the strain that was used in the pic was Purple Urkle. with no veg time under a 600w with 28 plants i finished around 200g.

were you able to get a four by four table into that dark room easily?
the tent is 3'11 x 3'11' and the table is 4'x4'. so i just cut 1" from two sides and it fit..

I have the same tent. How did you set up the ventilation? does your exhaust blow outside? are you using the passive intake or do you have an intake fan? If you got an intake fan is it sucking from outside?

My tent is exhausted outside with a 6" fan and a i have a 4 inch intake. Just curious since your plants look so healthy, the ventilation must not be a problem.

I also got (2) 2x4' trays in my dr120 with 24 plants

i like your set up a lot. ive been messing around with a few set ups and i think im going to go with the 1000w HPS and try switching it into flowering right away as well. how tall will the plants get you think? And what significance does cutting the lower branches serve? wouldnt that take away from yeild?

nice grow man!

i have the exhaust going to the window and on out. i am using an EcoPlus 6" inline fan, this thing creates soooo much suction in the tent that i have to put a spacer in between the tent and the tray so that the vents can do their purpose. if not, the sides of the tent will suck in about a foot each.
it would be a "passive" intake system if what you mean by that is that i have no intake, only exhaust. i pay very close attention to my babies, i think that growing herb all depends on how well you can keep a mother plant growing. before i ever flowered any plants i grew a mother plant for about 7 months taking clones every couple weeks so by the time i was ready to give it a shot i had a good feel for growing and now everything goes quite smoothly..

nice grow man!
my plants will end between 1-2ft tall. cutting the lower branches off after 2 weeks of flowering will focus the energy that the plant uses towards the top of the plant(sensemilla). this way all the buds in our batch will be A++. Some people say you can lose yield that way but ive done it several times and get better yields/light than some of my friends that are more experienced.

Thanx for responding to my thread everyone! :mrgreen:

Its looking nice Man! but i need a lil explanation to help me out..
Ive always looked plant prosses as.. the more root and the more leaf means the plant can produce more energy for budding but your method seems to be the oppisit of that..

You have a very short/no veg time (meaning less roots) and now youve gone and cut off the lower brances (I understant that alil.. lower branches dont see as much light and start dieing anyway, meaning wasted energy usage to save those leaves) But still..

I just cant get past the idea of how short and sweet get better results then long and slow.. I just need alil explanation..

Sorry for the nubie questions.. Still learning to grow if ya know wat i mean.

Peace!

nice man, very nice
I am also doing Sea of green.

my question to you is, how many branches were there before you cut off the lower ones?
and how many did you have left after the procedure was done?
