Shit happens....at least you have the sense to see a problem in decreasing yield. Alot of people would blame it on themselves/the strain instead of taking a look at the setup and seeing what can be upgraded or changed.

And if it wasnt for RIU....I would never have attempted a grow.

Hope RIU didnt make you lose focus though.

oh, it did. but that's on me. i made it thru the year being shelf supportive on my meds. so that goal was reached. i just keep thinking back at all those 1 ounce plants. i think if i fix the mildew issues then keep my light height at the correct level i could be back on track. oh, and all the other problems. i will start a journal when i am ready to get going. like i said it will be a few weeks. i may just finish the ones in there outside. i will have to wait a couple weeks before i put them out though. thank you everyone for your kind words.

we are losing sight of the goal.

i need to pull a lb off this room or it's over. 3/4 would do. all at once, within 2 - 3 months. i have a seperate veg room but can veg for a week or 2 under the HPS if need be.


or i could just buy a helicopter. FUCK YEAH!!!!

I am watching because this, too, is my goal - 3/4 lb twice per year.

fdd, question...When your yield decrease does your plant health decrease also? Or does your whole crop looks good till harvest? And when you feed your plants do you mix your nute in a res first then feed them all with the same nute?

they look like shit. all the leaves yellow and fall off. growth is stretched and sparse. plants look and feel dense then dry to fluffiness. i am in soil so i have no res. but i do mix a 2 gallon jug and it sits for several days before it all gets used. it has been know to develop a film on top while in the jug.

ever think about getting some footstools or like lap tables or whatever in there so you can get more closer to the floros?those upturned pots take up more room than is needed...

new light

maybe more li8ght jsut for the hell of it
order another lamp or two... or a light mover... then you can keep it close like you want but niot worry about the bleaching or burning...

ha!

fdd, you need to mix nutes as you need them; nutes sitting for several days will cause the salts to fallout, and the chems to break down. the plants and microbial life forms in the soil get the most out of the feed when its mixed within an hour of usage.

this will certainly make a difference. we're stepping up, raised light, 2oz...new bulb, 3oz...clean room, 3/4oz....fresh nutes, 4oz..... the chance at one day going hydro and saying fuck, if i'd have only known i could get a lb per plant every ten weeks if i'd gone dwc..........


priceless :D

i love you :mrgreen:

my babies grow to fast. they actually do pretty well for being so far away. i to an surprised. i do agree though. those pots take up a lot of room.

i am seriouly considering a light mover. i was just waiting for someone to tell me to get my chair out of there. :mrgreen: double the yield with the same amount of wattage. make it 3 x 6. will that work? i can't afford more power.:cry: it's a long story.
