yeah deffo. it was only 12inches when i flipped so i didnt think it would be an issue. i was wrong. never seen growth like it. at first i though it would be crappy and have a little bud on each branch,
when grown in hydro does it lose 75 percent of the weight still when dry? or does it lose more than it would in soil? first shot at hydro so im not sure what to expect. tell you what though the buds look so much better than the soil plants, bigger and frostier. i think ive been converted lol.


i like the look of yours, im setting up a perpetual in 4 1.2m tents. i aim for 6 plants under each 600. i would love to get plants like yours, would be nice and snug in a tent. good work.
you will man, just gotta veg them fuckers for longer, and make sure to keep em tied down, it's all about light intensity, the more, the better. but yea, hydro should give you more yield with less flowering time ( a couple weeks or so) opposed to soil, i just love soil though, I like gettin my dickgrippers dirty lol

Hey guys, something to think about that I have experienced. I ran two identical clones side by side, I topped one and left the other to grow natural. Both under the same light, same pot size, same veg period, water, feed, when weighed in they were the same weight to within a gram. Now I am not saying that topping in some situations doesn't give a higher yield, but a plant produces the same quantity of product no matter how you grow it imo (given the fixed factors above - veg, pot size, strain type, lighttype, water/feed). As you know. lights on leaves are important for buds to grow big. Some may disagree, but on the experiment I ran it said otherwise. It's in my old journal I think (although I probably deleted the pics)

my twee cents for the day.

there you go, you need more veg time. More veg time = less time for flower = less harvests per year, so doesn't always yield more. All factors of production need to be taken into account, imo.

you do raise a good point, but if you wanna veg for a long time the vertical height of your untopped monsters will decrease your light intensity at the bottom of them, thus diminishing your true potential yield, thats why i say the keep them fuckers low, so everything has about the same intensity

I don't mean to be a dick with these comments btw, lol just throwing my opinion in. You got to remember when giving people advise that the way you do it may not always suit that other person, so you got to be accurate with analysing that persons situation before advise is given. Vegging for months on end is okay, but what if you don't have second rooms for veg areas, for example. SOG is probably a more productive method in this instance.

....christ, I think I have sun stroke, lol. Off to try and vomit up this book of growing weed that I seemed to have swallowed for lunch.

Very true, but again you are altering one of the factors in the production so have to change one of the other elements in the grow to maximise the yield due to other factors being fixed (i.e. in indoors it is normally space and light intensity) Thinking about it, if my maths was better I am sure I could come up with an equation relating to lights, space, veg time, plant yield, etc, to assess what is the best way to grow. "Apply this equation to your grow space to maximise yield" (that would be said in one of the big booming voices that advertises things, haha)....right, back to my vodka orange....and getting on with skiing up, the tray has been in front of me for 20 minutes now.

OK, here we go. This is what happens when people make comments about people who don't use the multi-quote. I probably missed a page but didn't go back to see it cause I had read so many posts already when I realized it. A good many of us have our settings on max. This multi-quote is going to take up a lot of space, so get comfy and settle in for a good long, and probably boring to some, read. Just had my first sample of some blackjack, the tiny trim from the bottom of the plant that never amounts to much. So let me start my ramble by saying, DAMN, I'm gonna' cry you guys have touched my emotions in such a very deep and humble way, sniff, sniff. Hey mr west, pass one of those tissues please.

hydro shop guys can be funny.....just because you are a mechanic, doesn't make you a good race driver!
Hell it doesn't even make ya' a good mechanic.

ok guys i was bs ing at the hydro shop and the guy told me that 4 plants is way to many under a 600 watt seriously i have done 6 plants under a 250 with little more than qp dried wieght how many plants do u think is healthy for a 600 watt hortilux bulb
I run two lights fourteen inches apart. I keep two plants under each light and two in between the lights for a total of six in three gallon smart pots and I consider it crowded.

hahahahahahaha, thank you Duchie, I need to dry my eyes, (thankfully that's all)

Happy Friday indeed.

Peace and hot cross buns,

DST
I got it and thanks for sharing duchie. It was the response to something you posted about good friday, you know the cross celebration thing that made me realize I hadn't read every post, oh well, the world will continue to turn.

It was an Easter joke guys. Cutting her down on Good Friday to find her gone after 3 days?...get it? Oh brother, tough crowd. ;)
I got it but I liked the original description you gave of good friday. I was raised catholic and attended catholic school for nine years. It still boggles my mind about religion, I guess I'll never understand.

Whats good 600 peeps. Been on a hiatous of sorts since the harvest. A long time aquaintance of mine is doing some tattling so to be safe from that pussy ass BITCH!!! i have gone legit. For some reason the midwest seems to be under an intense crackdown on MJ. Everyday theres new storys flying of 420 raids and the like. It really urkes me that almost no attention at all is giving to the herion trade and the numerous death almost daily, instead they want to destroy happy peaceful pot smokers lives. :finger:

So im patiently awaiting the donut eating pigs armed with a snitches account of what he supposedly saw, and heres their big bust they are hoping for hahahah FUCK THE POLICE!!!:bigjoint:



Here we have 3 diffrent varieties of Tomatoes. Bradley Pink, Black Krem, An exotic variety from somewehere the TT. And some VSRP Very special red peppers.

