These are all from clone, small ones are Reserva Privada Strawberry Banana and Humbolt seeds Blue Dream. The two large plants are Mauie Wowie. I have an uneven canopy, due to having no veg tent yet and received a bunch of clones I couldn't pass up. They're all in sunshine mix #4 in 6.23 gallon pots using Fox Farms nutrients. The two large plants were veged forever, probably 40 days or more. One on the right is topped, trained a little. The two closest pictures are from today im about a week into flowering. Please shed some light, tell me how I'm doing. What do you think I'll yield and how do you feel about the uneven canopy. Thanks for the input! I'm using a cap air 4 climate controller by the way

Thank you a lot guys. I wasn't sure what spot on is with these sort of deals. As I said its my first grow and I have nothing but the internet to learn from. I spent a lot on equipment so I'm just hoping for the best possible outcome. How do you guys feel about the uneven canopy? Hope I can pull a pound off this, that'd be more than I'm expecting
 
The first thing that jumped out at me... its the empty dirty cups and dirty floor. It just may be me. But I am super Anal about a clean room. Nice looking plants.

do you bloom nutrients or just that soil?
 
I would probably set up a scrog with those two big ones taking up half the tent, then cluster the lil ones in the other half of the tent and elevate all so the canopy is the same height. And from now on just get all of your girls at once if possible. And six by six is really big for 1000 watt to cover. I never go over 5x5 and even that is stretching it a lil

Thanks for the reply!! I bought the set up used off craigslist so I didn't have much of a choice. It does seem quite large youre right. I'm considering setting up another tent, 4x4 1000w and running them both a month apart. What do you think? Also, I almost felt as if it was too late to scrog them. Maybe I'll do that this week when I fill my co2 tank.

I wouldn't waste the co2. I tent really isn't sealed enough for doing co2.
 
You don't think I should even run it maybe the last two weeks? To pack on some weight? I don't want to overdue anything. The guy I got the setup from said if I don't use the co2 I'm not using it to its potential. I was also thinking, if I were to move the two larger plants to the side and scrog them for the rest of their lives, but these strawberry bananas and blue dream are getting so lanky from the stretch maybe a scrog would be better on them? This is my first grow. I really have no clue what I am doing but so far, shits working out. This is a hobby I think I can really stick with. Thanks for all the input guys I really appreciate it.

I agree with this. I cleaned up the tent today and vacuumed the floor. Its just difficult getting in there, and its so easy to make a damn mess.
 
Instead of using nutrients every other watering, I use them every watering, but at half strength. (2 tsp per gallon)

It doesnt seem too late to scrog those in my opinion... i think the would fill in nicely after you splay them out and get a screen over them. As far as getting another tent and 1000 watt, that would definitely double your production! Just make sure your electrical circuits can handle it. Most standard house circuits are 15 or 20 amps, and a 1000w lamp pulls 9-10 amps on 120v. And then you have the added amperage of fans, dehumidifiers, any pumps, etc. Of course you could always run them on opposite 12 hr schedules, but then that brings the dilemma of how to accomplish the veg. cycle...
 
I'm planning a Maui Waui grow soon so post anything you learn about it and maybe some close-ups when it flowers.
