I really thought it was going to be 1.5-2 this run but the light pen didnt happen at all. Even about 7 inches down it it was hash bud. About 1/2 of all buds fizzled, a real letdown. Sad to say i got 12oz. 1 plant, 1000 watts, 12 oz. Really really expected more than that.Give me about 3-4 weeks ill let ya know what i do with my gavita 750 in a 8x8ok 850max w 7.5x7.5 ft
My room got fucked on half but i should still pull hopefully 2 plus .
Was going for 4

It is kinda a strange issue i neveer expected. In my last town i had a huge medical grow (to me) with up to 8 kw of light. For a 200 watt light to cause issues was a mindfuck.

How old is your HPS 1000 bulb?
When I ran SE 1000s , I changed them every 90 days

A year, but it saw heavy use. Half or more of that time it was on 24 and i moved plants into dark tents to flower double. I know i need a new bulb but i figured with a hortilux it would still be on the edge of its window of working well.

So that means you have a cable feed into your house I asume? Replace the cable running through your house with quad shielded RG6. Make sure your shielding is grounded to a steel or copper plumbing line or to earth ground. All unused connections should be terminated with a termination cap.

There’s your problem
90 days of 12/12
I’d buy a new bulb before a new fixture , the de last a lot longer then the se
But They say 1yr , if you go that long they will start losing penetration and will get larfy buds too,

Im gonna be buying a new bulb too, but i wanted to test a de side by side to my se. I got a new magnetic ballast, will get a new horti bulb, an compare to new de gav i guess is my plan, hopefully. But all this will be happening after summer when it starts to cool down again. These 12 oz should last me 6-8 months. I just want next time to last me a full year.

Was gona say back when i was in my basment
I grew in a 5x5x5 box with an air cooled 1000w digi single ender.
And i used to average anywhere from a little over 2 lbs to a little under depending on strain and if i mucked up
Just like this grow....this is my first run with the light and new nutes, and new system
So i didnt do too bad on my scrog side of the room
But the other half developed a weird deficiency that i just couldnt shake and the yeild in that half of the room probably suffered big time.
But i wont know till chop and dry and get a weight .
Good luck on the rfi thing though

Yea im pretty bummed... it was looking really good an like a solid 1.5 it was almost as good looking as my 2 lb indoor plant. To have the scale read the way it did was a shock to say the least. Coulda just been the overused bulb.... i dont know if ive ever ran a bulb so hard without changing it before. I used to change em out every 2 runs without fail. Im reveggin this plant tho an ill give it another go with a fresh bulb. I did leave a lot of bud on the plant but it was pretty much all larf that would be hash anyways, only left a few head nugs. But even still i dont think it woulda been a lb if i took it all. Oh well... ill let it veg out an prun it back into proper shape over the summer an flip it around october, making it about 1.5 year old as it starts its 2nd flower.

Yep the plants im finishing now are very old lol
Since last spring haha they got revegged when i almost let em die outside due to cold.
Brought em in i kinda regret it as they have taken up SOO much time.
But i saved the amnesia haze and mindscape from death but i lost my goji og.
I guess it led to me finding a possible keeper out of some bag seed i also had going outside lol
But im ready to CHOP these girls down lol

Yep trim prison is coming lol i built a 4x4 x8 drying room that i tried making airtight.......i put 3 tiny branches worth of the mindscape and next morning the woman was asking me if i had chopped
So i got a carbon filter on the way
Soon as it gets here its chop time

I beefed up my filter to a can lite 9000
So far so good , if it dies in a couple months I’m just going to put a big boy in n be done with it .
I’ve been in trim jail for the passed 10 days , n still have a half p not trimmed from last crop . I’m going to nerd out after watering tonight n watch star wars n get it finished.
One thing that’s kinda nice , is I have a break coming in the perpetual, will be at least 20 days before we chop again .

Nice even though ive been growing so long i never did a perpetual.
But i did this run i should have a good bush to cut down about 4 weeks after i chop the last of it out.
No idea on weight yet but stuffs hardening up
Sucks half my room went to shit after flip
I hope ill have time to redo my room this summer
Half will get stacked for production mabey even perpetual .then the other half oc the rom will be for seed runs and breeding experents lol

Thinking back on it i should have just revegged then took fresh clones and got rid of them lol
I probably would have finished much earlier because i took clones off them before i flipped and the clones almost caught up to them in a month haha.
No more monster plants for a while cant wait to have some fresh stuff going lol

I plan to take some clones an get em going but i cant see how they could catch this one. I know reveggin can be a pain in the ass but ive done it a few times now an its worked out fine, but never in a situation like this one. The biggest before this was in a 5 gal. This is a 35 gal. The roots are fully through the soil so i may transplant it or i may just let it ride. Kinda depends how the plant acts as it grows and i start pruning it down and after the hygrozyme

I had very bad luck with Solis Tek. Knocked out wifi and all AM radio in the vicinity. I had very good luck with Gavita Growamp. Stick with Gavita. I never post. But my experience with Solis Tek was so bad I had to post.
