Hey party people !! i was wondering if its a good idea to use the rooting hormones powder to feed my plants to grow bigger roots ?? I don't see why it would be a problem the bigger the roots the bigger my tree right ?

Will i get more buds that way?? :blsmoke: or is the yield determined by my lights?? i currently run a 150watt hps and two 42 watt cfl i have a small area so temp was a problem for me with the 200watt hps.

Am i right to say that i need 30,000 lumes to get a good yield ?

i dont know about the rooting powder part of your question but imo the best way to get more roots is to use a bigger container. if you get too many roots in a small container your gonig to be rootbound and that is NOT good. about your yeild i have no idea what you think is a good yeild only that you can expect around .5 grams per watt but i prefer to plan on getting .3-.4 per watt so im happy with anything over and not dissapointed if i only get .3

Hi i have tried this before on some plants and not on others together and it didn't make a lot of difference so i wouldn't bother... but i have just started another grow and am planning on using a root booster from canna it sounds good to me and got to be better than plane rooting hormone...

and as for you quote on 3 grams per watt thats impossible !!!... say if you was using a 600w light which i am that would be 1800 grams at the end which is 64oz or their abouts ( 64oz ) under a 600w light get real !!!
