just a few questions from an advancing grower

[DirtBagger]

i call my set up ocean forrest 313 and this is my second official grow with even greater results. im using two 150w hps sunleaf sunsystems going 12/12 since april and everthings looking great. foxfarm everything dirt nutes additives EVERYTHING!!! my first grow was sabotaged by spMites a draught and several lighting failures but still turned out better smoking buds than anything i bought that year, comparable to most kush i found. it was called john hurley if anyone has heard of this strain let me kno. my thing is now im more advanced and im cloning now(or learning to), i've split my ops into 2flowering/1veg and 1mother from whom 7 clones were taken. 3 the first time 2 surviving and 4 just today. my first 3 used a cloning cube and clonex but the last 4 were rhizotonic and FFOF, will this work? next i made a growbox using a crate but im still perfecting that so input is needed, it uses a 60w naked bulb just to bring them up which works well. the 2flowering are going spectacular videos later. ive used FIM supercropping topping lollypopping bending and a few LST techniques IF ANYONE OUTTHERE CAN HELP MAKE SURE MY CHILDREN GROW UP RIGHT PLZ COMMENT. thnx for all input in advance and ima put up my vid log when/if i can.

'Sup Bagger,

lighting failures NOT a massive issue IMO. They just don't photosynthesise for that dark period. How do the ladies react to all the high yielding techniques you mentioned (which I also use) with 2 relatively low power lights? I have a 600w and 400w HPS rig and the girls react quickly to the stress of topping LSTing etc.

They do suffer stress -clearly, but all things being good with temps, nutes, humidity etc., they respond well to lots of Lumens bouncing around the Stealthcloset.

What size pots will you use through vegging, and flowering to finish? I'm using 20ltr builders tubs for the entire flowering period. I use 10ltr pots from 3 weeks to flippin' time. I will say, I'm not entirely sure, but the girls seem to be taking longer to finish because of the rootball size. (Any oh-fish comments on this greatly appreciated.)

Good luck with yer grow. Happy growing buddy.

Peace. Widow.
