Third 600w Medical Grow (Pineapple Express & LA Woman)

[Someguy15]

Awesome bro! 0.6 GPW is super, i currently get somewhere around 0.2.......

Great grow man, looking frosty!

Hope it smokes well, take care!

Thanks, u 2 man.

It looks very tasty. It's good you met the same yield as last and you even had 2 weeks shorter veg time. Did you do anything different this grow than last?

Not much at all really. I left them alone more this time though lol

ya 11-14 seems to be the magic number with a 600, but next grow, probably going with 2600 watts in flowering( going to use a MH in my 600 with two 1000 watters with HPS., then a 400 w with a CMH bulb for veg and so T-5's for cuttings and mothers whilst the the clones are vegging, all gonna have 8 weeks veg for MONSTERS haha. going to try for 4 lbs from it. which would probably be around .68 GPW. i think it is manageable, are you ever going to add another light into flower?

How many plants? Vertical?

mm

oh yea, thats tight. have you seen a mixed spectrum grow?

Shrubs was one that I saw, but not many... Most people run all hps, but I've always heard 75% HPS / 25% MH is best mix in flower. That's kinda what inspired me to get the dual arc super blue, I think it will be worth the money.

 

[ElectricPineapple]

well, nothing will beat a mixed spectrum. Trichomes are the sunscreen of the plant , and MH emits a lot of UVB, which increases trichome production.

 

[Someguy15]

Yea I considered using reptile UVB bulbs at one point in 2 hours doses a few times a day, but seems like a lot of hassle and money for little to no gain, and the real possibility of burning the shit out of my plants or myself lol

ya, well i already had some, from my snake, so i just went ahead and used them.

I bet it's hard to decipher much change huh? how far away, what wattage and how often do you run it?

 

[ElectricPineapple]

ya, well it is because i didnt run a control, but i could ntice an increase in trich production from it though. i did them in 5-10 minute intervals, 8 inches from the tops, about 3-4 times a week. if you hold it closer, you get more UVB to the buds, and dont have to run it as long.

This was day 1 of flower, I'd say they were 10-12 inches at this pt. After 8 weeks of flower with 600 hps they were maybe 25-28 inches tall, and the 3 yielded about 6 oz. You could def. get more with a better veg though, I had to make do with flouros that sucked at the time.
