You should be able to pull 2oz a peice dry if the pots are large enough, I can pull 3-3.5oz a pop out of 6L pots in coco under a 400w.

i'm using nothing in the way of chemicals and am not adjusting the ph, never have done. the water we have here is bang on neutral and chlorine free.
just a good organic soil in the way of plant magic , bio grow throughout veg and i think i'm gonna grab some plant magic old timers bloom as the ratios look very good, decent amount of Nitrogen and it has added magnesium

Have you PH'd the water fresh from the tap to see if it's "Bang on neutral"?

i have mate. i used to work for a pool & spa company on pool maintanence and tested it several times. although it can vary depending on the weather. but the soil acts as a buffer on it's own and from my understanding the bio bizz nutes do lower the ph somewhat.
never had any major lockouts on any of my plants.

So what does it come out of the tap at?

And you understand how and why the medium PH changes throughout he grow right?

ph was of first couple of weeks, only fed it twice once was 0.5ml per litre then 1ml per litre (biobizz grow). noticed this just under 2 weeks ago maybe thought it was a cal/mag def so added 0.5ml per litre of magne cal+ a week ago and its still spreading am i being impatient or could this be under-fert maybe? im running out of ideas here anyone got any ideas its bugging me now....

not really no, as i say never used ph adjustments and with growing all organic i wouldnt want to go adding chemical ph down.

well i first thought calcium def but my magne cal dont seem to of done anything maybe i didnt give it enough might try up the dose next time unless anyone has a better idea?

This striping in between the veins is a Magnesium deficiency.
And the spotting here at the tips is a very early sign of a Calcium deficiency.
Fix your PH and feed more cal/mag.

Epsom salts and a bottle of 'Canna Mono' Calcium, cheaper and stronger than off the shelf cal/mag supplements.

looks like you have had a ph lock out issue affecting calcium and boron uptake which has been adjusted by extra fert rather than pH correction, now you have high N affectin phos uptake and your root zone may need more oxygen. Remedy water with PH and temp adjusted water (H2O2 may help) til they pick up

well my magne cal ses 0.5-1ml per litre and i did 0.5 so will up the dose next time round and hope for the best i guess

Right, I'm going to try and explain this so everybody reading understands but I have to ask you logical questions to do so.
Don't get me wrong I'm not trying to be an arse and IC3 would just say that I'm a knowitall cunt on a soapbox but it really is for the benefit of all.
Perpetuated forum myths and failure to understand simple chemistry is what causes a lot of problems that need not be.
Before I can explain I need you to define to me your understanding of what 'organic' and 'chemical' mean?
