I mean I get what you're saying but to be fair they were upfront that it's their first grow. At least we're not looking at 40 plant corpses tied to sticks or something.

Sorry ya this is my first grow and I’m very excited can you guys estimate how much will I harvest I’m at 1 month and 5 days looks like will be ready in 6 weeks by how it’s been growing but again first time it’s 6 lights 1000 watt each light has 8 plants except 2 has 2 plants here goes a couple pics of the whole crop just different section and like one or 2 pics of the top one or to lights so you guys can see how they look from close up

Looks like some revegging if you started from seed, light leak or light achedule is messed up. And whats your floor temperature? Those bags should be on grates for ventilation under them.

I’ll be good with that

More veg, add three weeks and choose a method of canopy control and those numbers are doable and beyond
Just a good test run
Not thrilled I’m sure but it takes time to dial in a room and you’ll get there

Hang in there and you will have some good bud , I will wager on it. We all got to start somewhere. Give 'er a couple more weeks and those tops should fill in.

Your attitude is positive and I can tell you are going to learn quick. Its all relative anyway (Einstein).

Cripe sakes, you are already there by most standards on this here planet. Many would be glad to to be in your shoes.............the hard part is over- and your curiosity will carry you from here.

Looks like Sativa of some sort . Interesting

Genetics, genetics, genetics! One pack of good seeds could change everythin! Always invest in goooood seeds or a known cut

My advice is less is more. Control the environment (keep your temps and humidity in check) and grow healthy plants. However you choose to feed don’t over do it. Start small and work your way into how much feed each can take. Use the K.I.S.S method.


Shoot for healthy lush plants and the yields will come. Top shelf product will beat out yield all day. When you dial it in you can than learn to maximize yield and quantity.

As someone else said genetics are important too. Finding winner phenos isn’t always gonna happen. Just b/c you buy “x” sees from “x” breeder don’t mean you will find something elite. Finding something that hits all the right things isn’t easy.

Smell/taste/terps, look/frost/trick coverage, bud density, plant structure, pest/disease resistance, nanners, intersex, all play a part in what’s good and what’s not. Finding a plant that excels in all categories takes time and patience.

Ok I'll say 35-40 oz.

Please don't make any pricey adjustments. Next time run x plants under each light. Train em.

Get those cords up up and away! Couple of 2' racks, or build a structure you can use for power strips and trellising.

Looks like soil, is it soil? No bottles in pics except what I think is laundry detergent. .
What nutes are you using?
The way you grow (organic, coco) determines much.

U have a veg room?
Where will you get your genetics?

We will get you over 5 next time. Don't trip on these fools.

Bless Up

Hey for a first grow the guy hasn't done too bad.

Just saying…I personally wouldn’t recommend starting out with such a large operation off the get.

Things are much easier to manage and learn on a smaller scale. Controlling the temps and humidity with that many lights and being a first grow too would be difficult.

I'd never have done what he did. But we have seen worse by more experienced.

Guilty!!!

Why don't you tell us about your environment(temps,humidity) room size
how wide, tall each plant is and the room size, this will give us a much better idea
the strain would also help

I like how you decided to grow and went straight to 6000 Watts that's awesome good on you.

Hardest part is waiting when all you want to do is chop em down, if you can't wait and take them early they can shrink a lot. Things you do wrong (and right) can affect the finishing times so a predetermined flowering length may not be the best strategy.

I think you can do a little better on maximizing your canopy space. If you do you could probably be pulling 6-8lbs on new bulbs from that room.

This was a stupid choice, I could probably get more bud under 0ne light than the OP can under all 6 lights, experience is the most important thing.
Look at all the wasted space and does the OP know how much space the light cover would cover, some growers use a 1kw DE in a 4ft x 4ft (16ft2)
when it could cover a 5ft x 5ft (25ft2) that's about 40% more canopy, for example.

Yet I like the fact he just went for it. Straight in the deep end lol

I didn't bother to mention it but my thoughts were set up a 600w and learn to grow 1st before continuing with a full room.

I mean I wouldn't want to pay for wasted light. Maybe that's why they're hoping it's 5lbs, so they can at least cover the electric bill lol

You have a nice size room. FIRST clean the shit outta that room looks filthy. You don't need such big pots are those 10 gallons. I use 3 gallon and do fine even do 5 if you want. Line them up under the lights and all around they look just thrown everywhere with that many lights you should be able to have more plants keep them small and bushy you will gve out more than those stretched out. Keep that room clean clean clean.

This is a picture of a half assed diagram of my old man's 1000w hps hydro setup.
The + symbols is a 1000w hps hanging vertically off the ceiling. He pulls 4-5 lbs off 4 large plants.
