You should easily double your yields per watt used if you have vegged that much longer and transplanted as you should. Your use of the nutes and dark energy should give you a nice yield. How is the lifesaver plant doing? BOG

I really cant guess for the info given so far...

Getting to know the system that you are useing and strains is the key to optimizing your grow... stick to 1 strain for atleast 1 year, have other testers if you like, but learn about the plants...

Diff strains deliver diff yields as much as using different methods. I wouldnt worry too much since its not something youll always do. I cant remember the last time I weighed a yield from a crop. I dont even own a scale. [ I also have 2kw in flower and 800 in veg ]

:pimp3: plant genetics & numbers directly affect yield. until you work with a mother plant your yield will always be at the whim of the beans. :beat-dead either veg longer, or flower sooner & pot the clones in smaller pots & stuff all you can under those lights. hope this helps. :pimp3:

mother room and flower room is what you need...Spending all that money on lights..without knowing a serious plan of attack will cost alot

I get 1 pound off of one 600w.......90 clones veged for 14 days...planted in the flower room and ready in 50 days...

It just seems like too much for too little plants..

:pimp3: switch those fluros out for a 400 mh & you will be amazed at the turn around time. i have 4(thats right 4) large moms under a pl 400 & root 30 clones every 2 weeks under 1 400. think of the posibilities. :chin: :chin: :chin: :pimp3:keep those fluros for your CLONES. :bat:

Hey meduser, sounds like you have a nice grow room.
Have you tried growing clone to clone?
I root clones from strains I have, then vegg them out for about a month and a half to 2 max, then I take cuttings and pop them in a DIY Bubble cloner I built thanks to 2 OG & TC members, Ninja & syco2...

During the beginning of the last week in veg I prune lower branches off (about 4 to 6 inches up from the bottom.
With some of my ladies I top them after about 3 to 4 weeks of vegging, but lately I have been practicing bending and using cords to help keep the canopy even..
LST seems to be a good way to even out the canopy, and maxamise yields in restricted space, as well as in a big grow room....

Seems like you are good to go though, just wanted to help if I could...

Happy growing!!

for sure need to get more light to your moms...you'll never get big cuttings off of floros..

Yes Hawaii is great...But why do you think it would be hard?...bugs temps?..I got a big 1900 btu a/c that works just fine...cooltube lights..and bugs?..1 gallon of water, 1 tbs neem oil ,1 tbls dish soap folar spray every two weeks...never had a bug prob....If everyone did the same they would.nt eather...:)..

I run a 1000hps on a mover in a 4x8 grow box i built. for my moms..i have 7 right now and i get 160 cuttings every two weeks..If the cutting is not atleast 8 to 9 inches i wont even mess with it....i cut branches and root them...makes my soil beds nice and paces with fat rooted clones...i have to do it this way for i harvest every two weeks...and plant veged clones every two weeks...

More light on the moms will save you....

Aloha..

Nice looking clones n ladies issack!!

I find watt for watt CFL's come kinda close to HID's for vegging, but HID's always win hands down...
I have 569 Watts for vegg, a mix of 160 W fluro tubes (4 40 W four foot ones) a 150 W HPS, and the rest is a mix of 42 & 43 W CFL's, along with one 45 W CFL...

They work well for me to vegg...

I need to post updates of my vegging ladies, they look pretty good :)
