My uncle and I have found 11.5 hours to be the best amount of HPS on time for yield. Even then it's just a so so yield IMO. The quality on the other hand will knock over even the most seasoned pro. With my uncle it's not so much about yield for him.
"That's what I'MMM TALKIN' ABOUT!" - Rauber's responce when I passed your info on to him.

Most growers have never taken the time to explore away from 12/12, so we are duely impressed with your 11.5/12.5 info.

I also think most 12/12 strains (bred with strong outdoor genetics), do better on an 11.5/12.5 schedule. I spend most of my time on the first grow "getting to know" a strain dialling into what it WANTs in the way of timing (it's one of the reasons I feel so strongly that people should learn to do this and why it's at the core of the Martian Method).

I'm a quality guy myself (way too spoilled in the know to worry about yield at this point in my grow). I often have to think in terms of converting/relating to 12/12, since I'm so used to doing 11/13 Sativas.

I'm going to do a standard 12/12 plant demo or two here pretty soon, just so I can rock a plant with a little more relativity for most growers!

What do you think of the trichome production on your current #1 TOC batch? Properly Pumped PAD using Rauber's Method drives incredible trichome production (Oh Man, I can't wait for Halloween! Gonna blow people's minds).

Also, with your set-up, would CFLs be better for you than 2 Foot Fluorescent tubes? We're doing 4 Foot and 2 Foot Floros now, but Rauber wanted to know what you can comfortably do before he emailed you on it.

Keep up the good work Dog!

I'll try to get Rauber to get that email out to you this weekend (been swamped).

Take Care, Sal.
