Thanks for trying to help out, I appreciate it. Hydro wouldn't work for me because I run a perpetual in soil. This is how I do it:
Take clones, make them last 4 weeks. Usually fully done in 3 weeks but I keep them in shape for 1 more. Then off to the veg room for 4 weeks in 1 gallon pots in soil mix under 450 watt hps. That's 8 full weeks and now the flower rooms are done. Take those down and now move the veg rooms to the flower rooms transplanted to 2 gallon pots. By this time the next batch of clones are ready and they move into the empty veg rooms etc etc etc...
I get anywhere from 12 to 14 z's under the 600. I know hydro would yield a lot more but I would have to change the whole method and perpetual probably wouldn't work. I can't do 1k's because I have no way to cool those and my electric bill would soar to the moon.
I think it may be genetics too. Some types just don't yield well but my Lemon Hashplant from Bodhi does well and the LVTK did pretty damn good too. Hard to compete here now because all the stuff coming from the west coast cheap as hell. $100 ounces left and right of decent shit killing off all the growers. Many people here just want cheap shit and don't care what it is as long as they get high. There are still a few who appreciate top shelf stuff, but wont pay top shelf money. The way of the world I guess
