Thank you.... I'm hoping to do better this time.... last grow I got 33 oz off 4 plants and 4 600w hps.... got a take the stuff I've learned and the things I did wrong and improve on them.

You my friend are on your way to success! I used gh for a while, and recently switched to bio buzz. Trying veganic/organic, figured its natural like wild just more concentrated. Just don't feed to heavy with the gh, I wouldn't go above 1000ppm in full bloom, even though they could take almost up to 1600ppm if tapered into properly. With all that light and big bag those are going to be beasts! looking forward to updates.

Yeah you will do better bro i get better after every grow last one i did one plant and got 20 oz off her she was a beast was very happy first time i got the 1+ gpw might of ended with more but got bud rot on 2 buds had to pull her at week 7

with 2400 Watts you should be pulling around 3 pounds+ every round the blue dream will do you well as shes a big yielder Also give them longer veg and lots of training and you will start pulling the pound per light

Yea I've only given these plants nutes twice and they were light nutes.... I plan to take it ez on the nutes, don't want to stunt my plants with nute burn. Thx my friend I will keep you all posted.

Yeah lollipopping is a must i hate pop corn buds i still get some but after the stretch i remove as much as i can that's not getting light people recommend only lollipopping in veg but some plants have a huge stretch so it's need in flower me thinks and as long as the root system is healthy it shouldn't stunt them at all

Also yeah the 20 off one was my best so far before that it was 13 :) also i don't like going over board with the nutes i find less is best because if you go over you stunt them and hammer your yield but once you grow the same strain a few times you know how far you can push her

So as if right now I have been constantly pulling air off my vented hoods and drawing fresh cool air from the other side of my basement...... I'm also running a.c. in both rooms.... I'm thinking about putting my exhaust fan on a timer and only sucking air from my room like half the time.... Mabie my a.c. won't have to run so hard?¿?¿? .......any ideas on this?

Blue Dream is a good one. I've run the HSO version twice now. Good smoke but not the best in resistance to mold.

Did you use roots organic soil last time? I've been running roots organic for over 3 years now. It's hot soil, I wouldn't be feeding heavy at all. I feed at around 350ppm in veg and top out at around 700ppm maybe 800ppm in flower depending on the strain.
