2000w Purple Kush 106 Plant Ebb and Flow SOG

[naturalhigh]

hey,

what was your feeding times with rockwool..i use 4 by 8s two but use 5 inch pots with rocks..thinking of using rockwool

Hey rabah are you starting your next grow? You must keep the show on the road. I appreciate you sharing your grow also it def expand my possibilities my goal is to get on your level on a 2 week perpetual so that is a great example of my future reality Thanks bro keep it up

Hmmm looking good. I hope you get 4lbs! I have a growlab 4x9 w/ 2k. If my results don't match yours (with only 8 plants), I may have to jump ship and try your method. Good job and good luck. I'll be lurking.

i started cutting today. so far ive cut down 35 ladies. i got the spinpro so cutting has been quite easy. the total weight from the 35 ladies wet was 2355g.

 

[Lo'pan]

Hey Rbaha! Lookin good bro! Looks like you got work ahead of you! LOL

Where did you get the Purple Kush from? Did you get some clones or did you start from seed?

 

[rbahadosingh]

So far ive cut down 59 ladies. total wet weight was 3542g.

Brilliant work mate, A very uniform crop

 

[~Shhh~]

Depending on what that drys up to 1/4 or 1/5 that is sound like 750g's once stick is removed... Was that wet weight inclusive of leaf as well?

Good times! =]

no that was wet weight after buds were processed in spinpro. no leaves or stems. all buds

Thanks for sharing this. If your dry yield is over 3 pounds, I will do an exact copy of your grow

 

[w1ckedchowda]

jesus fucking christ, I might have to agree with botwin on this one.

These are all lolipopped clones too right? How long did you veg them beforehand if you don't mind me asking?

 

[Bob Smith]

picture from today. i found some mold on 2 of the ladies and cut them down. im pretty sure some of the other ones have it too i just havent founnd them yet. i will be cutting earlier because of this. not sure exactly when. but soon, very soon.

What neighborhood has your RH been in since you installed the second dehumidifier?

thanks for tuning in. IMHO 3lbs is ok. i honestly feel like with some more fine tuning i can get over 2lbs per 1000w.

yes they are all clones. i vegged for 18 days i believe. flowered for 52. total 70 days.

What neighborhood has your RH been in since you installed the second dehumidifier?

its been varying. but between 45-65. and sometimes shooting upto 70. but since i changed the deadband on the controller and having the dehumidifiers come on a little earlier it has been staying below 59. if i would have done this earlier i doubt i would have had any mold. the mold wasnt too bad however. just on one part of the bud of each plant.

Weird; even though my dehumidifier is under my table and (almost) doesn't even share the same airspace as my plants, my RH has been in the low to high 40s...........better lucky than good, I guess.

EDIT: when you say "having them come on earlier", do you mean that you don't run them continuously? I have mine going 24/7.

no i dont run them continuosly. only as needed. just to save energy and because i dont want the room to get too hot. for my next grow im going to ge a commercial dehumidifier. 200 pint or somewhere along those lines.

I have a bitchen dehumidifier. Set it at 50 and it turns on only when needed. When I set it at 40 it worked too hard and the exhaust was very hot. I spent $200.

Rbaha, care to share some of the "fine-tuning" ideas that you've got?

I'm wondering if in hindsight you would've vegged for a little longer - looks like the plants aren't "deathly" crowded, and perhaps another 6" of vertical height (and the corresponding horizontal girth) would've been okay for them?

If so, that's at least 2-3 grams extra per plant, no?

Just a thought, lemme know whatcha think

 

[DubsFan]

One of the platforms of SOG is short veg and faster turnover. I agree he could have yielded more with another two weeks of veg but if you look at it on an annualized basis, that first two weeks of veg took away the potential to harvest 1 entire grow. Granted this is an ideal scenario, but if you could veg for 2 weeks in another location while finishing up your flowering plants, you could add one more grow per year. Don't think of yield on a per grow basis, think of yield on an annual basis.

If yield per grow mattered I would have 10ft ceilings and veg for over a month. But that's no efficient growing IMO.

2 weeks more of veg per grow x 4 grows per year = 1 wasted harvest of 3-4lbs. Will vegging this last grow for another 2 weeks have doubled his yield? Highly unlikely.

After watching this grow and exchanging some emails with Bob, I know exactly what I'm doing after my harvest in a week or so. SOG mofo's.

Ok, then that's sounding good mate... definitely if it drys up at 1/4 what is the firmness like? Do you have experience on what it drys up to?
