(Im also adding a complete 1500 PPM c02 kit, and a oxygen bubbler system)
I'am also thinking about putting another 1000W HPS in the box for a grand total of 2200W HPS for the 12 plants. I'am ordering Seeds from Dutch Passion thinking about using two different strains i have narrowed it down to Powerplant, Skywalker, White Widow, Blueberry and Mazar. These are high yielding plants and very potent aswell, I'm looking to get the largest possible yeilds without hurting the THC potency. I'am going off this book "Cannabis Cultivation by Mel Thomas" he mentions secondary budding which can increase yeild by 25% is that a legit method? In the overall picture im looking to get a Half Pound atleast a plant if not more in a 4-5 month cycle under these conditions. I'm still kind of a new to growing and can use any advice an experienced grower at this scale could provide.

Thanks

The links dead for me ???
What do they get for all that gear , I'm almost scared ?

I'd avoid the D/P Blueberry. I got a 10pk. recently and 6 were twisted leaf mutant bullshit .

4' x 8' - 12 buckets , 1/2 lb. ea. = 6 lbs .
I'm not seeing it happen in that small an area . I see a NOOB w/ damn good luck getting 2 lbs. outa 4-6 buckets in it tho.

I'm getting about a lb. per bucket w/ a similar but larger type system but 2 of my plants would fill that hydro hut . Do a search on here for some of Weedhounds grows on here , she's gettin 8oz. plants - 4 of her plants might fit in that hut . More plants isn't always more weed . You'd have all the sweet gizmos and cool tools all in 1 place w/ that kit , just got some reading , research to do now .
Peace

yeah that is definately true regarding size and what not. i'm still in the process of figuring out / designing a grow room that will be suitable for what im trying to produce. what do you suggest? build my own box or is there another alternative into what im trying to accomplish with atleast 8oz a plant. let me know any suggestions you have or what you are currently using yourself.

You would be much better off with two 1,000 watt lights. A 4'x4' footprint is kinda big for a 600 watt. You would also be better with reflectors instead of cool tubes - you'll get better light distribution.

I concur with the comment about Dutch Passions blueberry. All 10 of mine were twisted mutants also. I ordered them about a year ago and was severely disappointed.

I remember hearing about DP blueberry, don't they mention on their site something about that...*checks*


nope, nothing, I must have read it somewhere. I ordered some DP Passion #1, they worked fine. What happend with the blueberries?

[Doc 007]

I think you want Floralicious Plus as opposed to Floralicious Bloom with that mix.

You would also be better with reflectors instead of cool tubes - you'll get better light distribution.

You're supposed to have a reflector on your cool tube.

2200 watts of HID is going to melt a 4'x4' space. Have a fire extinguisher close by.

Xcrispi is right i had the same issue out of a 5 pack of dp blueberry...4 twisted and turned and looked awful then died only 1 survived and it had a high leaf to bud ration ...wont be gettting that again, at least not from there ....for sure...!!
