Lollipop Yield.

[aeroponics]

damn that is beautiful.. the plan i came up with was to get 3 more of my aeroflow 20 systems and have a harvest every 2 weeks while using the Lollipop. method i planned on getting at least a pound of WW every 2 weeks. what do you think??

 

[billybob88]

have you ever grown before?

 

[aeroponics]

first grow on wk 5 of flower. all is going great. got 5 WW mothers in DWC.. it doesnt seem all that hard to me. just so many different nutes... and grow methods.

 

[billybob88]

the only way to increase yeilds is skill and experience. but good luck with ur perpetual. sounds fun. i would set up screens over each 20site thing u have. that would be killer!

wow what a waste...


im pretty sure you could get that yeild without spending all that on them aeroflows






and i would think aero would be a pain in sog

 

[aeroponics]

any suggestions ????

You said you have (what was it 9x4 feet)

I think the basic rule is a g per watt. so if you have a 600w system them you could get 600g, 1000w = 1000g.

The longer you allow them to vegg the bigger they will be in the final stage. How much hight space do you have ie 8'.?

If you are going to lp then you will get around 1/2 oz per plant (+-) with 600w system, the trick will be to grow many many(30+) plants that are only around 8"-12" tall when they go into flowering. You will remove all lower leaves and branches so you only have the main top cola, this will also give you a very tight and dense product. Doing this will allow you to gave such a large amount of plants. You can use solo cups or 4x4/6x6" rockwool cubes.

Good luck and hope this helped

Lollipop method- 5 to 6 grams a plant, average.

It will take two months or more to grow any plant. You will need 6 different areas to get product out every two weeks.

1. Mother plants
2. cloned plants
3. Weeks 1 and 2
4. Weeks 3 and 4
5. weeks 5 and 6
6. weeks 7 and 8

then dry time one to two weeks
and also curing time up to 4 months for the good stuff.


So you will just take X amount of plants and put them into each cycle at the correct time.

hahah 5 g.

sounds complicated.

Hey guy, looked at a lollipop lately? The technique, which I have done, gives one little top nug and is designed to use when height is a serious limitation. Or you want to have a cool looking micro-grow.

Or you use fluorescents exclusively in a shelf garden, a lollipop factory.

what are you talking about dude?

I thought you removed only a 1/3 of the lower branches... and also all the journals i have seen said they yeilded at least 3/4 of an ounce for every plant.

 

[LoganSmith]

Its very easy once you have it down. The only thing changing is the plants moving from one table to the next.

I will be able to move the whole top of the table with all of the plants and just move it to the next table.

The tops of my tables are only 22" x 14" so I can place up to 16 solo cups in each one.
I was thinking of useing rockwook cubes but the solo cups are 10 bucks for 250. and I can reuse them.

This sounds like SOG. The lollipop method I've used, and seen pictures of, is more of a novelty than a real means of production. Unless you have a shelf garden setup, use fluorescents exclusively, except for your mothers, and grow shitloads of single, around 8 inch tall, buds. Can be 3 grams, can be 10 grams. The dude was asking for an average and seemed to be getting dicked around.

The only pain in the ass is drilling the drainage holes, but much easier to find than pots, all the time. They also fit 18 to a rectangular planting tray almost perfectly.

I leave only the main area so I can cram more plants together. I leave fan leaves On the top 1/2 of the plant.

They are prob. useing a 1000w system. Like I said eariler the more light the bigger y.

 

[LoganSmith]

Sorry yes its sog,

I take a 3/4" spade bit and drill through 10 cups at a time, easy.

And for the table it is not a normal flood table its just a plastic unit that I bought from wal* and made into a the system that I'm using.

I gave an answer of 1g per 1w, this is the goal. Not a ave. once again your ave. will change so there is no ave. This is why I told him around 1/2 oz (+-). This plant will be around 1 1/2' to 2 1/2' tall after its done.

The other big factor is going to be stand of the plant.
