i cant see how you can get more bud with low wattage and longer veg if you fill out the space. you are limited with your light. 60W cant make 300g no matter what. buds in a too large space become popcorn buds, and plant stretches
Silly.. If i vegged and trained for 20 weeks, and then flowered my harvest would be huge. If i did limited veg with the same plant it would not produce the same under the same light. If you can prove otherwise, by all means go ahead..
you can get some strange efficiencies with lower wattage than optimal for growing good buds with high yields. quality will obviously drop in a low wattage case, but total plant material could be higher per watt...not more grams per harvest though, just the efficiency of it improves relative to wattage. maybe it's best to think about how much light gets wasted in each case.
soo you are saying you can make more with 20 weeks and 60W of light than with 4weeks of veg and same light?
I did not leave out the veg time.
That a SF-2000 quantum board u have hanging there?
I have 3x SF4000 lights over a 8x4 grow area. That was 8 plants with lighting levels @ 1400μmol. The lights were at 90% power. My current grow is only 4 plants in living soil. In a 8x3 scrog set up. Currently running the lights are set at 1250μmol or 60% power. My weight will be less but my gr/watt should still be good because of 30% drop in power being used.
1400!? GOOD LORD at what distance? 24"?
I sorta forget but I think it was about 30". But honestly there is no need to run that high even with CO². The 1250μmol I am currently running is probably the highest I'll ever go again. Btw 1250μmol is only at the tips of my tallest colas. Most of my canopy is in the 800-1100μmol range.
There you go, Lmao.
