I picked that up from Medi-man. He had the same problem and no matter what he did (bigger light, more feeding, etc) he kept getting same yield. once he started increasing his pot size, BLAMMO! significant increases every time he went up in pot size. im pretty sure he's stuck at 7 gal and i think subcool recently went up to 10 gal smart pots.

Okey so this one was actually done purely out of general ill-preparedness for a multi stage grow, and the wonton desire to pop a bean my buddy gave me one day.
The result-
This stretchy little lady, about 3 weeks old now. Been under 12/12 since i popped her the very first week i put the big girls into flowering.
The stretching was more a result of lack of space, and inadequate hight adjustment... But im hopeful. We'll see.

Use veg nutes when it's "vegging" then bloom nutes when it starts flowering, plants still need to be mature enough to flower which usually takes about 2-3 weeks, this is still veg time even at 12-12
Also this is two plants in a 3x3 done 12-12, another two would have fit but it would have been very tight with little to no training/trimming

I had three going, but 2 bag seed I had planted turned out to be male. They showed their sex 2 days ago and needless to say they have been fed to the cats. I have one burmese kush growing in dwc and is 2.5 weeks old. She is a feminized seed, but I've had one turn male on me, so we will see how it goes. My journal is in my sig.
Nothing exciting to show atm, but here she is currently.

I chopped my Durban Poison from Dutch Passion, of which only 1 was able to get passed week 4 with out showing balls(fem seeds) and it was totally gash.
The buds were really light and fluffy and light passed straight through them. The taste was abysmal but I'm under the assumption that the heat wave we had dried it out too quick and given how airy the buds were it makes sense. The plant while growing, was annoying, it just didn't want to grow at all. It ended up being 14inches tall in a 5 litre square pot using Canna Coco, the yield was laughable thanks to the size of the plant and the lack of density, it didn't produce many trichomes and it doesn't really get me high.
I feel that maybe had I not been using CFL's, I'd be a little less annoyed by it as it would at least have some density, and not be 1 calyx and 1 leaf per stem(exaggeration)
However... The Kandy Kush x Skunk#1 is fucking epic! Smells very sour but also very sweet, it's frosty and very strong and very quick setting in. I haven't chopped the whole plant yet though it's not quite ready, needs another week. But what I did, was instead of wasting all the durban poison by throwing it away or giving it to someone who's only a social smoker, I decided to grind it all up and put it into a small jar, then do the same with the sample branch I took from my Kandy Kush and mixed it all in together. It's made it quite a pleasant smoke. The smell and taste of the KK is so strong, that I don't really taste the dead grass of the Durban and I still get pretty damn high!

Sounds like you got bunk pheno, I've spent a lot of time in KZNatal and true Durban poison will get you high as fuck, although it doesn't taste great IMO.
Also true DP is pure sativa so should get massive and produce long tight nugs loaded with resin.
Well done with the Kandy kush x though, throw some pictures up and also some weights on what you pulled.

I think you're right to be fair. I only bought it because of a smoke I had, a friend brought some durban over to my place and we blazed until about 4am, it was absolutely incredible. Perhaps it is just because it's Dutch Passion? Or perhaps it's because I'm a terrible grower? Probably a mixture of all 3(bunk pheno included)
lol.Does anyone else have a version of Durban Poison in a femmed version? I'd like to try a few more as I know this strain can be a keeper.
I'll throw up some pics of the Kandy Kush when she's chopped and cured, as well as a full smoke report ^_^

Yea, you would think that it was pure indica instead of a hybrid.

Pssst hsfkush, I want to tell someone,friday was a week ago I decided move my light forward 1/4" help in cooling,yep
you know the rest,there was only 1 under it and the bulb is alright. It was almost done 2weeks or so still 2 weeks or so I guess shock at least. I tied it up with string,don't think I'm going to have to cut any off. I had just bought that bulb for $80 so I guess I'll choose to feel good like somebody is watching over me. GL & HY to ya

There is more that goes into yield beyond the light you have. You have strain and how well you dial in everything else.

thats why i said average
i use bagseeds still.. got hundreds if not thousands of them stored in a box in different containers all from different bags ive had all in different bags too so i dont get them mixed up... people think im crazy storing bagseeds but its seeds that can potentially be good bud... some of it was from good bud some wasnt...

I wish I would have been saving my bagseed from long ago, I just started doing it a few years back and haven't had many bags that I have actually bought. There is nothing wrong with bagseed and a good grower can make it some pretty good smoke. May not be the best, but most bagseed isn't even grown properly to begin with. I would say average would be around 2-4oz depending on environment.thats why i said average
