unknown genetics bagseed from brick shwag
2x4 Flood Table (homemade) 25 Gal res
carbon Filter/canfan 400cfm

So I have no idea what the genetics of the plant I am growing are. I know the seed came from a bag of dirt weed. Typical low grade brick weed.
It seems to be Sativa Dominant and it takes about 100 days to flower.

I have harvested three times now from this setup and plant. I use the SCROG method.

I take clones from the mom and allow them to root well then I veg them for a few weeks in my veg/clone/mom room and then place 6 of them in my 2x4 flood table. I allow then 2 weeks of 24 hour lighting to fill my screen. They then go to 12/12 lighting for about 100 days.

The average dry weight from each harvest is 16 ozs.

The weed itself actually comes out pretty damn well. It stinks like skunk , is covered with trichromes, and my close friends that I share with absolutely love it. It amazing how a seed from a bag of cheapass shwag when grown and loved can turn into something really good,

Anyways 16ozs..... am I doing well considering the area I am using, the scrog, and my 600w hps??

Any suggestions would be appreciated.

Oh and I do have some quality genetics showing up soon.
 
Sounds like you know what you are doing .. Perfect fan for the light/carbon filter. Everything sounds good except your genetics .. Good luck man .

thanks for the compliment. I am still learning and if it were not for all the help I have had along the way from many many wonderfull people on overgrow.com(i really miss this place) and now this website I would probably never had been able to do what I do now.

I would be forced to purchase my medicine from dispensaries and that I cannot afford. They really charge an arm and a leg.
 
Sounds like a good method for sure. If it were me, I would go 18/6 veg and spend a couple hundred bucks to get some dank ass genetics. 100 days of flowering is a loooong time in the indoor world. Dude, that's twice as long as most indica strains. Indica's generally grow better indoors anyways.

I know what you mean but your set up sounds good I have a similar set up converted a small walk in closet I had the same CFM fan you had about 400 but I purchased a 1000W HPS and that wasnt cooling it enough so I had to get a 675 CFM fan. Anyways dude we all grow the same reason I too was tired of shelling out 420 a zone from my dude, now I am my "own dude" and I love it .. Time consuming but its a fun hobby.

Yeah what he said I get good grows going 18/6 throughout veg. Then 12/12 in flower that 600W HPS should produce some fat buds.. I know my 1000W does.
 
Dude need not worry you sound well on your way to another good harvest. Besides the reggie you are growing everything else sounds perfect I dont grow on a flood table I use DWC bubbleponics.. Just watch that reservoir temperature keep it 63-68 degrees and you will be fine.
