Looking for input on my room

I am growing indoors, 15 weeks in veg, 10 flower. I have 7 lights in flower, 600w. I have 24 plants in flower. I harvested over the weekend, and averaged 1.75 zips per plant. The strain I harvested is called Blue Dream. The plants that are going into flower next are Chocolope, Eazy Rider and Sour Diesel. I would think I should be averaging more like 3 to 4 zips per plant at least. I am using general hydroponics Grow and Bloom nuts. The temps are at a constant 75 degrees. I am hoping for some more input on how to double my yield per plant, anyone?

Hmmmnnn.. 15 weeks in Veg sounds like a hella Time for them to get big enough to yield more than they did.. *scratches head* You say you have 7 lights, they are all 600w HPS?

What lights did you veg under?

1.75 oz per plant? im pullin 1 per plant avg with like 2-3 weeks veg time from clone.

i think you should definitely be getting more per plant, but those pots are small for that big of plant.. u running a 2-3 gallon pots?

I think so too!!!! yeah I think they are 2 gal. what would you reccomend?
 
Set Up looks Good, maybe 'BlueDream' is a low yielder?

(i would like to Sunbathe in your Flower room) :eyesmoke:

Maybe, I am thinking genetics is a poss prob. but in my last harvest ( my frist one) the most I got was 2.5 zips per plant, but most were closer to 2 zips.


Sunbathing isnt a bad idea in there, lol :)

Yeah, the pots were the first thing to jump out to me. Very small IMO.
How much nutrients are you giving it during flowering? Are you following the directions?

I would also recommend doing something about the walls. Atleast in the veg room. You should, at the very least, paint all the walls FLAT or MATTE white.

Yes I am following the directions for the nuts. thinking about adding molasses though, not sure how to do it thou, do I back off on the nuts? or?

So, how big should the pots be? can I use 5 gal ones from Home Depot? Also, the veg room has the reflective sheeting everywhere but that one wall, I will fix that thanks for pointing it out :)

your pot size is more than likely why. the 5 gal buckets will be good but that would be my minimum.

To be honest, I have had nothing but problems with GH nutes. I think GH nutes are for commercial growers who don't care about quality. I switched to House & Garden and will never look back. Topping, bigger pots, Roots Excelurator , beneficial microbes and fungi like Great White all should help your final yeild. Also don't go by days in flower, I like to flower up to 50% amber trichs.

I start with my nutrients at half strength and increase the dosage every time I feed. By the time I hit flush I am usually somewhere around double the directions. I use molasses every 3rd watering. I just add 1 tablespoon per gallon.

what does root excelurator do? I use great white every tie I transplant, should I use it more often?

I will start looking closer at the trichs.

What brand of nuts do you use? are you going by ppms?
 
i dont think someone is being entirely honest here.

400w floro's for veg, eh?
I am not sure what you mean. I did not build it I had a friend help me, and that is what he said. do you think there is a difference? There are 2 hooded lights over the 12 plants in the bigger veg area. there is one light fixture over the small veg, it has garage like flor lights.
