Say del 6666 if you dont mind me asking what do you average and how many do you run at a time, i know that the sizes can differ as ive learned first hand on this grow..I have a plant that is 16" of solid bud and another that is 12" and looks to be doing ok then i have one that is done growing upwards and is only 7" tall wtf?

guess your always going to get the odd failure, my cheese is 12 inches and my 2 tallest grapefruit are 24 and i think 28 inches, will check tomorrow, weights used to be between 1 1/2 and 3 oz dry under a 400 watt but now i run a 600 so expect 2-3 per plant, got 8 plants in flower and 2 other smaller still in veg under the 600, yeah 7 inches is small, can depend on strain.

I'm near the end of my first grow n I got some bagseed, one of them germ'd and I popped it in with my big girls, been 12/12 from the day it was born and its looking not too bad. Not sure how long its been tbh, I was high:bigjoint:

The hps doesn't let you see the green on it but its a nice green colour :)

Your plants look brilliant del, would love to see mine grow up to be that good but I think il pray for a female to start lol.

Hey del i'm a noob first time grower.....but just so i understand, from when you put the seed in your medium your light is set to 12/12 correct? Also do you wait till the 3rd/4th set of true leaves to start feeding nutes? I'll assume you use some kinda veg nutes till you see flowers starting to form then switch to flowering nutes? For your lights are you using the same light from beginning to end a 600w hps? Do you check ppm, if so what ppm do you start off at when feeding veg and then what do you start off at when feeding in flower? Sorry for all the questions but this is all new and very interesting to me. Your pics look great, keep up the great work and updates ;)

hey man, can be done with cfls but not as good in my opinion, did some in a cupboard with 600 watts of cfl and only pulled 1 1/2 off the best, ok to put under cfls for first week or so but then id go hps, i grow mine in coco so start nutes at around 1/4 strength from start
