How to improve my yields?

Sounds like your on the right track.
You should check out Hobbes thread..

He helped me out alot!

how long did you veg for?? longer veg time = bigger plants = bigger yield. but you have to keep them managable for your space or things will get overcrowded

id look into a foliar feed ( feeds through the leaves ), like the one im using called halo.

I currently use BMO Nutes which are organic, and water twice a week. I'm harvesting in 5 gallon pots in about a month, yield looks really week. What nutes and what are some experienced growers pulling in a 4x4x7 space under a 600 watt hps?

I am growing in a 3X4X7 space using a 600 watt to flower.

I started my seeds in Fox Farm Ocean Forest soil and 50% perlite in party cups under big CFL's, then I transplanted them to 1 gallon with the same 50/50 mix. Now I have transplanted them into 3 gallons 2/3rd FFOF 1/3 Perlite.

I Use the trio Grow Big, Tiger Bloom and Big Bloom and the solubles Open Besame, Beastie Blooms and Cha Ching. As needed by the plants.

Expecting a finish around New Years. I plan on taking a pound dried.

in that space with a 600hps and organic nutes i usually pull around 3-3.5oz per plant. thats a 4-5 weeks veg time.

in order to achieve good yields you need to FEED FEED FEED everywatering slowing upping the nutes
you need excellent air exchange meaning constant fresh air Vegging no less then 3 weeks

I cant stress enough about AIR and a lot of people just dismiss it as a given. Add some negative air pres and your off to the races.

On my next attempt, should I water more a week? Feed every watering , rather than just once a week? And add more air flow and foliar feeding?
