Buddy with very similar setup has WAY higher leaf to calyx ratio than I do using same cuts??

We're out in South Africa, using a locally made salt 3 part nute. He tries to replicate my grows almost exactly, we're on the same watering schedule, same nutrient dosages, same medium (70/30 coco/perl), with the same cuts, both under quantum boards, we're both in tents.

Our grows are almost identical, yet he is achieving way different results to me.

Sorry, but you are not robots in closed environments with controlled variables. There is NO way you are doing everything identically. Even something small that you may be overlooking that he isn't doing.

Your plants compared to your buddies look like ph issues

Without a doubt, you're right! There are small differences in our grows, but I honestly don't think that would make such a huge difference tbh.

I am getting respectable yields and he's pulling a few grams a plant.. Something else is wrong here.

relative humidity in my rooms vary from one end of the building to the other
Without identical environmental situations it is hard to be positive the issue
But if I had to guess I would say he is watering improperly possibly due to different Rh
It will slow growth

Hi everyone!

As per the title, my buddy is running a very similar setup to me and we're running exactly the same clones, nutrients and medium.

He's got a 1.2m tent with 400W+ quantum boards (same as me), 150mm extraction, and we're both running the same nutrient line, medium and the same clones.
Yet all of his plants are growing way more leafy smaller buds compared to mine

anyone ran into this issue and figured it out??

Light spectrum. Higher kelvin rating means less node stretch. So 5000K will be more compact than 3000K. But the lower specs is better for flower.

Maybe your grow is on a ley line( jk jk) . I read this crazy book called the magic of findhorn a long time ago about it.

Is your friend watering to about the same runoff as you are? I think something like watering practices might make the difference, that's something that would be easy to overlook when trying to mimic someone else's grow. Ph as well, maybe they are off just a bit or don't swing it around and you do.
