom stage because they double in size does this look alright or should i put another 2 in? Would i yeild more off 2 or 4 in the same amout of space?.

Should i topp my babies now or should i wait? ive had them uder the light for 5 days, i can see the 4th and 5th node already.???

Uk growers- Is VITALINK a good nute or not? this was recomended to me and i was told it works well with clay pebbles im not sure but have used it anyway....

Ive been leaving my flood and drain pump on for about 1hour twice a day is this ok??
My Temp when light is ON is about 30c - 35c max and 20c when light is OFF. Humidity is about 50% when water pump is on and can fall to about 28% max when it goes off. Ive included a few pics so you can see what im talking about if anyone has any usefull tips for me there welcome, i`ll keep you updated.... Bless:bigjoint::leaf:

I POSTED THIS LAST MONTH, IVE NOW PUT THEM ON 12/12 CYCLE 12 DAYS AGO THEY ARE ABOUT 3 FEET TALL AND PROPA BUSHY 2 1/2 FEET WIDE ALL ROUND, THEY WERE ON 18/6 FOR 4 WEEKS I ENDED UP LEAVING WATER PUMP ON 24 HOURS A DAY COZ WHEN I TURNED IT OFF ROOTS WENT ALL DRY AND PLANT WENT LIMP, I TOPPED THEM AND I NOW HAVE 2 MAIN HEADS ON EACH NOT 1. I WILL POST YOU GUYS SOME PICS IF YOU WANT TO SEE THE PROGRESS LET ME NO. :bigjoint:
Hey TRIGGA......

Vitalink is as good as any other.

24 inches is fine.

Thats a dripper system not a flood and drain. WILMA good little simple system.

Dont let your temperature get to 35 though that is way to hot try keep it below 30. 28 would be better maximum.

You wont need to lieave the pump on all day! 4x15min is fine.

What strain you growing.

Good luck

chines guy just got busted up here recently. they said he had £200,000 worth of plants( but you know the score with the papers and all that shit when it comes to cost, fuck me, the still think people pay £20 for an e) he got 39 months. my mate got caught about 6 weeks ago with 25 plants all at different stages and he's been charged with intent to supply but is fairly confident it'll get dropped to personal use charge. its not that common round here to get busted, only if ur grassed up. the cops arent really out chasing for it, too much trouble chasing charlie and smack dealers i think.

Yeah One Bust I saw on the news was valued at 140K and I agree about the charlie and smack dealers getting most of the attention which is probably deserved! Thats why know one and i mean no one knows where my grow is. and 39 months is easy when u take a third off and spend the remaining time in the gym or on the xbox lol

Hey DG+T, Dura72, Del66666, thanks guys, it's been fun reading all about your charlie adventures. Nothings like it was in the old dayz, Disco Biscuits, White Doves, Gorbachovs, Purple Ohms, and class A's that done what they said on the tin!!!

Peace, DST

Hey guys, saw this thread and thought, why not join in!?
UK FTW :P
Just started my first grow today funnily enough, well, had it germing for a day and a half, got it in the rockwool now.
I'm doing 1 White Widow, bubbleponics system, although new to growing weed, while in uni basically all I did was research MJ and growing stuff, so hopefully my plant will produce a fair yield :)
Wish me luck :P
Nice to see a few UK growers on here ^_^
