COB Grow Battle [Starts Sept 1st 2017]

[Proph]

Hey guys,

I have 9 plants on the run now and I potted them today into 1,5L pot´s with coco for their next couple of days. What would you recommend as final pots either 6, 15 or 22L Air Pots? What I have seen so far, you guys use 15L more or less for the Autos - right? As I said I´m not experienced with Autos - so may you can help me and give me a good advice.

The rules say I have to nominate ONE of the plants as the conqueror till the end of the month - right?

Cheers

9 plants! Thats a lot of fire you got going. As far as the competition is concerned, you have until Sept 30th to pick the plant you will compete with. As far as final pot size, a few factors are at play.. Mainly how much space you have to work with. If you have the square feet and height, why not go big! The 2nd thing to consider is how much time you have and the genetics involved. The bigger the pot, the bigger the plant, which equals longer finishing times. This comp ends December 4th. So you've got roughly 12 weeks, which should be more than long enough time to use a 5-7 gal pot. I use 3 or 5 gal pots.. If the genetics are a medium size with a quick finish (65-75 days from seed), I'll use a 5gal.. If the genetics are on the larger size and longer finish (85+) I'll use a 3 gal. They seem to be best for maximizing the space/height I have to work with, but is all personal choice!

@NorwegianGrower @Slater @Prophetiko Thank you guys for the quick an helpful answers. I have a 90x90cm tent (35x35 inch) which is 190cm high (75inch). The 15L Aiirpot sounds best to me, I think i will try it with those ones. Would be 4 of them too much in the 90x90 tent? At the moment my plan is, to put two Bubba Kush, one Jack Herer and one Gorilla Glue into the tent and see which one performs best and nominate one of them for being my "gladiator"

I saw @Belivitez will light them with 24h the first weeks, would you all recommend this or rather go 20 or 18?

Thank you in advance for your help!

No problem buddy!
When it comes to how many you can fit, it`s up to you! I prefer smaller yields per plant and have more different flavors. In that case, 4 is good. If you want to grow monsters, 1-2 is enough for that grow space.

For the light schedule, there is actually many indications that a 24/0 light schedule during veg, will increase growth during vegging. 24/0 light during flower however has not shown any benefits.
I will personally run 24/0 for the first 2-3 weeks of my veg, before going over to 20/4 for flower.

@Ivern this is just a test

Way to go!

Lost the Silverback.......it's been 3days since I have been in the garden and she looked like she wilted,when her humidity dome fell off. I promptly planted an f2 of the same strain but idk if that counts as germed? Either way the other 4 looked good.

I run a 90 x 90 and i would go with just the 2 plants ( I have learned the hard way), its a grow battle you will want the space... My tip go for the Jack , if you nail it and get a couple of good phenos Jack can get big and chunky. If it GG fastbuds... meh for a battle but a great smoke...do not wake and bake.
