Im on a quest to hit 1.5 lb with 6 plants. (i know it sounds like im pushing it big time but i like a challenge) Durring 3 1/2 weeks of veg it got very crowded so i decided to pluck and journal my experience. In the first few posts i will fill you in to present day. Below is my growing design.

Bathroom grow with about 5x4 space

1000 watt HPS/mh with aircooled hood vented out bathroom ceiling.

Nutes - GH 3 part plus diamond nector and florolicias plus. DM Zone for algae prevention.

Day 26. These guys have been super bushy from the get go. I plucked a grocery bag full of leaves last week and they are already getting full.

Im going to use it as a real scrog. Little tricky cause the sqaures are too big so i have to let them grow Through a lil before tucking them under. I think i have 2 weeks tops till it is full.

Any update on this? How are the girls looking? I'm really interested with this grow as it's pretty much exactly the same as what I'm setting up.
1.5 pounds
6 plants
5x5 grow area (tent),
aeroponics
I'm having each plant grown in a 5 gallon bucket with two sprayers per bucket.

Yeah, I lost my phone and most of the pictures and kind of gave up. I will say that the two in the middle got taken over so they didn't really grow so well, and we're way behind the others. I thought I wasn't going to hit my goal. However I was very surprised and pulled 18 ounces from just the four on the outsides. I left the middle going since they are finally getting the light they need. And I expect to get 4 more ounces between the two, plus all the smaller undergrowth on the other four I have not cut yet. I suspect a total of 22 ounces easily. And there max hight was maybe 25 inches. You can see pics of them near harvest time on my other posts.
