600w patchwork ScrOG in soil – 25.3oz on a 16-week cycle

I have a 1.2x1.2x2.0m tent and a 0.9x0.5x1.6m tent (width, depth, height). The larger tent has a 600w HPS, which is cooled by a small desk fan mounted to the reflector. The smaller tent has a 4x55w fluorescent fixture. Each tent has its own extractor fan and carbon filter. There is just enough space in my growing area for both tents.

My entire grow is in soil. I have three mothers in the small tent – two white ice and a cali orange. The white ice plants are from the same batch of seeds but have different genetics. I also use the small tent to raise clones in small pots until they can be moved to the larger tent.

The large tent has nine plants in it. Each plant is in a 10L bucket that has a 30x30cm screen attached about 30cm above the top of the bucket. The plants form a patchwork ScrOG within the tent but can be moved separately.

I move all nine plants into the large tent at once, and let them fill their screens (and grow into their buckets) for around three weeks before switching to 12/12. Unfortunately, the small tent isn’t big enough for this, or I would try to create a perpetual harvest setup.

This particular grow took a little longer than normal because I let it go for 13 weeks in 12/12. It was 16 weeks from harvest to harvest, and the dry weight was 25.3oz. There were three plants of each strain and I got roughly the same yield from each plant.
 
That looks tasty, hows the smoke?
Thanks! I do really like the first Ice strain - it seems quite potent, has nice crystals, and tastes a bit like Jack Herer. I'm not growing he second Ice variety any more. The Cali is alright but not as orangey as I was hoping.

Here is a close-up of the Ice:
