You said you are growing NFT. I am unexperienced in this but I would guess that the angle of the tables is gonna determine the exposure time of the nutrient film with your roots. Are your angles the same on the tables?

How far are your lights from the canopy? aircooled?

crop them wen ready and yeah metres fella there good nice healthy clones they go straight in the tanks making sure everything is ok i always clean my grow room with a spray i bought on growell website give 10 mil of a and b aqua vega (canna) i veg em for how ever long i want them to be size and so on but usually 2 weeks just over nurseing them on the way trimming and stuff pulling and shit then fip them i leave the veg food in there for about 3 to 4 days b4 i go flower food then basically keep an eye on them and raiseing the food as they get bigger watching out for burns and so on they always look lovely dark proper green colour no burns spots browness yellowness or nothing normally finish on about 30 mil at this stage there all tied and bound up trained and sturdy have noticed them stems and that thick tho i give them same steriods 30 mil pk 13/14 might drop the flower food to 25 mil yeah so hit em with the steriods for seven days but that never does a bloody thing never swell up in my eyes then flush for 7 to 10 days then hang em up untill i feel i want to usaully 4 5 days i have a de hu running why there drying the light is always at a safe distance from the tips but im not shore about if theres right distances but its never to close just so the light is spread around the tent i have a carbon filter inside the tent hanging up have a little 6 inch fan running ive got a 4 inch intake and a 6 inch outake the roots always hand down in the resevoir i dont put a air pump down there bcas my friend dont seem to think it makes much diffrence just little bonus i use regenaroot and microbial if anything starts happinig to wipe it out basically im mimicking my friends grow just diffrent location and he manages tp pull 20 oz plus

I don't quite understand, Do you have a NFT system or plants in DWC? coz if DWC air pumps make a huge difference helping develop massive root systems and huge stems as the micro bubbles splash the roots creating a mist, it also moves and oxygenates the water so it's not stale. it'd be my favorite growing method but the hassles and demand of nutes make me only wanna have 4 plants xD.... Nevertheless it doesn't matter if your grow is a mimic of your friends as every grow room is different and you'll have to cope with that either way. What you seem to be needing is to tame is your environment and find a growing method that really suits you (20oz out of 600W ain't that good anyways), since I understand you've got all the basics already covered. For example, leave diameter is related to relative humidity and also the stigmata opens as allowed by temps., So look into that. Also you don't need to grow 4 plants... you could place 16+ in that space with a real NTF system, even make it NFT/AERO like stinkybud's one. My point is, if you're not happy with what you have, then evolve!

Makes me wonder if your water chemistry is different than your buddies too. Maybe you have really hard water or something along those lines too.

maps. U are obviously new if you think that 20 ounces is not a good yield for 600 watts. What do you inject your plants with heavy metal or somethin?

You're right it's a great average for conventional growers, but you can get so much more. Join the vertical section for more info. Again my bad

i have nft i used to do buckets but i was gettin pythium all over the roots and the water. so i went nft i was thinking of puttin a couple of air stones in there bcas ive still got me air pump just aint got round to buying some more airline or airstones. but my friend said it wont make a lot of diffrence in nft so i aint botherd. i have only got 4 plants i only use 3 nutes obviously the food and regeneroot steriods. your right prob the envirment and the water wat comes out me taps but there things i cant solve so humidity is always ok fella i put one in there b4 me lights go off every night 1 week into flower (starting from)

Wow, please share a link to some of these grows that are getting much more than 20 oz out of a 600.

If you already have an air pump, you should use it. I add air to the water regardless, even the water for my soil plants bubbles in a 5 gal jug first

yup. i always let an airstone sit in my water tanks for at least 24 hours before using that water

I've found that the pH (of my water) goes from 7.0 to around 7.8 when the airstone has been sitting in the water for more than 24 hours. No idea why

Its a couple things.. But I am thinking 2... Either keep your light low, as in 40-50 cm depends on what Light you got 4-600 is what you need minimum. Use canan coco next time, try something different.. If your water gets to hot in NFT then your roots wont be able to suck up the Phosphors and Potassium the pnats needs.. It will just go into slow mo mode.. Always aim your fan up at 45 degrees toward the filter intake.. so all the hot air goes out, at the same time have a hole the same size as the intake. Always use good genetics.. Dinafem have good priced seeds that will FUCK your head up.. they got the full line those Spaniards!!

Anyway, hit me up if you need any info..

Goodluck
