lol, listen to you all.... telling me what i harvested off my own plants, as if you were there just by simply looking at a picture. unbelievable. but hey think what you want. i'm guaranteeing 24oz+ on 4 plants and i'll put it all up on ROI.
are you really telling me you are going to pull a lot higher yeild off 4 plants in a room vs a 4ft x 4ft screen full of 1ft cola's under the same light
I can tell you, I did'nt yeild any where near 20 oz's from the screen and I honesty don't think I could have done much better, it was a bumper crop ,plain and simple
would find it difficult to get the same results again

about a pound of dry cured buds

Yes i am telling you that. i have been telling the whole time. the domina i have (i was given this cut a few years ago so its authenticity is questionable) but nevertheless, it will give 6 apiece no problem. i know my way around this plant. it's genetics man of this one man, big yielder.
It looks like more
it does look like more, that's a nice scrog man.

cheers fellow

I grew lots of super lemon haze plants from seed to find the best phoneo, took cutting over 3 crops to find the best plant, was not an easy plant to find very big yeilder, good quailty smoke and short flower.

a few domina plants will never match a well grown scrog, because there too much wased space in the grow room, simple

EDIT: not saying you plants are badly grown, there not and you have done a really good job but there haven't used all the space, like my current grow, I have got 4 well grow plants in flower, a little smaller than yours and I know I will pull 8-10 under the 600w but I am ok with this
its a cheap buget grow in a small crappy shed lol

i mean seriously, what are you guys going to do when i show you everything i've been saying? are you going to disapprove of it still? trying to estimate a yield from a picture... just like all the other ROI ppl that say "about a pound" LOL, you can't estimate a harvest from a picture. end of story. seriously, how bad are you all going to feel when i show you the goods? im not bluffing either, royal flush... oh wait... when my no tills get fired up... no need to flush!
You said those were 7 ounce plants , they're not. And yes we can tell from a picture. We grow weed all the time. None of those colas weight 12 grams dry.. I gave you 24 gram colas still didn't hit 14 ounces. This isn't even a growing question anymore it's basic math. You are way off.

You dont get to make claims like that without serious proof to back it up. Posting a couple plants isnt gonna cut it Kid Domina. I wouldnt of said or posted shit with out alot pix, drying nugs, dried nugs full room shots, numbers on the scales. The whole thing. A big write up on EXACTLY what u did. And posting that shit is paranoia city. Alot people would of believed you. Maybe not all but alot more. Like if you would of took the time to do it proper why would you go through all that to lie? Thats kind of believable in itself. You dont say 24 to 32 and if.you dont get 3 lbs a lamp yur doing something.wrong or whatever bowshit you said. Then post 2 sort of average plants trying to force experienced growers to eat said bowshit. No son. Thats not how we do!!!!

For me, I don't even care that he's lying. It's the fact that he posted a picture of 3 ounce plants at best. Probably more like 1 and a half to two. That's fucking dumb, he couldn't even Google shit beforehand. The problem isn't that he's a pathological lier it's that he's a dumbass.. He could have easily said look at my plants I run 10 in a 4x4 tent.

Instead he claimed that he only runs 4 and pulls 7 each then shows us that.:wall:


His stupidity and lack of growing knowledge is insulting.

there you have it, does hydro grow more weight at harvest than soil? if so how much
Yes it does, synthetic feed hydro tends to yield more.. In a side by side of top drip recirculate hydro SOG and Super Soil SOG, There was more weight. I would say roughly 10-20% weight per plant, but differences in smell and appearance, I think soil has a better aroma.. things like chocolate tend to come out better, citrus is more pronounced in hydro. Appearance is different, I saw more purple in GSC, and more trics vs soil.

Now when you say "hydro" there are many versions of it and they could be combined to reduce the yield, and retain some of the characteristics, like higher yield. Take rockwool for example. 100% Rockwool is considered hydroponic. But you can blend 1/4 of your soil with rockwool. And take this with a grain of salt, growdan mixed into soil seems to outperform regular soil.

There are some other "Hybrid" systems out there look at octopots, its a "wick" style system that also uses soil. and has roots at the bottom in solution.

I dont know about taste or smell but ive grown organic style in my past. I do notice that organic soil plants tend to grow more bushy. Iam almost certain it has to do with the forms of nitrogen (ammoniacal, nitrate, slow release, etc.) And the high kelp (cytokinins) thats ina lot of well thought out amended soils.

So you can lie to us again? Let me show you something. This is what two pounds a light looks like you twat. Theyre 1ks, with co2. Theres six of them under each light in seven gallon grow bags filled with promix and running canna nutes. Theyre around seven feet tall. Look at the far row of plants. 2 lbs a light. Like real 2 lbs a light. Not some make believe internet 2 lbs a light with two 2.5 foot plants weighed wet.....hilarious. View attachment 3512455 Oh ya, that picture was taken two weeks before harvest just so i dont mislead anyone as to what two pounds a light looks like ;) View attachment 3512466im sorry but this ^^ looks no where near whats posted up there ^^^^^
Finally! I was too chicken shit to post pics.

You post normal sized average plants that you say weight 7 ounces dry. I tell you three at best.. you say no way.lol...let me try this again! These are your plants.28_pic.pngin this picture I'm lying and telling you every bud weights 12 grams dry.. (THEY DONT) I'm just giving that to you to show you how stupid your claims are.. With all those 12s you get a little over 5 ounces not 6 .. you are really good at embarrassing yourself.

I dont use any synthetic forms of feed, when using soil. A natural product that was dried and pulverized is ok like kelp or guano is fine. I'll do a simple kelp foliar for both sides but thats about it.. I'm looking to use tricontinal to my advantage, not so much cytokinins,..ya know a natural PGR. I dont even like to use lime, I'll use eggshells.. stuff like that.
