That is some super lookin ladies, havent had colas like that since my JH and BD runs. Now I am doing a hellashiously crazy 4 tent all on diff cycles and strains. Might let a male pollinate some and do a few of one strain. I am praying i can keep it pest free.
Wicked, 4 x tents & all at diff stages! Keen alright thatd be like a full time job wouldn't it? Good on u bro post sme pics ill be keen to check em out maybe 1 day ill aspire to that sort of number ive run 2 tents which was ok but certain stages i was a busy boy haha good luck

yeah it is a pain in the ass but it is all micro, 3 2x4 tents and one 3x3, I have 2 plants in the 3x3 and they completely fill 75 percent of the tent in only 3 gal pots. I am amazed, I should snap some photos as they are starting to lean now and they wont look as pretty soon. hahhaha.
 
Your ballast doesn't put out 1100 watts I don't give a shit what the setting, the manual, or the joker at the hydro store says. Just chill and listen a second.. Your plants can only take up so much light before you are wasting it.. In a 6x6 area you don't need 3 600s. I don't believe you will pull anymore nug than if you only used 2. With that being said, you aren't going to listen to me. But it's ok, learn for yourself.
Saying that you know how to Top, fim, and lst , a plant , which you could easily do to any plant, doesn't mean that you are some grand master grower. You could easily do this to a rose bush.
Saying that your trying to get 8 ounces from a plant that you don't plan on topping or lst leads me to believe you don't know what you are talking about. Are you going to be using co2 in this room?
First off Patrick... Who the fuck do you think you are with your bad attitude and childish comments.... how the fuck do you know what my ballast can produce, are you an electronic engineer capable of designing, manufacturing and producing such electrical equipment...?. in a word NO i didn't think so, So secondly fuck you. as for not producing any more weight with three 600's than running two.. has there ever been a side by side grow of clones of my strain ran side by side in these circumstances?.. no.. Will there ever be? no.. so for you narrow minded shit head comments about will I take your advice.. no I wont, im not claiming and never have claimed to be some sort of guru or grand master grower, its simple enough techniques what some people find very challenging but hey ho Patrick nothings to complicated for you I guess Mr Narrow Minded Electrical Engineering Hydroponic Grandmaster Guru Grower Dick. I asked a simple question as I was unsure of the answer but clearly you are in no position to answer anything. I also feel sorry for your children when they try to learn from you and the example you give. With all that being said I wish your body a happy new year just a shame your brain is so small it has to suffer. Id also like to thank everyone else who was nice enough to kindly reply and provide me with pictures showing me that a 6 ounce plant is achievable at three feet. :)

sorry satived didnt mean to offend anyone, however it seems when someone has their head up their ass they go around this forum to innocent fellow growers with their bad narrow minded attitude giving people greif... if no one experimented and tried new things this world would be a very boring place. even if i did run the three lights im hurting no one apart from my electric bill.....

Mate if u wana use all that light then use it and don't let anyone put u off it, the key is having the right amounts of the right parts of the spectrum. Plus intensity = density = mass = yield.
Sure it is a lot of light but I've seen setups in the same space with 4 600s that pull a gpw (sog and scrog though),

P.s I am currently running at 120w of hid lighting per square foot and couldn't be happier.

Considering prices of electricity. Most growers calculate how well they did based off gram per watt, and of course quality.. My know how tells me that 3 600s in a 6x6 is going to produce shit when viewed as grams per watt . But waste your money I don't give a damn what you think. My negativity was directed towards your narrow minded comments. I didn't mean it offensively.. I felt you came off as someone who knows what they're doing, and let's be honest, you don't or you wouldn't be asking questions like this.
You can hate on me all you want... But I can grow some good nug, the proof is in the pudding. So if I'm giving you advise, if your not going to take it into consideration I don't know what it is your doing here. Only reason I stick around this site is because I had a whole lot of trouble when I first started growing. Bit off way more than I could chew.. And certain individuals on this forum helped me go from terrible to home runs.. So I like to think I pay it forward. I am an asshole, but I'm an asshole who knows what he's talking about. Cheers

One thing i have not noticed someone say is the weight to watt. You can only get what watts your putting out by rule. if you have a 1000w then a very advanced grower will get Approx 1000 grams 35 55 oz. That's it. Do the math with what people say they use in watts towards there yields.
You super crop/mainline/lst/hst and everything else is to get the MAX out of your plants and LIGHTS. YOUR LIGHTS have everything to do with yields.. Your girls have it in them, its our job to get it out. period. If you are off a little it shows. Ph/nutes/lights/air and you know the rest. When someone tells me they got 3 lbs out of a 400w.. i know its BS I know you are ball parking a lb or so only unless you count stems and seeds, then the world the limit for you lol
i am 52 and have been growing since i was 14. I was taught in Northern California and this is my life. I do not want to bust anyone bubble but the facts are the facts. Advance growers will pull approx 1 to 1 1/2 grams a watt. Most pull 1/2 to 3/4 a watt.

Light 24/7 20/4 18/6 will always pull controversy. Plants grow steadily under 24. But do the plants need to convert this into sugar which will transfer faster in the darkness. taking Co2 day and letting it out at night.. (basic elementary stuff) so is this the building blocks? Is this why your plants do what some call the stretch the first couple weeks growing...

You are going to do what you feel you need to do. Maybe do the research or wing it... its ALL good Your girls are resilient but the flower is delicate. get your girls healthy and happy first and try anything after. Health plants are Happy Patients lol

Hopefully this helps the newbie who thinks hes going to get 10 lbs out of his 10 plants with a 1000w light

Peace out.

This is close to same thing I was trying to get across . I disagree that 3 lamps under a 6x6 is efficient though considering were talking grams per watt. I think 1800 grams would be a far fetched goal under a 6x6 canopy .

An advance grower can MAX out there Watt in Yeilds but thats it. There is no way possible you can get more then what your watts are. That's pure science and unless you are GOD thats it. Now you can max it out by Lst/hst/mainlining and everything else we do. Thats why we do it. You train your plants to get the most out of your LIGHTS. that's it. If you have maxed out your area in the grow you can do airponics and everything else to get what YOUR LIGHTS ARE PUTTING OUT.
Thats why if you are not running 600w or above Co2 does not even help. There has to be a certain amout exposing the plant or it can not even take it in. The pours will not open up enough to absorb it. Your lights are such a big factor it's not funny.
Our job is to do the best we can. we can only do it by listening and experimenting. Trying new things and taking the bad with the good.You would notice in grafting how much the lights matter.
So no one needs to hate anyone. What works for someone in the tropics will not work for someone growing in high altitudes. Someone growing the same strain who picks it during milk instead of amber will get a different high. The factors are so great.. but always remember
LIGHTS LIGHTS LIGHTS They ARE what you can count on for your yields if everything else is dialed in.

Sorry patrick i just dont see what point you are trying to make here..... you say three 600's isnt going to produce shit when viewed as grams per watt.. how is that even logical? please tell me the reasons for this way of thinking if you would be so kind.. i never once made a narrow minded comment before you posted the first comment?. Also id like to say how can you say i dont know what im doing based on the fact i asked this "stupid question". And you never once gave me any "advice" you TOLD me what was what and if i wasnt willing to take your so called "advice" i could basicly stick it up my arse and be on my way. One thing you are most certainly correct about Patrick is you are an asshole you are right, weither you know what you are talking about or not.

So hat you are saying dbdweller is that with 1000 watts in this tent.. if everything is dialed in correctly that i would produce less yield than with an extra two 600 watts? thanks for the info aswell friend.
