Ya he definitely put a pretty penny into but he got that back the first run for sure... he said he pulls 36lbs every cycle, insane.

They're doin good, I got a bunch of pics from yesterday but I just haven't gotten around to resizing them so they don't take forever to load. But ya I vegged under 1 mh and 3 hps simply because I had to. I got a t5 but i only got one its a 4ft 8 bulb one but its not big enough for 8x8. But hps seemed to work fine they grew fast as shit n not a lot of stretch like most people complain about veggin with hps. Next run ima grab another 4ft 8bulb t5 tho and veg under that to save on electricity.

That's wats up... ever look into or think about goin coco? Minus having to ph down everythin its so much better than soil. This is technically my first indoor grow but I helped by uncle for years with his and set up a few for my boys so I've seen plenty of plants grown in soil indoors n the growth rate in coco blows soil out the water, you should check into I think u will be pleased with the results. And ya I'm hoping for 2oz a plant on the blue dreams and gods gift and an ounce per gsc which would give me just over 6lbs. i dont see no reason by lookin at my plants why i wont get at least that much. Anythin more than that would be icing on the cake and anything less than 4 would be a disappointment for me. I want bare minimum a pound per light. But we'll see how things go... they're lookin really good packin on a bunch of crystals and smellin better everyday. I'll try to stop being lazy n post pics tomorrow.
36lbs off how many lights? He would need at least 16k watts I would guess if he is all dialed in if not more I would guess. That some major league stuff there.

I'm using general hydros cocotek bales this run but I'm goin to be goin with the bricks from a company called vital earth. They get their coco from northern india so they have extremely low saline content unlike most companies who get it from sri lanka which is on the shore so they come with a lot of salt. Vital earth also rinses theirs three times even tho its not necessary. Their runoff out fresh out the bag or bale is only around 40ppm which is extremely low for coco.
