do you have a yield to post or would you rather assume you know i dont know what im doing? im not gonna give you free legal advice, you can pay for it like i did, but i suggest you do so, so your ignorance doesnt precede you.

great numbers man! i checked out your grow, looks awesome. i could tell you were using 4 lights. what size are they? looks like 3 plants per 2 1000s. is that rigth? how long are you vegging them beforre the flip? are you super cropping or anything?

Nice grow, Buddy! Looking legit, sorry to hear you had to break it down and move, but at least there were no convictions! Definately be following this thread, even if I'm lurking most of the time...

I grow perpetually in DWC and basic RDWC(first run in RDWC, still transferring the system over, 3 buckets at a time), water and air temps WAY to high, and plants crowded way too close together. I veg 3 weeks under CFL's and get anywhere from 2-4 oz per plant depending on strain...They usually finish out between 2 and 3 feet tall. I flower plants in sets of three, with three sets in flower at a time, so I'm harvesting 3 plants every three weeks. Also, flower for 9 weeks total...So at any given time I have 3 plants that are 1-3 weeks in flower, 3 plants that are 4-6 weeks in flower, and 3 plants that are 7-9(harvested :) ) in flower. 9 buckets total under 1200w (3 x 400w)

Just built a 2' x 3' ebb n flow, gonna build another next to it for a 3' x 4' footprint...Gonna give the whole flood and drain SOG thing a shot eventually...After I get my mothers going, that is, cause I'm gonna need a LOT of cuttings.

nice, Meta! ive always liked the idea of a perpetual grow, but on a rdwc system you always have to sacrifice, by having the same nute regiment no matter what stage you are in. i find that limiting. i want to max every strain wich is why i only grow out 1 strain at a time. im on a monthly cycle, or about to be anyway. i have a veg room which i use for a month and a flower room that will have 2 8 light 44 bucket systems in it. that way i can havrvest every month and still max out each individual strain.

Hey bh i get where ur comeing from man so dont take me wrong but as u get comfortable with ur dwc and gain more grow confidence with the system im confident u will find it aint no thing haveing multiple strains with different feed schedules shareing the same res as long as they feed similar with minor adjustments its not much different than any other hydro grow in the same situation but prolly easier its all about organizeing and growing strains that share similar feed patterns and putting them together as they grow at least thats what im finding anyway as i get things dialed in.. good luck all. peace

yeah but when i go to flush i have plants suffering. when i add plants to flower their first week they suffer from to much nutes, or the later girls suffer for not having enough. new plants in flower dont require bloom boosters and need more nitrogen.... hella reasons why dwc and perpetual dont go together. if its just your own smoke who cares, but thats not really my situation.

Is that dry bud???? That's got to be a record for indoor. Average is 1 to 3 zips per plant

even with a half a gram per watt average youd be getting 4 oz's + per plant ( 4 plants seems to work best under a 1000w in dwc)

Someone said they get 8 to 12 oz per plant. I then said ” that must be a record” the average is 1 to 3 oz per plant indoor!

its all way to subjective. if you want to categorize strains, veg time, wattage, temps, and such, then you can say there is some kind of avg per style,situtaion, strain, whatever..... saying 1 to 3 oz is avg is just arbitrary.
thats why i ask people to post their yields with critical info, like strain, veg time, water temps, air temps and the like.

your avg may be 1 to 3 oz, thats not even an avg its a range. but please be a little more specific when tossing weights out there so we have a context.

That's why its called an average, read any book or talk to any grower. The average yield for indoor is 1 to 3 zips. Of choose there is a high side and low side. I just don't buy the 8 to 12 oz dry.

Your in cali and don't believe HP plants... where have you been for like 5 years man? Veg time is key to any harvest. Ignorance is bliss. put one plant under a 400 and veg for 10 weeks, get a flat canopy, do your nutrients correctly see what you get. Even that at .5g/watt is almost a hp.... lol
