just finished my first indoor grow got it curing just now link in my sig

You'd be better off with 2 cabs and running it that way, every 2 months would be more logical than every month. Especially with a 250.

Your 2 plants that are almost done will take a loss in weight, with the 2 in mid flower. Not too many lumens in a 250, but best of luck to you and definitely share your results.

not really bothered about weight though as will have some every 4 weeks, plants are gonna be small and close together to get as much light as possible

Transferred the 11 MM clones to the cab yesterday and so far they are good.. there was a good bit of root growth in the rockwool starters so I am optimistic

. I have been kicking around the idea of switching my mothers to 12/12 under the 400 watt MH since I plan on taking a break in the spring.. thoughts?

What about the dry and cure time? Is that included with the every 4 weeks? If not, then you will harvest every 4 weeks then have to add dry/cure time too no?

lol..might have to move the CF to the middle of the room. Do think if I supplement with those huge CFL's the light will be good? They are 68 watts (300 equiv) soft white..

yeah i meant to say after th first 2 are dried and cured the next batch will be ready to be dried and cured, talking 16 weeks at least before the first batch though has been grown dried and cured thats why wanna have a perpetual grow going as i split my harvest with my mate

Are you growing normally or are you doing SoG? If you're looking for a quicker turn around go SoG dude. Keep mothers, take clones, veg for 2 weeks at least and throw into flower. Cuts off a good amount of Veg time and you will have all colas. Or do LST, either way will get you more yield than growing a plant normally.
