I have no idea what my yields would be if I used a 1000. I actually don't like 1000s as I think they're best utilized in setups other than where the light is static and overhead. 1000s will also grow bigger flowers and I already need to watch out for mold in the headbuds grown with my 600s.20 ounces seems very good for a 600w. What do you think your yield would be if you veged and flowered under 1000w mh and 1000w hps respectively? Also how big is your flood table and how much space is between your plants? Thanks
...in promix.Hey HB you say you run 9 plants under the 600w in your footprint?
You counted correctly.No with your 6 inch cubes in your flood tray.
It's strain-dependent of course but it's pretty easy to land in the 18-21 ounce range in my hydro setup. In promix, 2-3 ounces per plant is average I suppose (18-24 ounces as a group) but I've been testing the use of more promix in the pots to see how that affects yields given the same amount of veg time and same plant height as they move into flower. In promix though, I never 'mono crop' as I'm not a cash cropper so it's not unusual to have 9 different strains under 1 light. My goal is not so much focused on yield as it is keeping the plants healthy and in their own space. My Kalis get tall and can sometime lean over two other plants if they're not tied up. I just pulled down some Ethiopian landrace that grew past my lights so again, this is a hobby for me that my patients benefit from. I'm interested in the science behind what we do, I'm always pushing the limits of quality and it's fun looking for those exotic strains that will rip you to the moon.Alas my eyes didn't deceive me. So are your hydro plants pulling the 20 ounces? I thought you said just over 2 ozs a plant but hell that could have been 2yrs ago when you originally posted. I read through your journals in the past 2 days so I may be confused.
I 'use' clones from a mother that came from a regular serious seeds pack. Nothing against fem'd beans but I prefer regular beans.Do you use regular or feminized serious seeds ak47?
I use DG from seed/clone to harvest. The only time I use any 'root products' are when I clone. I like KLN and Clonex.HB do you use dyna grow for rooted clones and seedlings or a root stimulater or b vitamin supplement? Also would you recomend the aqua flakes or dyna for the most complete base with minimal need for supplements and ease of use?
My AK stretched for just over 2 weeks..a lot the first then it slowedHow long does the ak-47 stretch last?
It doesn't stretch all that much in promix but it'll come close to doubling in height in hydro. Three weeks for the stretch maybe?How long does the ak-47 stretch last?
It depends on your wattage.Thanks HB, if I flipped at 11in and they are about 16in at day 15 do you think that I should have flipped when they were a little bigger? And do you think this will have a negative impact on yield?
Under 1000w ushioIt depends on your wattage.
