veg room:
4 bulb t5 mixed bulbs (2 3k and 2 65k)
earth juice grow, bloom, micro and catalyst

i transferred the blue mystics into a 3 gal dwc setup, my aero unit is too full. i added the first dose of earth juice at half strength (15 ml of grow, 5ml of bloom, 5 ml of micro and 5 ml of catalyst) that was mixed into apprx 2.5 gallons.

^couple of new pics of the blue mystics^

the following pics are scrogging by hand (not using a screen)
its a pretty easy way to get more weight but this is very difficult to do, heres how:
every day push the branches down, i know right, sounds impossible, be careful your plants will die if you look at them wrong or if you arent wearing a yellow shirt and will die if you dont have your temps set to 72.3495684 degrees F.

took some pics of the blue mystics, all showing female, they also had their first haircut this morn.b4hrcut.jpghaircut.jpg

now that that's out of the way i need to answer this question.
every day i am asked the grand-daddy question of them all, how do i get more weight? so i ask to see some pics or have them explain what it is they are doing and nine times out of ten they are either too lazy to commit to training the plants or they are beginners without enough know how to get big big yields. if you do the scrog by hand technique you should pull a quarter pound per plant, minimum. by combining scrog with topping big weights are easy.

quick explanation of topping: cut just above where two individual branches come off main stem (red) that makes the two little branches the new mains (blue), top again now you have 4, once more = 8 tops, its exponential growth so 2,4,8,16,32,64,128,256
(do not cut as low as my markings are on the pic, they are for info purposes) ideally you would cut another node higher

if you want to do the lazy mans way like me, just push your branches down for the first 2-4 weeks, ideally your plant will look like an up-side-down pyramid.inverted.jpg
