I think 3 #'s in a 4x4 is a pretty tall order. 2 #'s would be well above the average Joe. I get 20-28 zips out of 4x4's usually, and they are pretty crammed. I do use LED's that only crank 480-675 watts each. In 4x4's though. Maybe a double ended HPS 1000 watt hood if you can keep it cold enough, and CO2, and dialed in somebody could probably pull it off. I am still shooting for 2 though.

Im happy to get one per 4x4. :laugh:

Hey now. I dream of 2 #'s and have 23 z's tops as yet. When I get there I'm going to look to 3 #'s I'm pretty sure. I don't believe in sabotaging myself by taking off my rose colored glasses!

I'm fairly new to growing, I'm actually close to my first harvest (going to attempt a clone from the plant before we harvest it.) Started two plants in dirt just to get them going, I was having a hard time getting them started in hydro. The clones are all in hydro, and even though some have had less grow time, they will probably out produce the mother plant. I've already got a few ideas from here, I hope to get a lot more.

Hey, thanks for the feedback everyone!

I am going to keep my goal at 3 pounds in a 4'x4' - but set it for sometime in the future.

Unfortunately, with the two runts I am running right now, there is no way I'm going to make it this time though.

I have decided to start tracking numbers on the nine cardinal parameters - I will keep trying to dial in the environment - and keep searching for strains and training techniques to help me achieve my goals.

So far, I have gone from Soil to Coco in the past year - and I think the next step is DWC or RDWC to help with root temp and root O2.

Also, I want to try CO2 in a bit - but that means a completely sealed room - and I want to get my growing technique down before I take my next leap.

Anyway, if I cut a hole in the top of the tent, and put in a few skylights - then that would definitely make my goal a lot easier

Love the colors on that WW - stunning!! Congrats on the harvests P! After your camping trip, those should help restock the coffers. :Rasta:

Excellent hauls but I hope they don't take on the smell of the boots in there!

Here's the bidness...

Whoops... forgot one. LoL

InTheShed · Mar 4, 2020

Getting tight in there! It's a soon-to-be-jungle.

It's a lot easier when I keep em small. Space might get tight, but I can manage them.

I find that they fit perfect if I flip when they're about the size of a soccer ball.

Funny when ya see the whole space though... lol

I could probably fit double, but it would be a complete nightmare.
:meditate:

Haha!
No clue! Both my boys are tech-y and my daughter plays softball. I'm about clueless on soccer.

I just know if I wait til basketball size, they need some arm crackin' later. LoL

Id say congrats on the harvest, but your harvesting like every week or so now....and it would just be annoying after a while.
Keep the wheels of perpetualism greased bro cha cho!

Looks like Bubba Kush and both White OG will get moved over to flower soon.

I just gotta make some changes over there to accommodate. Right now I only have 1 vacant drip line port. I'll be adding a second 8-way distro head today. Hopefully I can get them all settled in with a fairly even canopy & drop the lights a bit closer.

Time to play canna-tetris. LoL

Heard a great line on TV last night, it may be added to the signature. LoL

Derbybud · Mar 5, 2020

I like that. I'll just try to be a normal piece then.

StoneOtter · Mar 5, 2020

Normal for me too please, no wait i want to be exceptional!

Chris Scorpio · Mar 5, 2020

I'm far from normal

FARRRRRRRRRRR
