I have a nug left from each strain I grew In different jars. The nugs keep getting smaller lol it was definitely tasty the superlemonhaze had a lemon pine to it and the purple wreck was exactly like eating a bowl of fruity pebbles lol

What kind of air pots? I would just use regular pots with holes in the bottom... Or smart pots if you don't plan on moving your plants around. 4 a light in 7 gallons is a good setup. Watering everyday can benefit but also is a pain in the ass. I prefer to water every 48hours. Make sure the pot is not heavy when you water .

what kind of veg time are we talking here, with all these huge numbers? has any one hit the 2+ number from og? my best is slightly over 1.5 per lamp. however vegging over 4 weeks doesn't make me happy.

I am doing 9k of all og the next round. Goal is 20. I'll let you know. I veg as long as it takes to make my room a jungle. Longer than 3 weeks . I don't use walk ways , sometimes it takes me 3 hours of crawling around on the ground to water. People say I over work myself, but this is the only way I am capable of pulling the numbers I am happy with. I have friends that pull 4+ from 4x8 trays with shit nutrients, I have no idea how they do it. They are badass'

I would assume those pots would only work well if you place them inside another pot? You can't have your roots exposed to light. I am not too familiar with these types of pots can anyone else help out?

Niether do they >.>
Ive met many growers who jus throw shit together and produce weight and quality. But wen asked how, they jus bought some shit and followed some directions. They have no idea what they feeding their plants. And don care so long as it works.

Dude, 1.5 a light from one of the original OG cuts is very respectable, IMO.
I hit higher numbers with og crosses like wifi, holy grail, deadhead og.
I'm always searching(from seed) for that higher yielding OG. It hasn't been easy
As I've said in another thread recently, I can more easily hit higher numbers with the OG's(and most other type of strains) when I grow more of a sog and more hydroponically.
I choose not to grow that way exclusively because of plant counts though. Funny thing is, I didn't give a shit about plant counts before prop215. In fact not till about 2005ish.
It's mainly trees for me, and most of my friends these days......more veg/training, with usually a little less yields. It ends up worth it to sleep a little better these days though, IMO

If i'm rocking 4 per 1k light,
No problem at all more learning for me haha
Its gonna be in a coco/perlite mix(70/30). In a regular 7gal(nursery) pot. I messed around with smartpots and coco. Didn't add any yield, but I had to water more often. I said fuck that.
Now, Smartpots with a peat based dirt like promix? That IS where the smartpots shine. From my experience.

It really does matter what strain. My wifi, I'll do 4, and pull 1-3/4. Deadhead and the holy grail, and my whirefirealien, i'll do 5 a light(10 per 4X8 tray), and pull about the same. But
Haven't been able to pull 1-3/4 from them strains when only doing 4.
Basically what I'm saying is: certain strains work better when growing trees. And you gotta learn and train your plants to fill the canopy.
Unfortunately, where i'm at, I have to grow the fire. But, i usually yield between 1.5~2 a light. 2 is what I strive for, even with the fire. But I usually end up a little disappointed. Lol
And yet, I'll try some new cuts here and there, from a club, and only pull 1-1/4. I usually cry when that happens
If I could grow the strains today, that I used to get away with back in the day, I would be pulling 2.5+ Everytime.
