all plants are in flower! trying to hit a magical number here! i figure at least a qp a plant will put me at 2 lbs, but i would think that im going to get more then a qp on some of them, the somangos are pretty close to 5 feet tall and im blasting them with nutes
my nute line up is sensi bloom a and b, big bud, bud candy, nirvana, b-52, kushi kush, and root zone
just nuted the somangos with 5ml big bud, 4 ml bud candy, 1ml root zone, 3ml b52, 3ml nirvana, 5ml sensi a and b to each gallon of water then ph at 6.6 and ppms at 1000
5 somangos at day 30 will go 75 days
3 sugars at day 10 will go 55
and then 2 sugars of a dif pheno at 6 weeks, they only went in becuz they started flowering in veg

In my opinion I would use more plants. I like 40 every 1000watts.
Plus I prefer Stadium style growing, went from floor to stadiums and found less plants could maintain yeilds, so same number of girls always gave me more product
use co2, get rid of the A/C unit and switch to water cooling swamp fans http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B002B91QBA/ref=oss_product this with a fan hooked up to it would save crazy hydro and do better cooling, plus allow you to use co2, here's a video http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UmHp2ydAv1s&feature=related you can just hang it in your room does not need a ducting setup
get a dehumidifier to make enviro perfect, plus you can use this water to drip into your reservoir so you add mad oxygen to your reservoir, better than airstone,
these bulbs are the highest Lumen output in 1000watt HPS http://www.sunmastergrowlamps.com/SunmLamps.html super hps deluxe has a lumen output of 150,000

that's all folks

then think about topping your girls 10days before flower, this will add 2-3+ main shoots to your girls, giving more yeild guaranteed
 
Its hard to try to hit a qp per plant with a 1k and you have that many plants,

the way to nail it is the number of plants, lots of em,

how about 40 plants surrounding a 1k bulb given 1oz plant + / - experiences

it just blows my mind that its gunna take 3 hoods to cover the space 1 1k bulb covered vertical.. i have plants spread out a little bit i could fit them under 3 of the lights but i might as well use all 4 until i have another batch of plants to go in.. so as of now im going back to the perpetual thing where i am going to try and harvest 1 to 2 pounds every 2 weeks..
will be adding sweet cindy99 in 2 weeks, then dj shorts blueberry 2 weeks after that, then cali connections chem #4 x sfv og 2 weeks after that!

got some big nugs brewin !

Sounds overkill to me, get to know your system then add all the fancy stuff. I donno maybe i'm just cranky.

ONE way to nail it would be with high plant number. You can yield way above average with very limited plant number.

it just blows my mind that its gunna take 3 hoods to cover the space 1 1k bulb covered vertical.. i have plants spread out a little bit i could fit them under 3 of the lights but i might as well use all 4 until i have another batch of plants to go in.. so as of now im going back to the perpetual thing where i am going to try and harvest 1 to 2 pounds every 2 weeks..

Looks good man, new equipment is always fun. But damn if setting it up doesn't suck.

Wish ya the best mang. Now that you're using 4k you can smash the gpw barrier if ya stay vert. Just sayin :tiphat:

nice to see ya back SELFHEMPLOYED :tiphat:
i would do vert but i had a feeling heat was going to be a big issue.. i have to have the ac blowing on high to keep temps under 80.. i did pick up a temperature controler that kicks the ac on at 78 and brings it down to 73 when the lights are on and when the lights are off it kicks on at 70


Wow lol, you really outdid yourself with the upgrades. Looks like you're set for quiiite a while. :)

thanks man! i cant wait to see the results!
