Hello fellow growers I'm in need of some help. I really need to increase the yield of my grows i always run a 5 plant run my last grow I only got an ounce and a half per plant and it's just not cutting it.nutrients for veg are mother plant a+b also hygrozyme, nytrozyme and always cal/mag that's it for vegetation. For light I have 600 watt hps and 1000 what bulb sitting waiting for flower all hortilux bulbs what can I do to get close to a pant as possible. Thanks in advance

first thing is strain, some strains just don't grow that much bud indoor,like real og's
next is the size of the plant, the bigger, the more bud.
then would be grow room and how dialed in you are.
notice NONE of those have to do with nutrients? that's because, as long as the plant gets what it needs, no MORE, no LESS. it will produce according to the qualifications listed above.

Check all resources you provide match what your plant needs, light, air, temps, rh, c02, nutrients, water. Your plant will grow to its weakest resource, you get to decide what that is and accept your subpar results for the choice.

I've grown every cup winner from all time for starters, and hundreds more varieties additionally, some hundreds of times over.
I find any variety has the potential to yield pounds for example if all resources are provided, and get this....the plant is vegged long enough.
veg longer, veg to a size you can manage keeping flowering stretch considered. For instance a garbage can grow may not be suitable for your space or available resources, so maybe a five gallon pail is better. start in a cup, move to a one gallon, and go to a five pail, top it, train it or not, when its your size flower it. A healthy vegged female 18 inches tall/45 days left untrained yields a solid 4 ounces of large dried trimmed buds along with four others under a 1k light here in 60-70 days of flowering. It takes some dialing in to veg fast and flower correctly but after achieved its second nature indoor cultivation.

I wouldnt use any of those items you mention except the bulbs, both of them in flower along with a quality
nutrient program that has everything you need. AN, DM etc... I grew an entire cycle with only AN mother earth tea, grow and flower
, 20 bucks a bottle, was better than the gh ends
what are you growing in? hand water/feed? how often? what ppm in veg? flower?ph? temps? rh? c02?
air movement? flowering cycle? veg time?

Cool I mean I have a wall unit ac that runs the hole time my light is on with a air duct to channel the air into my tent which is a 4x8 and I have a 8 inch vertex on my carbon filter for filtering and moving air. I beg in much smaller pots then move to bigger pots for flower o and strain I'm running now is jack Herer my last run was white widow which I've been growing for 5 + years it's the strain I learned how to grow with

Will post pictures in a while

Hey thanks for the reply I don't usually veg all that long which is most likely my issue. I'm growing in the pro mix mp and fox farm ocean forest usually go half and half And in not using co2 and water around 6.0 to 6.5 ph never have checked ppm

get some fresh air exchange, good dirt mix btw,
what chart/directions are you using to mix your nutrients?

You'll find a product called Organicare, amazon, grow store, etc. following the direction on the package has given me the best cheapest all around results I ever had, no other additives but water needed. works great with your soil mix too.


before flower, while in veg, allow the newly transplanted girl to lay down her roots in the new container, instead of directly to flower for good results.

And yes I usually will wait two weeks in their bigger pots before throwing them into flower but I'm thinking I just need to go with bigger pots and veg for much longer. I do have some 3 gal pots I may use this run it's just a lot more soil and that stuff is not cheap lol. And I basically go 10 ml of mother plant a+b for a good base and 5ml of hygroyme and nytrozyme also 5 to 10 ml of cal mag that's all I use for veg and for my seedling I like half that

you done stripped off all the bud sites, no wonder your yields suck.
I lollipoped all the bottom sites that usually only produce airy bud so I figured I would get rid of it now I plan on vegging much longer. I personally have never got good bug from the bottom of my plant was looking to focus all energy to the top

what is all the cal mag for?

those pics are good,, those plants must recover for a bigger yield , before they go to flower.

pot size? I dunno

this is grown in a one gallon pot, so....

Also this is the fist time I have done this I don't usually. Normally just a quick single top then I get rid of all branches below where I top them leave it alone untile it's done no light penetrating down there

you should lollipop the bottom few a couple weeks into flower. if you are not getting good lower buds, it's because your lighting and growing techniques.

Looks like a longer vegg some Propper topping and training ....such as LST....would improve your yield quite a bit IMO ....GL

You've got plenty of good guys helping you here ....that's just my opinion

And butt holes and opinions are two things everyone has .....that's my opinion.....il wait to share my butt hole until I know you a little better.
