remember lumens (Lm) are a measure of area so they do not just add together.

to combine lumens do this.

square the lumens of each bulb and add the squares then take the sq rt of the total and thats the new rate.

------------------------------------------

so lets say i have 4 light bulb that are the same. 900 lumens each.

900^2 = 810000

810000 x 4 = 3240000

sq rt of 3240000 = 1800 Lm

1600^2 = 2,560,000///// x10 = 25,600,000
4700^2 = 22,090,000/// x6// = 132,540,000
+ =================
v= of 158,140,000 = 12,575.37276(Lm)

hmm.. seem like to much but is correct using your formula... do i need to / by my area grow space

1600^2=2,580.000 * 10 = 25,600,000

4700^2=22,090,000 * 6 = 132,540,000

then sum

25,600,000 + 132,540,000 = 158,140,000

now take the square root of 158,140,000 = 12,575.3 Lm

your correst for 16 light bulds

-------------------------------------------------

so thats also 10 light bulbs at 26 watts = 260 watts

and

6 light bulbs that are 42 watts = 252 watts

thats 512 watts to make 12,500 Lm

-----------------------------------------

a 400 watt hps will put out 55,000 Lm by it's self.

you have enough bulbs it will save on elec. to up grade.

good growing
Randy

I am confused from the beginning of what you did here. Tell me if this is correct or not.

Day 1- 14

Grow Big 30ml/gal (bottom feed/ foliar feed) every other watering, using plain water in between feedings.

Day 15- finish

Grow Big 60ml/gal (bottom feed/foliar feed) every other watering, using plain water in between feedings.

I know you used 30ml Big Bloom for the first time, but what day did you begin to use it ?? And how long did you use just 30ml before you went to FULL STRENGTH? 2 weeks also ??

When I went back to the hydro store I got BIG BUD instead of Big Bloom since he told me it would work better. I guess I can just replace the BIG BLOOM for the BIG BUD and get the same results.

I am very confused reading this from the beginning and also taking notes. Can you be real specific about your nutrients from day 1?

This how I understand it.

Day 1-7

Grow Big - 1/2 strength (Foliar feed, Bottom feed), using water every other time.

Big Bloom - 1/2 strength (foliar feed, bottom feed) every watering.

Does this mean that you will use plain water every other watering, adding the Big Bloom to the plain water ??

Day 7- finish

Grow Big - Full strength for watering, alternating with plain water.

1/2 strength for foliar feeding

Big Bloom - Full strength every watering
1/2 strength foliar feeding

It is very confusing even taking notes from the beginning. I got to day 14 before I saw anything about veg nutes and the amount to use. Thanks.

Dang! Sorry Randy I posted it twice, but written different. My bad. LOL. I didn't think I posted that first one because I wanted to read it over again and then repost it, which I did.

Now let me read your reply. Thanks.

So in your post in the beginning you said that you were trying to get 1/2 lb from the 15 plants, though you were trying to get 1oz from each seed, or was that a typo?

Shouldn't it be 1lb after drying, or is that the weight you got before drying/curing? Thanks.kiss-ass

as it was a seed grow i thought i'd get 50% girls and boys. I got 100% girls.

and each plant would be just over an oz. so 7 or 8 girls at just over an oz = 1/2 poundish.

here was the way in.

Plants #'s:

Strain = Strawberry Jam
1-01 23.0g
1-02 23.2g
1-03 26.5g
1-04 28.3g
1-05 7.2g
1-06 27.2g

Strain = DonkeyDick
3-01 42.8g
3-02 23.1g
3-03 35.3g
3-04 36.6g
3-05 28.6g
3-06 26.8g
3-07 21.3g
3-08 42.1g
3-09 6.9g

taste samples of 2.3g

totol this grow with 15 plants = 401.2g about 14.3 oz not bad

26.75g per plant just under 1 oz.

I'm very happy at the start I thougt I'd get 7 or 8 30g plants so that 161g more than I was expecting.
