good luck man i hope that works.
they wer scattrered around the area in no perticular order...1 was at the back 2 at the front and 1 more at the bak!!Could it be that where they were in with your other plants that they were not getting any wind/breeze on them, coupled with some light getting on them during the 12 hr dark may have made them week!!! if those 4 plant say were at the back of the grow area or hidden behind some of the other plants and not getting any breeze this could have made them weaker than the others!!! Making them go floppy??!!
just a opinon!! hope it helps in some way!!!
Good luck mate!!!
If you've got'em in a cubby-like space, then it sounds like you've got yourself a great veg/clone cab that can at least maximize the light you have. The smaller the space, the more light reflectivity. Probably a pain in the A for you to get in there, but your plants'll love it. Especially if you manage to get some reflectivity in there.its like a cubby hole which i have to crawl in2.... its really pissin me off, but the plan is to keep them here till i can take them ova 2 12/12.
soil is too messy and hydro loox complicated!!
what kind of system is everybody using, what would u recommend for my 2nd grow?
also is it better 2 do 4 plants in 10l pots under a 600w hps
or
2 plants in 20l pots under a 600w hps ??
i mean would i get more off 2 plants getting maximum light or 4 getting...wateva they would get?????
1ce again + reps 4 u my friend..For what you're looking to do, hydro Ebb'n Flow SOG is the way to go. Not sure about getting 8-9oz every month with a 600w though. Probably. Ebb'n Flow is the laziest way of hydro and requires very little work. The initial set up gets expensive though. Those flood and drain tables are killers unfortunately.
There was another way that I am actually contemplating as well using a SOG and coco with just 2L soda bottles as hempy buckets.
Here's a link to the grow that I'll be referencing: https://www.rollitup.org/grow-journals/210779-400-watt-2-liter-hempy.html (example pic of what he does below)
That's under just a 400wHPS and he averages about 1.5oz per row. If staggering for harvest one row per week, that comes out to be about 7oz. That was using perlite as a medium. I feel it could produce more in a coco medium.
With your 600w, given that it can cover a greater area than a 400w, you could add probably another 2 rows/columns to this. Theoretically, you might be able to pull off greater than 8-9oz using the numbers this grower got.
But it's gonna be alot of plants. You'd need prolly 3 mothers at least to take cuttings from each week. Then, after rooted, those plants would have to be vegged at least 2 weeks, maybe more/less depending on the size of the cuttings you could afford to take. Then, you are also going through the harvesting process each week. Shouldn't be too difficult as those plants will be lollipopped, but still quite a share of work.
But that'd pretty much cover the 8-9oz goal you're looking for.
There's probably a bunch of other perpetual set ups that could get you to the 8-9oz mark monthly. Search around the grow journals and you'll prolly find a bunch'a stuff.
