Them bag seeds must really want that light. Going to lower them a touch. They are sitting around 15k but there still on 24/7, also going to 18/6 today now I freed up a timer lol. Havnt been using cal mag instead I just use a quarter bottle of my hard ass tap water with the rest ro. 20200721_065934.jpg 20200721_065941.jpg

Almost done should have them in room tmrw, kinda wish I bought a veg bulb for the cmh, probably order one tonight. Should have the next cmh light soon aswell.

Cmh wasnt all the way warmed up in this pic. Not much pink in room after it warmed up. Wich is awesome the pink light is suspicious as fuck. 20200801_205835.jpg
Plan on running a divider 18 inches down the center of ceiling to help channel air

How do you make that cmh disappear for the photos ?

Common sense tells us the 400watt hps in this photo is to close.

The law of inverse square tells us, one of your fixtures, at half the height, would give you equal light intensity.
5 weeks ? Blast those lil mutha's

I had them at 4' to acclimate. I wasnt planning on using cmh in veg but plants was small and I have it lol. It has a bloom bulb in it but I'm sure it helps some. Probably just switch to the blurple. Also I wanted lights to stay even. One light under another seems like a bunch of loss due to shading. Was wanting plants to be bigger by now, so was going to veg a week or so in the room.

I'm going to try small plants this time. Figure I could yield almost the same on a 2 foot plant lol. My first plant only yielded under 3 oz lol. With 80% of the weight on the top. Shorter plants should receive more even light. Last run my top was close to light and the bottom lower buds a few feet from lights (obviously lol) I can see it in the buds though. The lower buds are airy. A 8th of lower buds is a pile lol

Ended up killing the cmh for now. Temps have been awesome here and looks to be that way for a bit, almost fall weather. Getting ready to do a light feed. Got the day off today due to day care has there week off this week. Not complaining lol.

I do agree. Fixtures should not throw shade.
Nor will Jewels.

The first suggestion is just an observation in economics. A light source, at twice the distance yields a quarter of the intensity.

I am totally with you on small plants. The room is only so big, and like you said- the buds are all up top. Starting to believe my focus should gravitate towards canopy density rather than plant size. Considering that I dont smoke the stalks- perhaps I should focus on growing buds, not leaf.
only yielded under 3 oz lol.
Nothing wrong with that.
Shizloads O folks go through a couple packs and a few plants before they ever see an ounce.
Not a bad number at all. Even a 25% increase over four plants would bring the Pound !

Wise to be wary of unsolicited advice. Understand, I am only a "know it all" in one field.
"Knowing" that I want every one my growing Brothers and Sis's to exceed "all" expectations.

Good job, one light is all you need right now. I do agree with Jewels you should definitely drop the light almost halfway from there. You will get a lot of stretch up there. You should notice them grow a bit quicker with it closer and if they are stacking nodes too close for your liking then you can raise it up a few inches.

I'm always open for advice and appreciate any input. It's all pieces to a puzzle. The gow plant you have and I do belive a ground pounder you have that's T shaped kinda intrigued me on packing a room full of them lol.

I dropped the light the next morning. I'm sitting around 20" now. I read somewhere on acclimating plants to new lights at double there operating height for the first day. It made since in theory.

Little droopy this morning. Using spray bottle dont cut it anymore. Increased light and airflow greatly increased water consumption/evaporation I'd guess. Watered at 300 ppm at 6.3ph with good runoff and there perking back up. Probably going to top tomorrow morning. Wait a couple weeks and then flip. Going to try and clone the tops. 20200804_184641.jpg 20200804_184630.jpg

Day care having the week off has gained me yet another day at home, whatever shall I do....went and topped 6 plants all the bag seed ones and one of the black triangles. I'm being a little bitch about topping blueberry ones. Growing so good and I know they be fine....the others I'm wanting to get a little more height before topping. Made a crude 5min bubble cloner thing? Lol cut bottoms out of starter trays filled full ones with rock so didnt float. Filled with around a gallon of water and 2 tbsp of butyric acid. We will see, threw some screen I had over to knock light down. 20200806_105723.jpg 20200806_112706.jpg 20200806_112755.jpg 20200806_112230.jpg

Non blurples, this morning was a big diffrence on new shoots. Looks like the girls are hitting the powerband. Want to perpetual at 2 plants every 2 weeks. So I start with 13....?. So I will start 2 plants at the 6th week of flower. And then 2 every 2 weeks. Definitely need to ramp up yield. I have a top left off the plant lol. I know they say it's best to veg a month before flowering but flowering from seed only requires one room. I want to set a tent where my dehue is for drying. My buddy agreed to house a couple mothers. But I really dont want to have to owe somebody weed every grow....I want it all lol 20200812_072513.jpg 20200812_072400.jpg 20200812_072433.jpg
