That is an extremely hard question to answer with the information given. How long has the lamp been used? How old is the equipment? Is the light new or used? If you have an android phone there are apps available that can give a rough lux number.

I did it like week 8, but next grow will do it from the start. just make sure you can cool the hood well. I plan on growing mostly in winter and using the cold outside air to cool my hood. You can control height by number of weeks vegging and/or topping. I topped once after the 5th node.

I say give your plan a shot. that's how I started my first time too. just for thought, I eventually tied my light to the top of the tent and the plants reached for the light. as I went from 600-750-1000-1200 on the dimmer for the ballast the plants stretched up to the light and then as they got...

Also make sure there isn't anything preventing the light from going all the way up to the top supports. I didn't and it was a super hassle to adjust it, the plants were too unstable to move around! Was so nervous adjusting anything after 2 months of growth.

Pictures or it didn't happen? Are you 12? Do you also only read picture books too? Instead of coming on aggressive for no reason, next time try just asking for pictures. Grammar and sentence structure aside, I didn't find it all that challenging to follow the OP's thoughts.

That was how I was before my harvest. now I hopefully have plenty to last till my next winter grow

It's smoking great! Really just used a little bubbler or pipe for the last decade, just started rolling joints and am loving it. The smoke is smooth, no cough or roughness even to the end of the joint (with paper tip of course)

Guess I could post these here too...

I did top them all once. was a very minor topping. when the 5th and 6th nodes were growing out the very top, when they were still together, I pulled the 5th node apart and just plucked off the 6th node. After doing this all of the plants lower nodes shot up until each plant had 10 nodes forming...

you are 100% correct. I did almost no training or pruning. next time i'll get those bushes spread out and probably fill out a screen. oh yeah and stake my main cola's and trim off the lower branch colas. so much to learn

Next time i'll go for only 4 plants but train them better. my goal is to get the most I can outta my 4'x4' area.

42-45" from top of soil. they were in 5 gallon cloth pots.

End weight was 544 grams of bud.

It was actually Colorado dispensary bud. Found like 1 per ounce of this one strain. The tent was an absolute overgrown mess lol. Had to crawl to reach the back plants. Vegged for 45 days and flowered for 56. Some tops were only 6" from the glass.

Thanks for the help man, just trying to post what my experience has been, forgot how trendy bashing has become.

I appreciate you taking the them to read the entire thread and for reading through my entire grow diary over at growdiaries.com. I mean all that time researching must have been exhausting! But seriously the dry weight was something like 544g and 22+grams of dry ice sift. I don't really care of...

Bad idea in my opinion to jar up big buds. Trimmed them up all the way to the top into small buds.

You and me both brother! it might be gorilla glue x unknown, since that was one of the strains I have bought recently.

The burping introduces oxygen to the jar, which the microbes feed on in order to break down the chlorophyll and other plant matter.

I had a very strong hay smell after my first harvest. I trimmed pretty close to the buds, so lots of sugar leaf trimming, which created the cut grass smell. After drying the smell was significantly reduced. I also jarred my buds early and had to dump them out often. I also left them lids off for...
