I really have a hard time believing someone is getting 1 1/4 lbs. and an ounce per 400 watt light. Less is more theory and all, i mean you can scrog a great bubbler and still be lucky to hit near a lb.

You adding silicon clay for weight and CO2 injection as well?

jolee, I am a scrogger for year's, your not blowing smoke, that is true fact's about growing with this method. Yield is more dictated by age and size of plant.

I must say that this low watt's per sq ft grow did give a impressive return and very nice loooking bud's, I to would be joyed with such return's. Thank you for sharing how you do it and how it turned for you.

Keep them garden's growing and jar's full.

Happy Holiday's

Caprichoso great thread, thanks for the LST info, very informative and really worthwhile adding to the number of ways marijuana can be grown for more efficiency.

I love that its such a flexible plant and that all of us can grow in so many ways.
Thanks for sharing. I enjoyed reading through the whole thread. Nice job.

Sweet Cindy ala Caprichoso

Sweet Cindy ala Caprichoso

I was fortunate enough to Smoke Test a previous batch of Caprichoso's Sweet Cindy and once again I had a chance to smoke Sweet Cindy (with only about or month or two of curing as opposed a more substantial cure consisting of a few months. Please be advised the testing was done approx. 3-4 months apart but in the end I felt this batch is more PRECIOUS! I love this smoke uplifting positive, bad for someone that likes to talk *people just get hyper and blab blab blab* some recreational smokers felt it was hazy, very delicious and exotic. Diddy (lil diddle) was blown away, super happy loves to mix it with strawberry cough and she gets quite dizzy off it! I loose balance feel elation joy happiness party attitude festive excitement and illusions of granduer! lol I really think that lil 400w pumped out some premo bud! on to the the report.....

Final Thoughts:
Someone undergoing chemo for the first time in their life smoked this weed and felt elation and joy which elluded her since she began that horrible ordeal. It was a miracle to see our friend really enjoy that smoke! We love it as well. Its great for social situations! I really enjoy watching others on this because it really activativates playfulness and trickyness in people. take it for what its worth :rolleyes: This smoke was not dense but the buds break up very well and surprisingly Cap used chem ferts and it was on par with pinebud x g13 grown with organic ferts IMHO. I think you have a great pheno Caprichoso a great heart and your cost saving methods still translate to potent and delicious herb. I swear I taste c99 in there somewhere :)

Caprichoso, that was a beautiful grow you had. Too bad I came at the end and couldn't see it progress in real time :(.

I've got a similar space, only 16 sqf though. 4'x4'. The room its in is 10'x7'. Check out the dividers I used. These things are the shit! 4'x8' foam boarding (weighs less than a pound maybe!!) and has refelective paper sheeting on the sides. A friend of mine who grows suggested this as he's used it several times in the past. It conducts none, if any heat for the most part in my opinion. This room isn't ventilated and has a 400w HPS in it, I keep the door cracked about 2-3 inches and 2 small house fans keep it under 85 degrees in there. Better ventilation will come soon, a little pressed for cash right now. Well, the point of this post is to just share my foam boards, I think that if more people knew about these that they would use them. They can picked up at Home Depot for $14.99 each. These things are perfect with people with only one room for veg and flower. 4ft 4 light 160w shoplight sits next to it. A little aluminum tape and black poly and no light gets into the chamber. Also you can simply cut a door out on 3 sides and pop it out, just give the piece that folds a little duck tape to keep it sterdy :D. Here are some pics.

Thanks for the fine grow and report. I agree with FF's analysis of the effects and like the fact that the overall taste was of spice because I have called her my cinnamon girl or my spice girl in the past. There should be one more catagory of effects and that is sexual desire as this is my aphrodesiac weed and more for the daytime than the night for those needing sleep. BOG

Shaolin- FYI i recently used that foam Polyisocyanurate?(spelling) from Dow Chemical and I swear its made me really sick. When that dust becomes airborne it wreaks havoc on your respiratory system :( I paid 10 bucks per sheet at home depot but at lowes I saw they had something similar that was like styrofoam (much safer). THe thing is with that material it breaks off so easily that its disgusting and grow rooms need some durability for many reasons especially because we are stoners and sometimes bump into things :) good luck man hope this helps

I vaccumed up the dust and taped the corners to no more could get off. Havn't found a problem with durability yet, and I've fallen into it twice already. The stuff falls over before it breaks in my experience. Either I work on my crops outside the room anyway. And even if it doe's break in the future, I'll just go buy another, they're so cheap!! I used to work construction friendlyfriend, so I know a bit about insulation :). And trust me, if some of the guys I worked with in construction can inhale the dust they do at work for 30 years + smoke cigarettes and pot, I'm sure the little dust that is still there won't hurt too much :p. Thanks for the suggestions though!
