How do you increase potency while flowering?

So I've been growing for a little bit now and got the growing under control and have been learning LST and have been doing good. The strains I've been growing are Cheese and Blue Dream. I'm using a 750 watt HPS with two duct fans pushing air in and one duct fan pulling air out. The temp stays between 75 & 85 degrees and the humidity is low. The Cheese comes out frosty and very good. The blue yields great but isn't strong at all. I was wondering if there is anything I can do to increase the potency of my blue dream. I currently have four in flower. Three are about 8 1/2 weeks into flower and one is two weeks into flowering. Any advice?

If the other one is doing well I would say it is genetic. The strain you have might not be rocking high thc. I would shake it up and try a different strain. If you have 100 seeds and are locked into that strain try changing nute brands?? Shrug

Well one of the blue dreams that are flowering is the mother cause I'm done with it. I was reading and found some info saying that you can have 10 seeds of the same strain and they all will be different from one another. It said some of the deference's could be color, yield, potency etc. So I figured I would plant the rest of the seeds and take clones from them to flower. Figure out if its worth keeping

What light bulb? Get a brand new one that should increase yield at least. Do you put lights on side or under canopy? Do you use foliar sprays or beneficial microbes? Take you dont use Co2?

Ps. Like you said every seed is different do make sure to clone each until you figure out your prized pheno and get rid of the rest. Obv by putting into flower.

Ya. I think you have a low thc mother. Just make sure to label and track all clones until you find a good mother

As for feeding/watering. I water a little bit each day or as needed and feed every other watering unless it shows signs of over feeding. I stop feeding nutes two weeks before harvesting and I put it in complete darkness for two days before harvesting. I use a 4' x 4' x 80" grow tent with a 750 watt HPS under canopy on a 13 hour dark & 11 hour light schedule.

Im new to this by i was told keeping the humidity as low as possible leading up to harvest can enhance resin production. Is this true?

Bodhi. Join the Bodhi bandwagon. You should at least look over the thread Bodhi seeds thread. I wouldn't try to read all 1000 pages tho. But top quality strains. Reg seeds. 11 per pack. 77$ or less a pack. And it's standard to buy 2 get 1 free. Look up silver mountain. Gogi OG. Blueberry hash plant. Tiger melon. They all look amazing! And he develops new insane strains. Puts them thru testing. And then sells if they are good. No junk strains.

If your from us order from great Lakes genetics. James bean co. Greenlineorganicssb. All from US. no customs.

Well at the time I was doing like 20 in a 4x4 so I was only getting like a zip and a half but they were nice colas if you topped those out and let em veg for 6 or 7 weeks you'd definitely get over a qp per plant. First rate smoke too

OP
Are you using the same res for feeding all your plants? Do they all get the same amount each?
Is there any differences in leaf colour from the different strains?
I'm asking this because different strains use different amounts of feed and you maybe feeding your cheese to the required amount and underfeeding your blues (if the leaves are much lighter this will likely be the case).
