Round 2 Vertical: 2400 watts, Hydro AND Soil: Agent Orange, Trainwreck, Sour Diesel

what 300 grams for 1 600 watt hps thats almost a pound.. qp=114 x 3= 342 grams. which is just about 3/4 of a pound.. I have two 400mh's and a 600 hps and I would be lucky to get a pound off that set up... Now if I had the same strains outside.. 30 plants I would get a ungodly amount
yeah i was about to say.

i think he means gpw

cause 2 watts per gram isnt that impressive

but this is vertical haha wattage is 5 times as effective because you non only use the bottom but the sides as well. in theory one 600 watt hps covers 5 times as many plants so if the same light used for a normal grow producing .5 grams per watt is used in theory would produce 2.5 grams per watt if the shelves house as many plants as the floor.......... this is just my guess at what vertical does for your yeilds anyone with more experience please correct me if im wrong

for first time growers 1/2 gpw is not bad but much more can be had

I have two 400mh's and a 600 hps and I would be lucky to get a pound off that set up...
a pound could be had on accident whith them lights

Now if I had the same strains outside.. 30 plants I would get a ungodly amount
now you are compareing football to baseball

well vertical is not 5x as effective light wise... light wise it is probably more like 30 percent more effective than a flat garden, but where you make up is that the coverage just about quadruples...

and .5 is not bad at all, but good growers can get 1lb per 600w in a flat garden

Looking good in there.. starting to show some discoloration and deforming so i know they are starting to canna-balize haha. Get em to pump out the last bit of weight and resin and they will be ready for the chop here in about 5-8 days or so.. im starting to see the first amber trichs so i will start the straight water tomorrow.

you can see the poor sour D that got stuck in there all stretchy on the top row.. i donno if i will continue to try and nute it or just say fuck it and chop the bitch down.. still debating :wall:

anyways here are the pics from day 53.. i wish i could get some better pics but there just isnt many spaces i can stick my camera in LOL

thanks guys, starting to see a few more amber trichs on the agent, those are realllllly close.. i may let em go a few more days and take em down with the wrecks... not sure yet but i will start taking pics when i get em all trimmed up n pretty for ya haha
 
Your tdub has more leaves than mine. I think i counted 11 to 13 leaves... but still true to low leave count per bud... man you did everything right.. Im going to try this in my next indoor grow...

what size of pump are you using? 1000 + gph?

and how big is your res?

Did you make that hydro system yourself or purchase it somewhere and craft it together? Genius and i would love to mimic this. If you already stated it just tell me and i'll look but i'm stoned and 28 pages is a buzz kill. Amazing though, ridiculously amazing.

so flo were do you rate the agent orange compared to the trainwreck and sour d
What do you mean? smoke? potency? yield? smell?

It is certainly much more fluffy than the trainwreck.. the wreck is just soild rock hard nugs, like you can barely squeeze em. The agent has larger nugs, more traditional cola formations, but again is not as dense.. I am not sure which one will yield more, or which one smokes better.. get back to me in a week or so haha. As far as smell goes, they are both very different. They both have a strong citrus smell.. the wreck smells like rotten lemon pine sol and just reeeaks.. it is the dominant smell in the room, despite being less in numbers. the agent smells like that orange cream soda.. i cant remember what its called but it smells like that with a hint of spice. they both smell GREAT!

Masterofgenetics.. It is the real deal train wreck i can assure you.. its straight from hboldt.. I ordered some ak47 seeds and some other stuff so i am going to try to combine ak and wreck, or the aent and ak.. call it wreck 47 or agent 47 hehe. i want to get the flavor and aroma and combine it with some higher yielding strains

also my pump is the largest one that eco makes... i cant remember what it is.. i can look it up if you want... and my res is believe it or not only 40 gallons.. so i find myself filling it up daily and changing it out constantly. its a pain in the ass but i think the fresh changes bring out the best.

and whitenugz, yes I did build it myself from common products from home depot and lowes type stores. the only things i had to buy seperately was the watering system which i bought from an irrigation supply company, and the white buckets, pumps and res, which i got from the hydro store you can see how i built it in this thread
