man that 1000w is a grown man, my girls grow 1.5 inches a day lol we will be moving along soon. had to break down the op due to the bathroom tub is cloged. condo,maint has to come in and fix it. damn, going to set me back 2 weeks on my grow. now they are under a 400w t5 4 footer. cant wait to put they back under the 1000. i was thinking about grabing 5 inch pots for the 4x4 table and run 81 girls lollipop style thanks to al
that would be awesome i talked to a guy on icmag that did that had 6" pots went to 5" and said it worked great.

yeah the plant will have all roots in the pot and u cant get alot of them in a 4x4 table, just make sure u got a lot of air blowing on the girls. no room for a fuckup lol. i got 2 4inch fans blowing on them 200cfm each. thinking about pcv pipes to blow through the plants from underneath.
 
oK so i've been doing some research on this SoG growing method and I am going to do some adjustments to ma grow room.
I will have three 4x4 tables. 2 tables under each 1k light and the other table in the veg. side for the mothers. I think I can fit like 10 2gallon buckets in the 4x4 table. I will just take clones from the mothers and put those clones in hum. domes for about 2weeds so they can grow roots then they are going to the flowering tables. I can do it so that I get a harvest each month from each table. once the system is up and running. I think 64 is the maximum that can fit in each table. I got 2liter square pots for the clones. I will have one strain for each table. Hopefully I will get close to 2pound per table. First time doing SoG so ill let ya know how it goes. I got 10 trees right now flowering and they only got 1month left. N the tallest one is like 5ft. It was a bixch moving the lights up today. They are like almost touching the ceiling!!! iTS Ma first grow so yea .... last time that shyt ever gets that big.. lol

ya the height sucks lol i feel your pain and with the lights that high the lower branches are basically getting nothing anymore. what you are planning is exactly what im doing as of right now with 4 week harvests but smaller trays plan on doing 4 trays on 2 week harvests in march ALLOT more work but well worth it i should be getting close to a pound every 2 weeks that way.
 
Not only does the height suck but also the different strains in the tray suck. Half of them are like 5ft. and some are just like 3ft. So yea I dont think the smaller plants are gonna get that much bud since the light now is like 2ft away from their tops. Oh so your doing the Al B. grow. With a harvest every 2weeks, nice.. It seems like alot of work and I dont have the right reflectors like the wing reflectors Al B has. So I dont think that method would work for me. I got 2 8in. air cooled reflectors from Sun system and they only cover like a 5x5 area. So yea good luck to your set up..

thanks man i got small reflectors too but im going to be using 5 400's 3 over the last 4 week stages (two trays weeks 4-6 and the other tray weeks 6-8 for a total of 1200w's over the last trays and im going to run 1 400 over each tray in 0-2 weeks and 2-4 weeks.

im using a 4v4 flood and drain tray, should i lollipop 64 plants for max yield or how many plants should i use for max yield. I am running it with one 400w or 600w HPS to skip veg and go straight flower. Is this a good idea?? Thank you sir.
