ok take your best guess---- there's a total of 27 ladies in my homemade aeroflo that i named my ghettoponic machine. 3x400w. hps. gh nutes and shit loads of ph down. haha oh and they're 20 inches tall on average and 4 weeks and 2 days into flower. fo shizzle!


You didnt post the strain of MJ that is but I would say 27 plants at 1-2oz per plant, I would guess in between 2.5-3lbs, or 40-48oz. Who knows with a large yeilding strain you could get easily 4-6lbs. They look great man I like your setup alot, I would give my leg to have a setup like that.+rep

no prob man, i'll build a list of stuff you'll need when i get back home. nothin to it. i think 250 is an overshoot actually. more like 200. glad you like it man

yer gonna get a buttload in a while:dunce: :hump: nice!!!:weed: what stain?


in 3 weeks and 5 days you will yield enough to smoke to yer heart's content....for a while


i acctually love this thread FOR PEEPS WHO REALLY HAVE THIS IMPOSSIBLE QUESTION.

rules of thumb. the lower the lumens of your light source, the earlier you want to put them in flower. donk420 knows... SOG = more weed per unit of time, but more work too. stoned ...rambling...what was the question? :eyesmoke:

i probably didn't state it very well.

If you run small wattage grows, you do not get as good light penetration as with a higher wattage lamp. here are 2 examples.

grower one uses a 400W hps for flowering the other uses 150s. the optimal area of illumination for the 400 watt lamp is much greater ~ it can be between 1 foot and four feet away (this is theory, i know with a cool tube yada yada lol). with the 150s it needs to be between 5 inches and 2 feet.
the upshot is you want to keep the plant a size that can be illuminated efficiently by your equipment.

BTW i've been doing this since '83~i now run VERY small, i used to grow the big uns ha ha :blsmoke:

Sorry,I saw a post asking for pictures and I was trying to get the thread going.
I started flushing yesterday and I'll take them down in a week or so.I haven't tried any out of this batch yet,but a friend of mine grew this strain before and I absolutely loved it.

Thank you to whoever repped me
