Advice on Veganics for One Plant Grow

NewHeights said:
Thats EXACTLY what my plan is. Veg twice as long and train that thing like never before *fingers crossed*. I might go big on the pot like you said and skip the scrog. I never done it, dont feel like doing it...i stay medicated

But yeah those all sound solid...ive heard neem is magic for buds. And as far as reasoning, I eat meat so i dont give a sh!t personally. Ive always grown organic and its been top quality, but lately ive been wanting to grow for the best taste & smell. From what ive been told properly grown veganics have the cleanest so i wanna try it out

Word! Well if you have no moral obligations...I would suggest adding some fish bone meal into that soil mix with the compost and castings...1tbsp per gallon of soil...added to that method above you will get smooth, stinky, tasty buds. That's how I grow my personal smoke lately. Homemade compost, homemade castings, kelp, neem cake, fish bone meal, and my recycled soil. And fulvic acid every once in a while as a soil drench, mostly as a foliar feed with kelp.

Help me choose which to grow first: Big Buddha Original Cheese (Exodus Cut UK Cheese x Cheese) or HSO Chemdawg? Sorry for hijacking, this will be quick.

Ohhhh man my favorite strain i ever grew was a chem99 seed that I got out of a bag of smoke I got back before I was growing. Unfortunately it was one of the first strains i grew so instead of keeping proper mother plants like I do now...I just would clone off of a clone off of a clone. And one day there was a labeling mishap with some clones, and then a two week power outage due to an icestorm. And because of the labeling mishap the wrong plant got saved...and that phenotype was lost to me forever :(

Needless to say... I have a special spot in my heart for Chemdawg varieties lol. Great conversation smoke strains while still providing a great potent pain relief quality.

I bought Chemdawg and UK Cheese due to their legendary status. Next month, going to buy a 10 of DJ Short Blueberry and maybe fiddle with crossing them.

No i will be growing the one plant in my apt and i will most likey set up a grow tent in a room. Im used to working with hps, but i want the better energy efficiency and lower light bill. And this grow is all for me to enjoy so i want the absolute best quality but i still want the yield to be up. And im sure i do, here in NorCal theres tons of farms

if you are in norcal, ditch the single plant idea man. We don't have plant restrictions
you'll get whole extra harvests in each yr by a shorter vege time.
and if you aren't doing veganics as a "religion" then I wouldn't bother with it, it's not any "cleaner" than a proper organic grow.
i'd make a normal recipe, and stuff four to six plants under each light.
and not to be mister negative, but a lb INSIDE is a lofty goal off one plant.
Off four or six plants topped to four colas?
hell yea you could, and you'd get more harvests per yr too.

plus the extra vege time (the added 6 hrs or more per day) are gonna add up, and then having a plant in a container for that long can lead to issues..
just be SURE you want to go this route..
Cuz i'd do it differently, but we are all different.

ok, just not sure why?
why not get 6 cuts of the same plant?
I got you on wanting to make a big plant, but i'd do that OUTSIDE man, you live in CA, we can grow some friggin TREES with our weather
I just don't see why you'd want to take a whole 9 to 12 months on making a plant that big, when you can squeeze two harvests in the amount of vege time you are lining up.
that being said... if you insist..
do a SCROG, and train the bejesus out of it, but I still don't see it pulling a whole lb...
 
Making me second guess myself, not cool fellas lol i guess i kinda would be losing out, but lets just say i did this, mastered it and than did it to a whole crop...idk there is pros and cons to it and its sort of an expirement i guess

Sorry to fill you will self-doubts brother! I'm a caregiver and agriculture consultant...it's my job to play around and figure out how to produce high yielding, high quality product. So trust me, I understand your desire to experiment and discover. I live for that feeling. So don't let us take that from you!

I'll just echo @greasemonkeymann and say that I find it more efficient to do four to six plants per light as opposed to one plant because you won't have to veg nearly as long. Cause while a one pound plant every five to six months would be nice. How does six plants producing four oz each every three months sound?
