Lol, well I already knew that HR ;) my highest so far is 1p with 1 thousand with 4 plants. Which was my most recent run. I hope my numbers continue to climb.

This is why I think the 2lbs in a 3x3 is possible. I currently have 36 plants in a 3x3, but they aren't all this strain (chronic). I think if I put all chronics in there I could get over 2lbs honestly. I expect these two plants to weigh right around 1 oz dry. These are at 5 weeks flowering. around 4-5 more to go!

Yeah but isnt Chronic known as a high yielder with lower potency?

Depends who you ask. It has some really good genes. I think its a good day time smoke. It smells really floral, looks good pretty hairy, and yields a ton. I would say I have smoked more potent stuff, but a lot of the really potent stuff leaves me too high to get anything done anyway. I know a lot of people in the UK love this strain. I wonder if its just perception? A lot of people say it isn't very potent, but compared to what??? Also, a lot of people who say that I'm guessing have never smoked it.

I also picked my pheno for potency, and yield.

KamIe I had similar questions before. What I did when it drops under 70, is just sit in the room until the temp drops under what you prefer, so that way you know how long it takes. Then you can install a timer with a heater in the room. So for my room. After 2 1/2 hours of lights out the temp will drop to under 63 then it kicks on for 4 hours and shuts off, which brings my room temp back up to 76. Since I'm on vacation I'm not able to dial it in completely but it works. Or if your lazy just go to homedepot and buy a plug-in thermostat and you'll be able to plug in a heater and it'll be more accurate then a timer based system. Also if your spraying for mites, you never wanna do it with lights on cause it'll burn em' I've done it lol. Unless it's ment to be used as a foiler with the lights on, most products are pretty specific about that. What I did was add a little bit of my bug killer with my liquid light/ saturator since the product is ment to be used as soon as the lights kick on, that allows me to spray when I need to regardless if lights are on or off.

i just picked up a digital timer at home depot for 15 bucks. so if i had my temps at 65 on it would be okay to have temps at 55 off?

Well beings that i can sleep iv been reading up on uc ( under current ) and im inpressed to say the least!
So much so that im thinking of retiring the ebb! And building a UC 16 site for my 10x14 room. The shear
Mass of growth and yield off those systems are crazy lol! And the truth is im bored of the ebb and want a
New chalenge.

That's what I'm seriously thinking about building in my 12x18 Room but I can't decideon a layout cuz my entire op will have to Fit in there but like you said there are heavy yeilders from what I read I'm pretty convinced

Word man, I would love to try it, I wasnt trying to knock your choice or nothing, I just thought of it as a more commercial strain, thats all. Imma come cruis through your thread so i dont clog up HR's

55 will make your stuff turn purps.. Depending on the strain it can also slow down development. Or even stunt it. I keep my room min temp at 63.

With lower temps the plants tend to absorb more of the nutes rather then the water. And this is why I think it effects your yields. With less water being absorbed into the plant, the less it has to work with to beef it up or swell up. Since plants are known to have large amounts of water in them. Shit some Strains of Lettus can be upwards of 70% water.

What I'm saying is that when you run lower temperatures the plant absorbs more of the nutrients versus the water. It's pretty evident when you do hydroponics. I was running my ebb and grow right before I stopped the average room temp was 67. Versus in the summer peaks at 80. Now with that being said I can not only visually see how much water their absorbing due to the water levels in the resi, but my Tds meter reads the amount of trace elements in the water. And on average in the summer I actually have to add extra water to the resi to compenstate for the water uptake versus in the winter where I don't have to add as much to last just as long if not longer.. Im not saying I have thee answer, but this is my hypothesis. Do enough runs with different climate settings an you start to see the differences.
