Very nice grow not 2 get all in ur shit understand if you don't want to say, but I'm curious to what the approx yield was. Looks like alot for a 400 watt.

yeah its no problem I came out with about five and a half zips from the 400 it was alright I think I could do better like I said.

What size were the bags you grew in?
Sorry if I missed it, I scanned the thread and didn't see it.

The 6 under the 400 on the left were 6 clones in 3 gallon pots.

I bought another 400 halfway threw the grow once I kicked the 6 into flowering I bought 4 more clones and put them in 5 gallon containers.

Cool,
Seems like a shorter veg combined with lst did pretty good.
Can you post a few more shots of the buds in flower if you have some?
I use a 400w in a perpetual grow, so instead of lst I top a few times while in veg.
My plants usually veg for two months and i'm growing in two gallon perfect pots.
Here's my current four. The fifth grow of cuttings from their mother. Vegged 2 mos. each.
They range from day one going into flower to about four weeks of 12/12
I believe the tallest plant in these shots is 24 inches tall. Pics are two weeks old, just got my camera fixed today.

Yeah for sure man these are the only four pictures that I didn't upload I have a terrible upload rate what do you use to veg with your setup and about how much square feet do you use to achieve the perpetual grow are your mothers/clones/veg plants all in the same room I have wanted to pull off a perpetual but just don't have enough enclosed space available.

Hey funktions are you still here buddy how did that harvest go man??

I use two rooms. One for mom, rooting, and vegging. The other for flowering.
In veg I use 5x 27w cfls for everything on 24/7.
Flowering space is 42" x 24" x 4' (can go as high as needed though)
with 400w hps.Here's a few of my current flowering plants, and the next four cuttings before and after rooting. They will be pruned and get a first of many toppings tomorrow. They will veg for two months before going into 12/12.
Happy growing

very nice they look like their happy to me wow only 5 CFL's for a mother clone and vegetation are they all at the same time?

Usually I have a mom and either four plants vegging or four rooting with her.
I like to keep mothers in one gallon pots to keep them under 20 inches tall, but i've had as many as five plants in two gallon perfect pots vegging under these lights.

Even with this little light, a two month veg, and plants topped three to four times gives me plants no bigger than 15-18 inches tall when they start 12/12.
The plant pictured below I took my latest cuttings from the week before she went into 12/12 and shows the typical size plants i put into flower after two months vegging.

right on that is pretty clever they look really healthy for the minimal light in there keep doing your thing!
