i was wondering how big a difference the lights make. i'm in the middle of my first harvest and all the buds are tiny. i have 11 plants and i'll be lucky to get 4 ounces! there's a lot of buds, but they're just no big. we used 1,000 watt MH m bulbs, we had 2, but one broke in a 15 x 6 sq. ft. area. so i drew them all close in to the light. they have never gotten any bigger, now they are turning brown ready to pick, but small. what is the single most important thing anyone can do to grow the buds bigger? bigger pots? different nutrients? i used a hydroponic solution for big buds. or is it the red spectrum lights i didn't have. also another question; 12 hours on and off didn't work. after 5 weeks i cut the light down to 8 hours. i did this for 3 more weeks. then i increased the lights to 11 hours on, this change seemed to speed up the rippening. thanks for any help, i've felt like a failure and it's taken since may. thanks everyone for being a part of this great site!

the 8 hours on will make your buds smaller as your plants arent getting full light, and how long did you veg these plants?? from what you say it sounds like you put them on 12/12 in the first place, which will only yield you small plants as they are going to flower as soon as possible and not veg very much.

it was just the way you said it then. but the 8 hours of light probobly didnt help them, and maybe with a combo of that not having red spec. lights did it.. i don't know im still a noob grower. 8 hopurs of light for 3 weeks though, iveh eard of doing it for one or two days but not 3 wks
 
well yeah i was def happy with the amount and quality i got, but im sure there are a few things i can do to make the yeild higher and the quality even better. but im setting up a space to start 15 merville blueberry plants. hopefully ill figure out how to clone then well be wipin with cotton. but once i get all setup ill send some pics and list of lights/nutes/all that. but everyone thanks for the props. it was definetly woth it. laters, fire it up!!!!!!!!!!!!!1:joint:
 
id say ur good for a qp, ur gonna lose 70 to 75 weight by drying it.So figure 75 percent taken away from ur pound leaves u with 25 percent sooo about a quarter pound.
 
Woah, i didnt read that far, NINE OUNCES? Ru sure? U must have not dryed em out long enough. Seriously u should make sure u dryed em completely or u may be sorry later (mold), but if ur sure u did, well let me say CONGRAGULATIONS! ur now in possesion of a shit ton of weed :) Man i could only Hope to yeils that much from my two plants i got going right now. How long did u veg em 4? Im pretty much doing every thing the same way u have explained, same nutes and lights, different enviroment tho.
