Lovely, great news keep on coming, thanks.
Has anyone tried out StinkBud's method "Pound every 3 weeks"?

Can this method be used in flood and drain tables?

Why not try it for yourself & find out? I have built the aero tubes & cloner... Working so far but not quite a pound yet

Clear answers are better found by asking the right questionsI should have made it clearer as well that I have read the sticky in the first post. None of us are perfect.
Now Stinkbud ain't around, not even his forum "stinkbuddies", and superstoner is offended by me so no gain there.
I tell what I've noticed: a lot of people when they answer they kinda half answer your question and also throw in some quite irritating sarcasm. I don't know if they do it consciously or not. And when a certain person like me for instance picks up on the sarcasm because it might offending at times (like subtle hints that you are stupid,or lazy, or you didn't do your search, etc), so they always kinda throw it in. And when a receptive person picks up on that, then they call you an ungrateful jerk, like: "hey man, I was just trying to help and you are rude". I mean like if one is trying to help, he won't be adding subtle nuances to offend. Some people like to use sarcasm and when it
bounces back, they are like "what an ass". For example, last night I open up a thread and spent like 2 hours arguing over stupid things. My first time in this forum this thread and last night I was kinda arguing...

I had a gander at the Stinkbud's article posted by Montana, and this specific bit is confusing me because it contradicts the advise you have recommended.
"Mix all the nutrients in a 1-gallon milk container. Add water and shake well. The whole mix will take an 18-gallon reservoir to 2,900 ppm, so add about half the mix and then check you ppm. It will be low, so you'll have to keep adding nutrients until you get it to 2,000 ppm (some strains can handle over 3,000 ppm). Remember, it's easy to add more nutrients but hard to take them out: If you go over, you'll have drain some of the nutrient water from the reservoir and add more plain water.
Every couple of days, I add water. As the plants use up the nutrients, you'll have to add more formula. It's too easy!"
Maybe both approaches are correct?...

Many ways do do many things, but if you are using that old info even stinkbud changed doing it that way. When you add back there will never be a proper balance because the plants use different elements at different times leaving behind what they don't need and then you add more of what they don't need to a specific ppm and then that is off.
Sounds very reasonable what you're saying, thanks.
I just read through stink bud's thread for the first time. So he's basically getting 3 lbs. of 2k/w with a 9 week flower time and 6 weeks combined veg/clone? The gpw on that is kinda low. I realize he is restricted by plant count and size, so its a good method for medical growers.
Am I missing something?

You must be if you don't think a pound a week is not good.
There is a difference between a pound a week and a pound every 3 weeks.
Is there a "flo" method I'm missing here? It seems liked this "method" is basically...
aero-clone with no nutes (3 weeks--minimal plant growth, large root mass)
veg with nutes (3 weeks; take clones before flower)
switch to hydro for flower, if you didn't for veg
Its less of a method and more of a beginner guide to perpetual growing, unless I'm missing a key element here.

That's what it is, a beginners guide with everything you need to start, but some people even have a hard time with that, much less taking it upon themselves to learn and apply. That's how I went from a pound every three weeks to a pound every week in the same space using the same flower and veg units. And some just want to find something to tear apart for no reason.
Whooa? A pound every week? Cool, I must've missed this one
. Hopefully, next month I'll start assembling everything. Do you have a thread on that pound every week with the same setup as Stinkbud's?

Why is everyone so focused on grams per watt- I've never attained 1 g per watt. Ever. Period. So should I give up? Fuck no- just keep trying & improving that's all. Any method that works for YOU is a good method. The key is making it work for you

I tried it a couple of times. lolThis title pretty much sums it up...
Really bro it works great! When I first started I was harvesting a pound every three weeks. That's actually a pretty a small harvest nowadays. I use different nutes now but I would recommend Superstoner's recipe if you don't mind the extra hassle. My original recipe is easy as fuck to mix up and use and has worked great for about a million people. I also run a few plants in soil and my Hybrid DWC system. It's always a big fucking party at my op.
The biggest factor in the size of your harvest is genetics. If you find a good producing strain you can harvest a massive amount of weed. Big producers are never the best bud though. Go figure...
Truth is no one in the Pacific Northwest gives a rat's ass about how much you harvest. All they care about is the quality of your weed. Most of my buddies don't even smoke bud anymore. Everyone's hitting the shatter and wax now. At the last Hempfest if you weren't dabbing, you weren't cool! lol I got a buddy that makes the dankest shatter I've ever seen. Almost pure clear with just a hint of amber. He vacuums it for a week straight at a really low temperature. I'm not joking when I say it's too strong. One hit and you sit around and drool for hours. The coolest guys on earth all giggle like little girls when they try my shatter! I shit you not.
All the hipsters are sporting custom torches, phat rigs with cool tools. Dental picks don't cut it anymore. You have to have the bitchen skull on your titanium spoon along with your $200 custom glass rig. Oh yea, and tattoos...lots of tats! lol
The other big deal is high CBD strains for medical use. They aren't the biggest producers so you don't harvest much but like I said before the only people that brag about weight are posers. Most of the medical guys discuss what's best for pain, nausea or spasms. Go figure...
It seems like I've been to a million dispensarys over the last few years and all anyone talks about is what's the hottest strain of the week. So what's the hot strain now... Girl Scout Cookies! Walk in with that and everyone smiles!
I'm not dead, in fact I actually have a life! I'm writing a novel! No shit! Look for it on the best sellers list soon and stay tuned for the movie. Really, I'm not joking!

When I used to grow it a few years ago , I got 2-2.5 lbs about every 3 weeks off of a 24 plant rotation , using Pure blend pro and bcuzz bloom stimulator , with 1 1000w hortilux , a parabolic reflector , a light rail , and an a-frame top fed recycling nute system , 3 weeks clone to veg room . From there i had 4 A-frame racks , using 4" pvc and 3" rockwool in 3.75" cups . There were 4 rows per rack . Every 3 weeks they would drop down until they hit the last row , then out they went . I was growing white widow .
