advice on setup????/ puuleeezzzeee

Currently I have 2 600 hps over a 4x9 area with 14 plants in 3 gallon pots with the following soil mix.

1 part humus
1 part worm castings
1 part perlite
1 part vermiculite
1/2 tablespoon hydrated lime

Im using florabloom,liquid karma,hygrozyme,superthrive, just started using a product called sweet, a carbo?and at the end koolbloom.

a 6" fantech for intake and a 4" fantech w/carbon filter for exhaust



ANy advice is greatly apreciated, the first grow netted 11 Ozers of OKeedokke shiz... it got hot,"over 105" during flower a few times. and only had 1 600 onna mover for first 2/3 of flower
there was 32 plants of same strain in 1 gallon pots..

feeding schedule, watering schedule advice would be awesome...

thanks :)

Hello...

Well,.. feeding and watering eh...

I say start growing and give to the plant what it shows it needs. Soil contains enough food for a few weeks, so forget about feeding them so eary...


Nobody can really tell you when will you have to water your plants because that depends on too may factors everybody has.. tempertarure, humdity, soil type, plant size etc... Just to give you general picture, most people do it on 3 days...

Take care,
Agnes

I water every 3-4 days. A good technique is to have a, in your case 3 gallon pot(or whatever ur growing in), filled with just DRY soil then you can lift ur plant a lil and compare the weight you should be able to tell by that. I'd like to see some pics sounds like a pretty decent setup but you obviously have some kinks to work out 11 ounces is what like 316 or so grams? With 2 600watters you should be seeing a better turn out than that. Thats .25g/w

edit: just re-read that you only had 1, 600 w for the first 2/3rds of flower you prolly didn't do too bad you just need to keep those temps in check.

I x-planted them from 1 gals with a lil diff soil mix, uni-grow cactus mix and perlite.
Im hoping it doesnt shock them or take to long to get jiggy into the new love mix..
Im 3 weeks into flower..
 
Yeah, the worst part is, I just got a nice PH meter and figured id been feeding them 7.0 or higher ph water for the last grow and 2 weeks into flower but now.... 6.5 is my goal unless otherwise noted..

thanks

I would just make both fans exhaust, and use a large passive intake. Why do you want one blowing in harder then it's getting sucked out?
 
Cause of where it is, where the heat settles during the day.. I need to suck the air outta my house 'climate controled via air contioning' to make it kosher.. Well, my only exhaust outlet, outta the roof is a 3" pipe.. Its basically a fart fan outlet from a bathroom..

Edit.. My 6" intake is onna fan controller throttled WAY down..

Sounds like you are doing very well on your own to me , the only thing I see wrong is that you have to find away to get the temp down and be able to burn both 600W'ers.

If you can do that you will have some GREAT yields! :D

I bought a water meter at Walmart, about 5 bucks, tells you just when to water, works great for me.

Right now temps are OK. w/ the a/c on itll be low 70's on average w/ the lights off. With the lights on its high 70's to low 80's. Both 600's have been on the whole time .. I just have low yeilding strain.. Great insane smoke, stankier than most.. but a low yeilder..

thanks
