You can say that again NT. He usually pops in with just the right suggestion when you need it. As long as all is well on his end and he's still smoking fine bud it's all good. Sure would like to have him around again though...

If you're out there Gauis, come play, we're making a mess of the sandbox! :wave:

Wow, That is a most impressive show. Are you enhancing the Co2? Does the trellis help to increase the yield? If so, how do you feel it helps? Would love to hear your input, thx for the inspiration.

Nobody has posted in awhile. Thanks gaiusmarius for the info on the WW. I am fond of the lady myself and started my first grow with it. I found this to be a great read. I found my way here reading up on root rot and brown algae problems. What a nice surprise to see my favorite lady flourishing. I will give your advice ago for my second grow for sure after nailing this brown algae problem. Thanks dude!

30 plants per 1.5 by 1 meters. with a 600 watt wide angle reflector hps over that space. by trimming do you mean harvest type trimming or trimming the plants before 12/12 for example? as i never do the later i can't tell you much about it. i try and keep my plants from getting so tall that i need to cut anything off the bottom. when all goes well my plants have useful buds from top to bottom.

Thats what I'm trying to learn to do. How do you go about keeping there height down gaiusmarius?

Good question hennesssy, mine got nearly six feet tall. I am hoping that the clones will be a little shorter than the ones from seed. I would like to know how tall his plants are as well.

I've been told clones stretch about 1/3 less then seed.

yield on that grow

hi there,

what was your yield/yield per watt, or total yield and how many 600 watt lamps did you use? what did you get per 600?

thank you,

how big are the coco slabs and how many plants can you fit in each slab? i am running 2 air cooled 600w lights over 3'x6' trays and considering trying this method out? how much yield could i get out of my 3'x6' trays with dual 600's? i am trying to figure out if i would be able to fit a full 60 plants in a 3'x6' tray (30 plants per 600w as you suggest). please let me know your thoughts...

thanks,
:joint:
