Well I have two theories on that. I think since I am flooding the table every 2 hours that they should probably get enough nutes. Also, since there are 16 per tray, I don't want them growing too much. My understanding of the dynamics of hydro is that you don't need large pots or medium, because they have constant or frequent access to nutrients. I just pulled my largest yield per plant in the smallest container I have ever used for my pk. I started in 7 gal smart pots. I figure I would try a run with the 1 gal pots and use it as a guage.
As for that damn gpw what goal, I will hit it eventually.

So you think you will keep your plant size smaller with the small pots or you will have the nutes available and the ability to get them as big as usual in the small pots? It kinda sounds like you said both. My only worry would be that you grow to a point and they stay small due to lack of root growth which wont be bad, but if this leads to less bud production also then theres a prob. Well once again Im glad to get the pleasure of watching the show and learning from you man.

You need more over lapping light to get that.

yo can you give your two cents here.

Cool shit bro. Load of top notch smoking gear. Calculates out to .7935gpw based off of 2000w of light with 3.5lbs of herb.

LOL, I guess I did kind of say two different things there. I meant to say that I think the plants will get as big usual with the readily available nutients, but will not veg them as long as usual due to the plant number. This will be another experiment for me, so I will know more in a couple months.

I am not sure of the question man. I have two 1000w lights on a mover over two 4x4' trays. 2000 watts to get 2000 grams is what I am talking about.

Actually I got 1636 grams which gives me .818 per watt. lol I could have trimmed up the pocorn and got closer, but still coming up short. I am actually happy with the yield given the quality, but always looking to improve ya know. Here a couple pics of the pocorn I didn't include in my total yeild, over 120 grams of each.

Purple Kush popcorn for hash and edibiles



OCD-pocorn

bam! look at all that medicine

another great run man. keep that shit coming and you know we'll all keep watching.

OMG OMG OMG. WOW man just got done reading through all of this and my mind blew Cuzzo. Shit i hope my colas come out to be as good as your popcorn nugs. I live in a state over and it is no where near pot friendly,so i can't even start to have a real setup.mine are outside and they where just some Mexican shwag Weed that happened to grow. The only nuts they got was super thrive lol and tap water but they grew to five and a half feet as of now and nice looking buds got a week or so left till i start cutting and attempting to do my first trimming and drying. So worried im gonna mess it up especially cause its so dry here. Well i guess im done stoned rambling lol sorry. But one day when i can legally grow and do a full setup guess who ill be searching for, that's right mister you lol.

Definetly a lot of popcorn, but that stuff didnt look that fluffy in the pics. Looked like actual buddage, but im sure your perspective is better than the pic we've seen. Great work and over.8gpw is still an accomplishment. Great work buddy. Whats going in there next?

LOL I'll smoke that popcorn any day.

Hey man, I lived on the east coast for several years and the best bud I could get my hands on wouldn't touch the shit I hash up now, so I feel your pain man. Sounds like you are going to have a grip of bud though soon.

Yea, it is actually little marble size buds when trimmed up. We trimmed them up a couple of runs, but I decided to use them for hash and oil going forward so anything small we throw in a seperate box when trimming. We throw the real light loose stuff in witht he fine trimmings. My plan was to hash up the tiny buds and use the fine trim for oil, but I just smoked a bowl with a couple of the pk pocorn and I might just keep that shit for smoking. I always throw away all the large trim, which I guess I could use for hash if I wanted to fuck with all that shit, but it seems like it would be a lot of work for not much hash.

The room is full of OCD now. I am actually veggin in the flower room for a week or two becuae I got behind with some revegging issues again. I kept a couple pk moms and two ocd moms though.

that does look like awfully nuggy popcorn.. im afraid some of that would have made it into my jars..

I usually smoke everything from top to bottom
But damn!!! with 1600 grams of top shelf, I'd also make edibles out of that

Yeah I think if I threw aside all my buds of that size my harvest would shrink dramatically

Guess that's it for this thread? Anyone still growing.g outside

Did you start flower yet???

Raider very nice grow...It must feel like a great accomplishment! Good for you, your hard work has paid off. Now on to bigger and better thangs

Sorry guys, I have been a slammed with work, cultivation, harvesting and life in general. I will tell you, I knew it would be fun trying to juggle outdoor and indoor, keep outdoor pests out of my room, trimming etc. Everyday when I get done outside I shower and then go to the inside girls. I haven't taken any pics in a while, I will work on that. My outdoor Super Bud lives up to the name. It is all my wife and I have been smoking for the last few days.

Last night was the first sleep night for the flowering ladies. I have noticed that the 8 plants in the hydroton look greener and healthier than the rest of the plants in hygromite. They all look healthy, but I can tell a slight difference. I topped them 5 days ago and they are just 8-10" tall. This will be the shortest vegged grow I have done yet, so I am looking forward to see the diffence in yeild per plant with the short veg and more plants. I ran 18 last time, this time there are 32 (16 per tray). Last run was 7 week Veg, this time 10 day veg. So it will a good comparison of methods.

So to catch yoiu up on this run. I am flooding my trays every 2 hours during lights for 15 mins and every 4 hours during lights off. I used Hygromite ( lava rocks) for medium, but ran out after 24 plants were potted. So, I put the last 8 in hydroton. That is one tray of 16 plants in hygromite and the other split 8 in hygromite and 8 in hydroton. Nutes at 800 ppms, CO2 at 1000ppms,Reservior temps -68 deg, Room ambient temps/RH (Lights on 78-80 deg, 50% RH) (Lights out 72-74 deg, 55% RH). I have kept two OCD and two PK as mothers for the next run. I am trying to decide if I am going to do a solo pk run, run both the ocd and pk, or pop a couple pinapple espress seeds. I will have to decide soon. lol
I oedered some Eagle 20, which is a systemic pm treatment. I am have treated the girls with Excel LG another systemic treatment. I also bought a sulfer burner. I really want to stay ahead of pm since it will be getting more humid and wet outside. I was stoked on using the burner until I read that it can clog up the sensors on the CO2 monitor and that if the sulfer gets into the reserviors it can be toxic to the plants. So now I am thinking I will just use the preventative methods and if it does pop up I will use the burner. If anyone has dealt with pm and/or experience with the burners in a hydro set-up, please share your experience.
Anyway, I am on a Super Bud High, which makes me ramble. lol Almost seems like it is more than 40% sativa. So I will stop rambling for now and try and get some pics up soon.

All you'll need is the Eagle20 for pm.
one application and it completely wipes pm out. havent seen any since

Thanks NB, I had heard the same thing from some Bay Area growers that deal with it alot. It was a pain in the ass to order though, becouse most sites would not ship it to CA. I found it on Ebay. I am glad to hear it worked for so well for you. What appllication rate did you use?

Yea I had to have it shipped from FL. did you order through a store on ebay named tampa ag? think its the same people.

but I diluted 1/2 tsp per gal. one bottle's going to last for daaays

One more bay area grower here with nothin but great things to say about my experience with eagle 20. One application about 8 months ago and nothing since. Eagle 20 and floramite will stay in my grow room always just in case. I think the 70 pint dehumidifier helps to.
