You read my mind! I was already thinking about adding that to the mix or by another blackstar 240
800 watt should get you some tops like that youtube vid. I think they where using 180 watt ufo, every 2 foot the guy said. Thats 720 watt on 4 x 4.
You would have 80 watt more and less plants.

Ya the $100 of is bomb diggity! I can tell the og is going to be strong, because it stinks already into 21 days into veg! The clones were not in the best of shape when I got them from the dispensary, but I wanted to fix them because of the strain. 5 feet? Daaamn! I think I do need another blackstar!!

The reason i would get another light is because of the footprint. I might just get the blackstar 240 because my 300 won't be ready for another 28 days. So it would be 500+240=740 watts and a total power draw of 437 wAtts. I wanted to flower by this Friday so I could have it done by my trip in august and keep them a little shorter. But I might just take your advice and wait till it feels right (around day 30-35 veg)

Nice, we are on the same page almost then! I just checked my grow tent and about to put pics up. I don't have enough room for 5" tall plants! 4.5 feet maximum. My tent is only 6" tall. How tall were your plants when you flowered them? Whatever height they were Ill have to flower sooner!

Day 21: So I was planning to start flowering possibly this weekend, just so they would be done by the time I went on my trip August 5th. So I figured I would flower a little early. Now I hear from mongo that his $100 OG got 5" tall? Im really going to have to flower soon then!

i put them in at about 15 inches, then ran a transition week with no multi zen. just teas and a&b,drip,roots. so i went almost 9 weeks. i think i went a little to long. they grow like monsters. i used alot of stakes also.

What?? You flowered them at 15 inches and they grew to 5"!! Im in trouble then! Did they look all lanky like mine during early Veg? They are filling up now, but in the beginning they were lanky, but not weak. Still strong main stem. What kind of light were you using?