The Clones :lol:

Some Dank Ass Bradley Pink Tomatoes:bigjoint: To slow for me piggies hahaha.


Some cured up Timewarp goes down real good with some Sam Smiths organic hard apple cider MMMMMM.

All said i am feeling actually quite relieved for the first time in 4 years. Got me enough smoke to last all year and the outdoor is crackin like a mofo.

Badman wins hahaha peace brothers and sisters 1BMM
Hello my friend, nice to see you are preparing for your visit from the po-po and I'm very happy for you that you have a stash to hold you over. Fuck em'.

Hey guys, the shnizz that is getting grown on this here little old thread is some of the whackiest greenery around. Not more than a week ago I had someone from Spain who has a shop chewing me arm about some of the smoke I had (various DPQ's Engineers Dream, Bleeseberry, blah blah, and talking in anticipation of other strains coming through - the word is out!). I got very good response I felt from another crew of boys with a seed company already going with entries into various cups. And I know pictures are always hard to tell 100%, but unless you are a "no seeing dank mofo", then the sticky that gets thrown up here is as good if not better than what I see on a daily over here.

I think our Thread of late has been held together by some solid people who take time out of their lives to make sure that everyone knows that they are out there, and that they are thinking about us, and vice versa!! Think about that for a minute, that is mad, but it is wonderful and fills me full of joy. A lot of people who started with the 600 are no longer with us (although some creep, and some are still on RIU - I see you, lol) but I have got true love for everyone who has taken time to post on this thread, and even to those who try and be a bit off tone, or don't always get the vibe straight away, you are still adding to this family and making it grow stronger.

Thanks again for everything, and thanks to RIU for giving us the portal to do this on.

Happy growing.

So this is it, this is what kicked me in the gut, very pleasantly I might add. DST, thank you. This post literally was giving me chills when I was reading it. I am so fucking proud to be a member of this family. Pardon my french but for some reason that word just seemed to fit what I am trying to get across. We have something special here boys and what makes it even better, we realize it and share it freely. Just don't come here and start swinging your dick around, you won't get a pleasant reception. I have learned much and hope I have contributed to another learning something or at least open a mind or two here to not get caught up in the 'you must' do this way of thinking about our hobby. Thanks to everyone who helps make this the best thread on RIU. Peace to all my fellow stoner brothers.

greetings fellow rodger 600 watters :) been a while lol. hope u have a great weekend everyone, just making some canna butter :)

Las :leaf:

edit *cough* nice comment big D :)
and hello to you too my friend, nice to see you again, hope all is well.

Happy growing bro D! Im a proud 600 member ;-)

:peace: 600!
Aren't we all? And if we're not, shame on you.

Still a proud 600 watter here ;) Cheers D and 600 fam!!!
amen

okay, we'll leave the contest open until midnight 4-24 Pacific (Saturday Night)

:peace:

a democracy that works, imagine that?

I believe Wallynutter started pr0n in here. Its just bud porn / pics of our ladies :-) equipment pr0n lol pretty much just pics showing off what you got ;-)

I wonder what happened to ol' wally???
Good question, maybe he's on one of the space probes?

I think Wally went a bit barmy army, then got into a bit of trouble and had to start behaving himself...if I remember correctly, I believe a place of infirm minds was involved along the way...to much fasting and taking mushrooms probably, j/k. But he came back and said he was cool but wouldn't be around, I think!?!? Anyhoo, hope he is ok, the crazy little dude.
A bit? I tried to pm him a couple of times, he's gone, literally and figuratively.

thats sad... if its true... I know crazy people all to well.
Hey! I'm a crazy people and I take offense to that statement.

Saskush.

nasty, i need to get a new camera to do these gals more justice. oh well, another reason for me to get drunk today..... got the stank ass-low megapixel-china mass-produced - camera blues
And finally, I got a new camera. It hasn't helped me I'm still a shit photographer.

Peace my family.

Not if you grow vertically ;)

This is why I just swing my dick around while I'm at home alone. Quite a sight really.

I love it. Saskush, hahaha.

I don't have enough coin to do a successfull vetical grow, believe me, if I was rich I would, but then we are talking about a few more lights for designated vertical zones aren't we, in my world we are anyway, and that is just not the style of someone who doesn't have much coin and wants the most efficent means IMO

I was just meaning that if you grow vertically (cheaply or baller style) the bottom of the plants will still receive a lot of light. But then again, the back of the plant is shaded like the bottom would be in flat growing. I try to take that away by trimming quite a bit.

Having done a few plants straight into 12/12 I trully believe if numbers are not an issue, this is the quickest and most effective way to produce yield in short spaces of time. And if you are buying clones then even quicker, because you miss the first couple of weeks the plant takes to grow up. And that is veretical or non vertical, horizontal, anti gravity, whatever, lol.

good mornin/afternoon/night 600!
HU- nice multi quote :-) not so hard is it? :lol:
:peace: to you to bro
indecline- that is a monster plant bro! hydro does seem to do the trick, but Iv yet to taste the smoke compared to soil in a controlled smoke session :lol:

Jig- first off, lol. ok, I do think vert growing is the most efficient but a 4x4 section is probably too small for 600ds right?


it must be easter...

Easter madness is kicking in...woooohooooo, so are these bongs!!!!

whodat, my space is only 4x4 and I got a couple of 6's ;)
