600 watt hps 8 plants?
- Thread starter cloudyharvest
- Start date
my first grow I only had one genhydro pot, with the drip system, with one plant in it, I used a 250 watt light hps. I vegged it for almost two months and bloomed it for about a month. once i harvested and all buds dried, I had about 3/4 lb. of some beautiful og kush. so it's all about how much time and how long your willing to wait to get different results. believe it or not, but it happened. growing new strand now and will post some pics in the near future show all that you can get more than a few ounces from one plant.

to answer your question in short and concise terms: yes, you can achieve a great yield in a 5x5 with a 600w in a cool tube, assuming you don't mess up big and use decent genetics, nutes, etc.
if you want a really great yield, i recommend LST by training your plants around 5 gallon buckets and then flowering. this is a great technique to increase yield dramatically. it will take a little extra time at first b/c your veg time is a little longer, but that also means your plants will be sexually mature, giving you time to weed out males and the plants will yield more proportionally this way. Do this with a nice indica dominant variety. TH Seeds Chocolate Chunk has some really badass pheno's for this if you don't already have good seeds/clones or if you want something new (get the REG seeds though i think that's all they offer in CC). super tight spacing and very quick branching. take clones, and use the best one for a mother. i gaurantee you this method will earn you a very nice yield.
either way the basics are: good genetics, decent nutes and environment, you will do great with 600w. that is plenty of light and will stay cool enough in a cool tube. i run 400w in a cool tube in an almost 4x4 cab. im jealous lol. good luck

LOL yeah 4 pounds??? there are 453 grams in a pound so 453X4 devided by 600 would be 3 grams per watt????? Good luck with that!
I grew 6 plants under a 600w and veged them untill they were 14-16 inches tall. I topped them or fim'd them and got a little over two oz's per plant.
Pound - 448 g's

Looks like its natural for that variety by this stage, but you can keep the fan leaves alive a lil longer by using a bit more N sometimes (not too much) and by getting more blue wavelength light in the flowering room.

hey man the ones that suffered hard from the drought will die off, pluck them away and learn. it will affect your yield but not too bad. as long as the small leaves by the buds are still green then your plants are ok, but if those are going south then yank your crop. It is (I think) due to moisture stress in the grow medium) I had this problem on my first grow, now I use DWC and never underwater. 9 plants for a 600 is good but tighten your footprint to 4x4. my last grow before I moved was 6 plants and vegged for 40 days was an lb. with my 600 watter. that should be a routine number for you to shoot for
