Willie's ebb & flow grow

8 plants of Bubblegum yielded me 5 ounces. 4 Querkle plants got me 2.5 ounces. Let me tell you, the buds looked beautiful, but the weight just isn't there. I know it's the T5 lights. I've wasted a whole year trying to prove the experts wrong, but they're the experts and I'm a first year grower. The HPS light ballast is in the mail, and the hood, light, fan, filter, and ducting are to come. I'm done blooming with T5's

I just started week 4, day 22 with my new garden under my brand new 1000 watts hps. I dont have photos tonight of my lovelies, maybe tomorrow. i have 10 plants in my 3' x 3' tray ( 4 Querkle, 5 Shiva Skunk, and 1 Bubblegum). it's running at 1350+/- ppm and pH is @ 6.1. I feed them 3 times a day. once in the morning for 20 minutes, again at midday for 10 minutes, and lastly, another 20 minute soaking in the afternoon. So far so good, I've already had to support some plants...I see the 2 different lighting systems as summer sun and winter sun. The summer sun being the HPS and winter being the T5. The T5 will grow you marijuana, hell it'll grow anything, but if you want good light penetration, HPS is the way to go.
