Indoor Am I the only one doing large Auto Grows???

[grindin]

One reason you don't see big grows, because anyone who's really doing big grows longer than 3 years knows to keep their mouth shut about it.

Lol makes sense! I barely like showing off my 5 kids! I've always been told loose lips sink ships, and i like my boat to float! I love how you keep people in check TBM!

Hey Shit-talker! I've just about had enough of your flagrant disrespect. In less than 20 posts you have managed to piss-off about 4 or 5 members and several mods/admins.

One reason you don't see big grows, because anyone who's really doing big grows longer than 3 years knows to keep their mouth shut about it.

You have a measly three years experience growing 1 strain & you like to act like your Mr freakin Autoflower Encyclopedia Brown.

And if you think that the more expensive seeds are, the better they are - then you really are as big of an idiot as you make yourself out to be.

So keep up with your shit-talking and your visit here will be very short. Go join the other pot-kiddies over on Rollitup & grasscity- you'll fit right in.

We have no use for someone who can't be respectful towards other members. Disagreeing & debating is fine & is encouraged as long as proper respect is also shown.

If you wish to stay here, I suggest you keep your attitude & comments in check. There's a lot you still need to learn about growing cannabis, autoflowers and playing well with others....

You better believe my finger is on the button...

I was talking about the jems from joint dr. not the ones you sell. IDK how saying that the purple jems were a big hype is shit talking. Was not talking about your prices either. Was talking about joint dr. All there seeds were the same price and the purple jems were a lot cheaper. And I never said anything about more expensive seeds being better. I dont believe that at all. I made this thread cause I wanted to advanced my grow. So Im trying to find people who have a lot of experience so I can learn there techniques. If you read all my post you can see I asked certain people for info on their techniques. Like Hitmasn LST technique. I didn't make this thread to try and show off. I made this thread to try and find new techniques to better my crop. And some of the name calling I used was to people who pmed me saying nasty stuff. I already talked to one of the admins. and i've toned down all of my posts.

Edit: My grow is 100% legal. I dont know why I have to keep my mouth shut about it. If I had a warehouse with 20 lights I wouldnt be talking about it. 3k is not even close to a commercial grow

Okay Bro..........
members here are Very Protective of their Original JEM.....

don't know why.......hmm...must be the Breeder..


Sooooo...we will all Chill and Smoke one with you...:smokebuds:

Very sound advice TBM . I know in my state you can only have X number of plants in bloom ( think 4 or 5 ) and only a set amount of cured on hand ( 2 1/2 zips) and it can't be sold . This is all for a patient card. Kinda hard to have a "big grow" and stay within the law

 

[The Medicine Man]

Yea, I was kinda wondering what state that is with those medical regulations allowing that kind of plant count. Where I am I can have max 6 flowering per patient, with 5 patient max.

I think improvement on your setup will be hard the only thing i could say is
1. go hydro/aero as its the only missing link
2. maybes a strain change nothing of the top of my head finishs in 60 days I think your co2 is some thing to with it, maybes fast bud or speed devil do an f1 with lr2 this should give you a vigor boost if your own seeds are in breed sevral generations
3.could try mixing spectrums running hps to mh 3-1 ratio in flower and 1-3 in veg or just try 1-1 on a spinning light mover?
I used to advise on commercial grows but I dont since my youngest was born

"3.6 lbs from 2x1000w hps in 65 days is a succesful grow to me. I only had 60 plants when I did that. Plant count doesnt matter. Really depends on how many watts you're running and maximizing your grow area. 1.8lbs per 1000w is almost a gram per watt which is what professional growers get. But I have yet to see anyone get 2lbs per light with autoflowers. Only regular strains. Which prolly took twice as long."

also there 2.2lbs in a kg thats not near a gram per watt its about 13oz shy with c02 and hydro i have seen over 1.4g per watt on a photo strain but would love to see 1g per watt on an auto grow

I got a bit less than 1.2gpw on my last grow and it wasn't anywhere near ideal.
You should look into using coco (drip to runoff), or hydroton (drip to recirculate) and LST'ing your plants to maximise bud site exposure to light, not to mention redirecting auxins and creating huge bushes.
You don't need the 1000s. Using 600W/m2 you should get atleast 650-750 perm2 or so depending on phenotypes, using quality reflectors ofcourse (double parabollics , like the adjustawing). 6-9 plants per m2, depending on how big they get, in 6.5L pots. I run extra and worry about killing or removing plants when it gets to crowded.
I would ditch the H&G products. Atleast the additives. You can do much better with other brands, personally I've been using atami for base nutes since they are so concentrated, but I have to use some additives like Superthrive or Hesi supervit, but you really need em with all products to get the max. Also, look into using foliar spraying, especially triacontanol. If you get some Canna boost and use it as foliar you'd be amazed how much it will last you.
I also like to use Atami XL (has kelp, enzymes, micronutes, and sugars, humates) and Canadian Xpress headmasta (also a cocktail of flower and growth boosting hormones, micronutes, amino acids, pk, and silicon).
The products end up more than paying for themselves. If you apply things at the right time in the right way you can get atleast 20-30% increase in yield overall.
Thats pretty much what I can think of now. If you have any specific qs feel free to shoot a pm.

Decent result mate Take a bow and very well done probs the best result on here I take it your took a touch more than 60 days due to strains and yield a touch more with co2!!
I fancy a similar setup.

 

[PhammyDavis]

Yea I am switching from H@G to GH for just base nutes. I use Rapidstart for root growth. Also use superthrive along with GHs FluraNectar for taste. And use Drip clean from H&G to help avoid salt build ups. Im afraid to do hydro since i've never done it before and to me it seems dangerous cause there isn't much room for error with auto. Especially in the first 3 weks before they show sex. I've done lst but I did it around week 6 or 7. Basically just the very lower branches. HITMAN64 had an amazing LST plant he posted earlier in the thread. If your reading this HITMAN please share how you LST them to look like that.

Edit: Co2 is the key for better yields and faster growth. I think thats the reason why my plants mature so fast. One of my tents is a 4x8 and 6.5 tall. I go through a 20lb co2 tank in 5 days. Luckily I found a place that only charges $15 to swap them out. And they do $20 for a 50lb tank. Hell of a deal

 

[agito]

saying that coco is not far from what your doing now and a 20% yield boost is not uncommon a big flood and drain table would not go a miss and is quite forgiving.
The way see it it if your force feeding them c02 the only thing there waiting for is the delay in nutrient uptake
Try a single dwc if you can do that your there
