what yield per 1k watt are you expecting out of the sour d. i am switching one of my rooms to blue dream and green crack it makes better financial sense you get a much higher yield 2lb per 1k watt even though its worth less than OG something we were running numbers on yesterday you guys have experience growing BD or GC i've seen friends get crazy yields off them but personally i have never grown it.

Well tbh I'm not expecting an outrageously high yield from this harvest.. I'm still quite a n00b as this is maybe my 3rd grow. My previous grows were pretty small, so I don't have much experience with tying, scrogs and such. My past grows were only up to 6 plants and 1 light. So this is my first serious grow, and I am going to really push for a high yield during flower. I'm going to build a net of fishing line and dowels to tie the buds to, and I'm going to lollipop the shit out of them. I am pretty impressed though with the sour d strain... Really nice dense colas, and since I topped a lot of these, soe several times, I should get a logic those colas (omfg I can't wait). But I am very interested in increasing my yields, and cant wait to get the final tally.

Also, I have seen BD grows (around the WWW) and evidently they do provide some huge yields... But from my understanding (especially in Cali) everybody and their mothers uncle is already growing it. So the market may be somewhat saturated with BD.

o i know it totally is lol that is why its worth very low on the dispensary donation range for top top quality BD you will get around 2500-2600 per lb if you are doing multiples. but if i can pull 2 lb a light i am rocking 20k watts then that would be around 40lb i wouldnt really give a shit haha prolly split the room half BD half Green crack or sour d something big yielder. there is a lot of BD here but not much of it is very good mostly outdoor and green house. even the indoor i have seen is very low quality in comparrison to other strains. i think most of the better growers are like me growing OG, but i ran the numbers and BD would be more beneficial. it is also much easier to grow and less of a bitch than OG is

Jeeze, 40LB is a very good argument no matter how you look at it! Sounds like a dream... I've never tried blue dream, is that pretty much all indica? I do have a strain called blue moonshine that's pretty much indica and I don't like it at all... But in all probability it's not even related to BD.

Im going to be doing a rite up on hienseberg tea, set by step of how I do it never done it before but it seem simple
Enough, plus im sick of using chemicals and geting slime and still losing the bennys. So my clones will be the test sub

too much work brewing the microbes when you can buy them in powder form at a reasonable price (excluding AN lineup).
And the problem I'm seeing is if you use a product such as bud candy or many of the same type of product, heisenberg made it clear not to feed the bennies in the res, why I have no idea but using any sweetener will cause issues, at least in deep water and I don't know why it would be any different in ebb and flow.

Would be a good question for heisy. but I think it has to do with slimes.
Click to expand...
i use house and garden my res is not slimey AT ALL. the water is basically clear asside from a ting red from the 2 part one is clear one is like cranberry juice color. koolaid is darker than my res i can see straight to the bottom.

it would only make sense for sugars to be in the res to keep your bennies alive longer i would think. like i said i use sweeteners for what they are not to feed bennies but i feel it increases flavor and definately smell. never had a single issue

Hello, can someone please tell me what the diameter of one of the system's buckets is? This will help me to figure out whether I should use two rows or three in my 5x10 tent grow. Thanks.

Just under 10" diameter. I'd say about 9.85" or so. Worth noting there's an inch num out th side when the hose fitting is in.

theres no work at all the myco madness is all the AN bennys and tons of others, thing is 1 to 1 good bennys cant win so you breed them
in a seperate 5gal to create billions of them then add it to the res and blame the good wins. plus myco cost 28 bucks for enough to make
100gals try geting that out of AN

I just bought great white myself, and I hope you're right about it being good in ebb and flow WITH sweeteners because thats just what I'm doing now, I was trying to decide sterile res or bennies and the great white and zho won.

you know, this was my idea too, I was gonna buy one bottle of voodoo juice and keep a bucket bubbling, but I dropped all that and went sterile.
