So im starting my 4th run of the same strain
4 clones
Its a berries strain iys over 20 year old with 1 other person growing them

My set up
120x120x180 tent
Carbon filter and fan for extraction
1 600w hps for veg and flower
18/6 in veg and 12/12 in flower
4 to 5 week veg time
20liter final pots
Bio bizz all mix
Nutriants will be monkey nutriants
Iv always topped them and spred them out for a flat canopy
The last 3 runs iv had 8-9oz with a couple oz of popcorn

Can any 1 see a way of increasing the yeild
Is it possable to get 4oz per plant???
Any recommendations on medium frount???

You should easily be able to get over 1lb in that tent with a 600watt hps.

Some genetics do not produce huge buds. Maybe it is a low producer.

Quality over quantity if your are growing for personal use IMO.

I got 15ounce from two plants in a 2'x4' with a 600hps. But 600hps is to much for my closet so I got led now.

You should be able to grow some monster plants in there.

Got some pics?


I got almost 10 ounces from 1 plant and that is absolutely nothing to brag about. Lots of people growing plants that harvest over 4 ounces.

How is that only 9punces and 4 ounces of larf?


That is a full as fuck 5x5 tent. That should be a lot more than 9 ounces.

Is that a harvest pic?

Short plant was 3-5 ounces. Tall plant was 9-11 ounce.

With the proper technique you can get almost all the nugs to be dense. I had practically no larf on the small one. Tall one had a little.

What do the plants sit in and on inside the tent?
Do they sit on the floor or in a tray thats on concrete floor? (and also the bottom of the tent too)
Maybe put a riser/spacer to keep the pots off the floor...and allow better air flow and warmer temps for drying.
Just a guess...lol
Best of luck and happy growin' :P

Larger pots for bigger roots
Longer veg time
Lollipop the bottom before flower
Flower at least 10 weeks, preferably 12 or 13

It could just come down to the strain. My last grow in a 4x4 I got 25 oz under a 630 CMH, but I grew 4 different strains, and my least productive plant only produced 3 oz, the rest were much better. So if you got stuck with one of those low producing strains, I can see it happening. It's also possible you harvested too early-most people do to be honest, and they lose out on a LOT of weight as a result. How high do you keep your light from the canopy during flower? Also, what is your feeding schedule like?

Feed wise i just follow the chart for my feed i feed every watering
Watered when dry a finger deep
I keep my light as close as possable without burning them.
Id love to know some better producers if u could help. Iv asked on here b4 but just got aswers stating it was all down to experience or environmental
