well if its from directly underneath I'm not sure they would be able to absorb it. It wouldn't be bad, but I would recommend side lighting like it seems everyone is saying. When a plant makes it's leaves I think the stuff called auxin is what is basically the plants nervous system and reacts to...

Yeah man don't worry I'm not one of those Get-rich-Quick kinda guys, and I don't want to start off on the wrong page, this would all either be personal use and shared among friends and family, or taken to the local Co-Op to spread the love. I just REALLY wanted to have my own home grown haha So...

hey man, thanks for the info haha don't worry you definitely helped me out in choosing how many plants. I'm going to do either 9 or 6 because I read what you were saying and it did make a lot more sense to just have less plants with bigger buds as opposed to my idea. And I should be starting to...

Alright, I think I'm gonna go with 9, but I'm considering 6 or even 4 because more people are turning me in that direction because of quality and how out of control it might get. so thank you for all your help RIUs and i hope to start my journal soon

I know I'm just kind of asking questions for what people would think not actual numbers. Haha believe me you're not the first to tell me that but I was just thinking someone could give me a ball-park estimate on them, you knkow maybe if they had grown before with what I'm doing and could just...

yeah that's about what I figured, I kind of just have to try it. And yeah I should be good with indica dominant strains using LST also and somebody suggested a screen.

Yeah I would do that It's just I'm having a hard time finding that many clones as there is only one Co-Op where I live and they have a limit on how many clones you can buy so that no patient hogs them because there aren't that many. I would just buy all clones and then take clones from them, but...

Yeah, I plan on using at least 80/20 indica dominant strains and there will be three different strains with ten plants each about. I figured It would work but with just less bud per plant and more plants. I might be sacrificing 4 good 4oz plants for 16 1 oz plants but I hope to get around the...

OK, I'd rather do 9 plants per light if I had too would that be fine under this amount of lighting?

Yeah man, I once had some for around 6 months and they were chalky as shit and fell apart. I used them and they were fine so i don't think they lose potency unless they're some new shit.

Yeah, but if I did 16 plants and less height and veg time would I still get the same amount or near as if I did 6 bigger plants? you know all the 16 combined?

OK I know that that's the basic equation, but my question was more how many plants per light because I don't know the ratio very well so some people have said that 16 plants per light is not good but others say perfectly fine and i was wondering if there was a finite way to find out if it was...

Hey, I was talking to a good amount of different people online and at the local clinics about how many plants I could flower under two 600 watt HPS/MH lights in a 4x8 tent using soil and it's all going to be organic. I orginally was planning on doing 9 plants per 600 watt and flower at about a...

Yeah? Damn, I keep hearing different things, someone said that that many plants would be fine, but someone else recommended that I do 3x6 max and let them grow a lot. I don't plan on letting them get HUGE, you know maybe flower them when they're around a foot or a foot and a half while using LST...

No, just Two, is that too many plants, I've had people tell me its too many and people say it's fine so what is it really haha

dam that sucks that they died man. But anyways, I think I'm going to go with ordering seeds for the most part and get a couple clones. That way i can have a good variety like you said, and I am still able to make mother plants out of whichever plants I like the best. So hopefully I can get this...

Yeah good point. So this is what I think I'm going to do. I'll have two 600 watt hps/mh and just buy 30 seeds, each 10 a different strain, and then buy two clones from the clinic and just take cuttings from all 5 strains when they're able to and then turn those into mothers. in the meanwhile...

Well they would be from a friend that runs a local Co-Op so I know a good amount of what I'm getting. And yeah i was thinking about starting some mothers from seeds but I didn't want to have to order that many seeds if i could just but the clones and invest in two grow rooms and then just take...

OK, and for mother plants it's basically just keeping them growing under a 18/6 light period while trimming down to keep size within limits, right?

I want to do two 600w hps/mh with 16 plants under each, so 32. So instead of just starting with seeds I wanted to make some mothers, take 16 clones for Room 1 and then about half-way through that take 16 more clones for Room 2, and keep alternating every couple months.
