how many plants under 1 600w light

Kinda difficult troubleshooting a previous grow. So unless you kept a detailed daily log it's kinda pointless.

But next time you have something that doesn't look right, give another holler.

After what you posted, I can see that likely your final pots are too small, (2.5 US gallons or so) possibly causing a late-flowering rootbound condition, and all peripheral problems that come with it. Doubtful it's as easy as that though. Likely a combination of that, not knowing your ph, other unknown variables...

I've never used CO2, other than a seltzer water experiment that ended in an ant problem and sticky walls. (and sticky pots, and sticky bulbs...)

NEWS FLASH: 2.5 oz per plant isn't crap. (depending on it's genetics, lol)

Thanks Rusty Trichome am i right in saying veg for 4 weeks and flower for 8 weeks if so when im in the flowering stage when should i exspect to see some bug. i am going to start a crop of K2 soon have you delt with this befor if so any tips

Thanks for the info

Depends on strain and technique(s) used, and how much headroom you've got. But if you don't top or take clones, (or otherwise injure the plant) 5 to 6 weeks is a good generalization. Once she starts alternating the internodes, she's ready any time you are.

Once in flowering, they'll start the stretch. About a week or so later you'll see the buds forming. Ya can't miss 'em, lol.

The best I have ever done under a 600 is 608 grams of dried bud. Which translates to about 21.7 oz. This was for 12 plants for an average yield of 1.8 oz per plant. The plants were 6 each Mandala #1 and 6 each Satori. Would I have gotten more yield from 10 plants or 8 plants? I don"t know the answer to that question. All I do know is I did the very best my knowledge allowed me to do. I do know there are a few growers out there that can do better but there are a hell of a lot of others can not.

not trying to correct you rusty but wouldn't it be alternating nodes seeing as internodes are the space between nodes? nodes obviously being where leaf and auxillary bud primodia form.

it's also a little weird that we use alternating (yes they alternate sides) but the correct term is opposite leaves. alternating means something different. lol.

Yes, but it just doesn't roll off the tongue as nicely. One of these days I'll get it right, lol. :thumbsup:

Good catch. :jointsmile:

thanks. and you're right, it sure doesn't!

i've been learning from some of the best around here. not to mention reading some books.

you guys all rock!

yes bro. what you got 608 on a 600w, thats bang on g per watt. :thumbsup: i no it all depends on the strain, but can you still aim for a gram per watt with less plants then 12. its legal for me to grow 3 plants where i live, could i still aim for 600 (happy with 450 g) from a 600w lite in a tent with just 3 plants. il get clones 3 week old, veg for anogher week of 2, then into flower 8-10. am i barking up the wrong weed tree thinking this,or is my high intensions possable
