That's super cropping. I thought I had gone too far on my last one but it recovered and ended up massive

2 totally different methods I dont think supercroping is going to be what your looking for
the scrog is an easy way to go but requires a lil extra veg time to fill out the entire screen but is a killer way to grow a grip of flower
I kinda do a mix of scrog and sea of green lots of plants so my veg is short and then I top the heck out of them and tie all the tops off to bamboo then I try to select only the thick healthy branches that will hold big buds and I cut all of the smaller branches that I know wont produce the cloas im looking for

i've been in veg now for like 4 weeks Ima change em to 12/12 tomorrow :S worried about the next power bill Im hoping if i flip em to 12/12 now ill get atleast 10oz for troubles :S still saving my self money if i only get 8!! 300$ per oz here Next grow im going to get 16 square pots Male seeds really do complicate shiiit when u only have 1 tent.

ya

Like 7 males ive had i fucking so fucking anygry im never growing weed again
fucking disgusting so fucking angry
i have like2 females

thats a difficult one there well you can veg a lil longer and try to fill out the tent that way

heck maybe you will hit a great pheno out of the couple female's you have and be able to keep running it

2 pounds was a bit of an unrealistic expectation I gotta say even though the plants look nice they weren't big enough to make that much bud, you could still get a couple ounces out of this though even counting the lost males but you might want to look into either getting fem seed or keeping a mother and taking clones in future though to save you the hassle of having to deal with males.

Updated Into flowing stage now not sure how long maybe 3 weels \

hard to see anything with the hps lights

anyone know what ill yeild roughly
theres 5 females i think

No one can really predict it mate, theres so many variables. Anywhere between 10 and 20oz if you have 5 females

Chill out mate, why not try getting some feminised seeds next run, or some clones? Other than the unfortunate luck with the males you look like you are doing a nice job!
What lights are you using?

Update 3 lights now back left is 400w hps back right is 600w Front light is 250w MH

Looks good man, nice setup! And yeah you are still going to yield a fair bit, easily get 10ounce there, probably a lot more.
Maybe next time look into training techniques. Search for LBH's 4 way LST. It's a fantastic tutorial and works great.
I sort of used this technique on my first grow and yielded 7.5 ounce from one plant under 250w HPS.

reco,getting hps when it comes to the flowering phase, get a table over them now .
If pot size is a problem them i would get some cat litter trays with cori board cut out so the pot slides in,just makes ure you can get a compressor in there to the bottoms in the trays via air rings,or even air stones.this will mean the roots will continue to grow big but still been in the small pots.great way of growing its a little like auto pot growing but hand feeding unless you add ball cots to the trays it easy done.or just try and get some auto pots and then you can just keep your eye on the plants,i still check them but only if the two have not drunk 15 litre of water/nutes over night i know there is a blockage some where

tyke

10 Ounce would be sick :S but i dont know its not some sick strain ive got like 300+ seeds from a grow i did out doors last season. Id like know more about what strain i have in there anyway to tell.

Ill update with another short clip when the lights turn on.

Into flowering now one plant is alot better than the others the other where transplanted more and one is grown just is regular potting mix nothing added the biggest one :S and the other have alot of horse manure through the potting mix

I wish they where all the size of the big one the smaller plants seem to have alot less budding going will they get thicker? hows my grow looking what can i improve for next time and just starting out :S

Any neuts i can buy that will really boost the yeild? been using dutch master gold flower but its almost

harvesting soon next 3-4 weeks
