Thanks Green Cross!

He had the same question when he was in the planning stages. There seem to be various opinions on this, but he will not be rotating the plants unless someone can convince him otherwise. He read that rotating the plants can mess with a certain hormone that ultimately results in slower growth.

Default Yield? Do you think a 5lb first grow is possible?
permalink
My friend is interested in what you all think this set up will yield. Inspirations for this idea, such as Green Bastard from CC, had harvests of 6lbs+ in slightly larger rooms and growing in soil. They all had experience.

My friend's goal is to hit 1g/watt or just over 5lbs on his first try. What do you think? Any advice to help get him there?

Welcome Marni3d and Diggitydank420!

No promises as for yield, but the grow should be interesting nonetheless. Thanks for tagging along, and feel free to ask questions and comment as desired. I've gained a lot from knowledgeable people on this forum and am hoping to be able to give some back.

5lbs maybe but not with the plants you have there you'd actually want sativa's so they could grow tall and actually utilize the lights you have higher up. Your plants won't get that tall unless you cut the number of them more than in half or they will crowd eachother out, so you will never get much use if any from the lights at the top.

Here's my shitty version of your setup, using just one 1kw light. Notice it's only got 6 plants, even with 6 it was too crowded, could have been 4, ended up with 5 after a hermie.

Thanks for stopping by Oregonmeds; the plants look great!

I think you may have been mistaken: there are two levels with 15 plants each. First level of buckets are on the floor and then the second is on a series of shelves that go around the room at 4' from the floor. So in fact, He doesnt want tall sativas. The chocolope and Ppp will probably be lst'd or scrogged.

Also, he picked the easy ryder and white berry because of their slim profile which is perfect for a high density grow such as this.

Default How to Hang Cool Tubes
permalink
Here are some pics of how the cool tubes were hung and a couple root shots from the cloner. Plants in the cloner are going to be transplanted to buckets or kept as mothers.
