Hi I am growing a Aurora and Afghan Kush Ryder under a 270watt LED in a 3x2x1 cab I would appreciate any ideas on how I can increase the yield.My first grow was a Blue Mystic Auto and I only got about 15g dry so I am looking to learn on how to maximise my yield potential.

Grow Photoperiod, Auto dont yield as much and are not as potent and require more energy to grow... only upside is quick harvest.

Use bigger containers if you grow in soil that would help a lot.

You can tie your plants down with plant ties (3$ at home depot, .. for some reasons they are not in garden department...) to help keep the canopy even.

You can top them in veg for multiple colas

You dont give us much detail so its hard to help you, can you upload a picture?

what is your light? if its 270 true watts you should be able to get at least 3 oz without working too hard...

trim half the leaves in half while its still vegging to promote more root growth. be sure to keep your lights as close as possible without burning them. maximize air flow and increase CO2 if possible. let the plants wilt before watering them again. use nutrients. aerate your soil more. but really, go with a photoperiod strain

really, you let your plants wilt before watering :wall: If I was more experienced as a grower I would say this is the worst advice you could give, I mean unless you have Gnats infestation or overwatering problem it would be ok to do it once but you make it sounds like you do it all the time, that would stress the plant and increase your chance of getting hermis
