Check out dirt farmers 5 pound plant thread. Amazing what can be done under the sun. Harvest shots are on page 9.

my good friends brother does 10/10/3 raised beds and gets 15 per. He gets them big before they go outside, but still. He is in the full California sun and plants just thrive there. He gets a special soil mix made and delivered. You need a backhoe for this type of work, or an army of migrant farmers.

Yes, I searched "OPOP" in thread title and displayed by threads. I remembered being inspired by those threads years ago. I must say though that I would really like to see a "Indoor OPOP" thread.
 
easy to do, very often over complicated...remember K.I.S.S


it can be done with two plants, start with a decent indica, that is known to yield well. Veg for at least 2 months minimum(or longer your choice) mostly under the sun or 1000w MH for 18on/6off...

do some Low Stress Training or SCROG...I prefer LST. Make sure the plants are transplanted accordingly eventually being in 5 gallon buckets for at least a good portion of the veg/flower time.

Flower under 1x 1000w HPS -- Make sure the plants never have any deficiency's as this will hinder growth and waste time. Add molasses at least the last 3 weeks..some people use it through out VEG and FLOWER with great results...

I have seen crops where the grower yielded more with less...two plants, under a 1000w should be no problem to yield a lb dry..thats on the lazy side too if you compare gram per watt ratios...

I knew this one cat that did 1 plant, 1 lb dry, 400w HPS !!!!

its possible. stay stoned my friends.

Hey three questions, firstly.. what is KISS?

Also, what is the benefit with 18-6 light regiment compared to 24 hr light?

and last, mollasses does not need to be checked for ph, right? How much should I use per gallon of water? Thanks!

Keep It Simple Stupid. a.k.a less is more.

18/6 gives the plants time to rest IMHO. they grow leaves and use food during the day and grow roots and seek water during the dark.

molasses 1 TBSP MAX per gallon. it drops the pH so use sparingly. start with 1-2 teaspoons and go from there.
 
Here's 10...
