I'm running a 400w halogen bulb, the tent is two meter high. They're females and the veg is about 2 months (I started with a really low lumens bulb and replaced it.)
a 1000w will easily penetrate 5-6 feet.
I disagree. I've seen many successful grows using a 1000w Without LST Or SCROG. They produced nice fruits from top to bottom. You'll always have some popcorn nuggs however.
well i don't know about you, but i've never seen 4-5' buds...
I'm going to run a 400w HPS for flowering off course. The halogen is just for veg time
I know, but as I mentioned before I had a low lumens bulb and then replaced it with a better one. You also have to consider the topping and super cropping which decreases the growth speed.
I've done a couple of grows with halogen lights and not necessarily you get pop corn buds. I actually take all of the shoots that are below the canopy area so the plant doesn't put energy on developing this shoots and uses that energy in the colas and top shoots. I think is really important tu get an even canopy, so the light penetration is even and gets to every part of the shoots.
Mine are all topped and supercropped. It doesn't slow them down much. It must have been the light. I'd veg for at least another month if I were you
I was thinking the same, thanks bro, good luck with your ladies
