    Harvest Pictures Grown Under 2 Cxa3070's

    i have found you multiply the weight times .22 and you will be very close 623 x.22=137.06 . i do not leave on stems so i am usually with in 5 % if i take the time to wet weigh the crop with this formula.i did not come up with the formula i read it online some where but have used it for years now.

    Harvest Pictures Grown Under 2 Cxa3070's

    623 wet should be around 137 grams dry.that is a nice harvest.if your wet weight included stems my numbers are wrong.

    i am talking about a 4 foot tall by 4 foot wide plant tied to a wall 1 layer thick(maybe 6 to 8 inches deep ) using efficient 1 or 3 watt leds or even the vero 10's in a light just as big as the screen within inches of the plant.instead of using 16 cxb chips why not a whole bunch of low wattage...

    depth is not zero but my vero 10 veg light penetrates more then 6 inches.the cobs penetrate more then a couple of feet.my screens are usually only 6 to 8 inches deep.i keep everything pretty much 1 layer.even my 5 year old commercially built 1 and 3 watt leds could have handled a 1 layer scrog...

    @Supra after seeing how there is no depth on ttystikk's plant,is there a lower power option to get the same ppfd as efficiently on the screen since that style of growing doe not need the penetration of the cxb and use alot more low power ones directly in front of said trellis?that is another of...

    i will be cleaning out the inside of the plant.i might try one from the top only and 1 surrounded by the same number of lights. i think even though there wont be the same ppfd with the lights spread around,the light from one side should penetrate to contribute on the other side and vs versa...

    i am planning on putting the same fencing you use on your trellis but wrap it around the plant.i am not sure what size the plant will end up.i have not tried this style of grow before. i want to try so i dont have to shape and and tie the plant up and just let it grow.it should veg faster...

    my temps usually dont go over 83 in the summer .the bare bulbs with a slow fan underneath blowing up to the carbon filter and fan works great. summer time i usually run top bulb at 600 and bottom at 450.in a bad heat wave i might have to run both at 450.

    how many lights to surround a 4 foot high well vegged bush say 4 foot wide. it is a plant so there is not a finite size.everything i read on here is based on flat grows. if i run 200 watts per side but the light from all sides can penetrate through that would be total over kill. the height is...
