So wanted to see something about this strain and make a test grow with tons of light. So want to put two ladies at 14" tall under 2 1k hps agro sun lamps.. NFT with fifty stations but want to work out a few questions on yield and numbers of plants by doing this small two plant test grow.. Have everything dialed in without co2 and plan on letting the ladies go with some tieing of the branches only.. Will most likely take a clone or 5 as well.. So do you think that is to much light? Will test for yield mostly but also for finish size and all things bud and width and cola size.. Anyone has an opinion please let me hear from you......Botanicare nutes with overdrive at some point.....

Read my post. NO. I said, I was only tieing so if I was scrogging I would have said so.. I agree seems like wasted light to me. But I really want to see what these plants are able to do with everything just right and that means lots of light.. These ladies grow over 15' tall outside so I am just wondering....

well im sure you could grow that tall, but outside they grow for a season, a few months before they even flower, so if you wanna grow a plant for five months....but id try it, fuck it, just dont burn em.

I know how to use a light so doubt I will burn anything but yeah I want to see how the sides do with tons of light so maybe I can reduce the numbers from the previous grows. Had 24 finish last grow and took only 30ozs. Forrest of trimming too.. Want yeild numbers for a single plant sort of so I can get the best idea for numbers to reduce work and issues from to much plant material. With co2 it would be a totally different test though..

If you are using less plants I would definently lst them to get a better yield per plant. Even with 2k watts the bottom will still appriciate more light.

i always figured the easiest way to reduce trimming was with sog and numerous small plants. i dont have that kind of lighting available so have no idea how tall they can grow, but im guessing if you had 24, you prob used these lights. how tall did you let them go before?

They were put to flower at 13", finished in 62 days at 37 inches tall. I have tried small meaning really small put to flower and they don't like it. Must be around 11to 14 inches to start or will get small results from them.. The strain is not a test strain. I have grown 3 harvests from it... If co2 was 1500 would put them to flower at good roots and about 4 inches tall and more plants. Then I would trim the up big time at around 3 weeks flower to make single to two cola plants but don't have co2 yet... This strain gets very bushy and with a 8x8x7h area they just take over and you can miss all sorts of issues in that jungle till to late mate... Am using one agro 1k now and will think about the other after they get bigger.. They triple just about in flower their height.. Never really tried lst but might do some here. Spread em way out..
