600 watts for 4 plants is kinda over kill IMO, I would switch to the 400w

Really ? i got told by a few people 400 wouldn't be enough as it only kicks out a 1 square meter print.. im using 30litre tubs so it gotta be quite big, i used a 400w for 3 plants before and they kinda struggled, these babys look very healthy :D

Try raising the shorter one up with something (blocks of wood) to meet the height of the others.So you have an even canopy.

Ok I'm panicking here....

I let my plants get too tall. This is my first grow and I had no idea that they triple in size when they bud!! SHIT. They are 3 feet tall already and I'm just going to put them into budding tonight now that I know they're so huge. Theres not much room for them to grow upwards, I really would have liked to get that top cola but I'll sacrifice it to salvage this grow. How can I trim them in a way that they aren't going to take over the small room? What should I do? Can I trim them during budding or should I do it before? HELP

Hey Bob, great thread and props to you (and Riddleme) for helping out and answering all these ques.

Heres my setup...I have 4 plants about a week into flowering.I'm using FFOF soil along with the FF Big Bloom,Grow Big,and Tiger Bloom.Everything seems to be going well.When I purchased my gear from my local hydro shop the owner tossed in a bottle of Bio Bud Bloom Booster (Organic) into my box for free.He told me to use this in place of the FF solubles (Open Sesame,Beastie Bloomz,and Cha Ching) that FF recommends on their feeding schedule.

Is this correct?
Should I be using this with FF Trio (BB,GB,TB)?

As of right now I've only used FF Big Bloom and Grow Big.I plan on introducing Tiger Bloom soon to the plants and was curious if the Bio Bud Bloom was something I should use with this grow or maybe save it for another grow?

You can check my Journal through my sig. if you like.

Oh, And just to let ya know I sub'd to this thread from the beginning and have learned a lot from reading the questions and answers in here.

Thanx for your time,

Low

It should work, I've heard of people mixing fox farm nutes with various other kinds, and with descent results! Try it out! I've heard some good things about the GH organic line! Plus you'd be saving some money, not having to buy the FF trio!

You should be able to place that plant on top of a stack of books or a small stool, to level out the canopy...

You can fit a few more, but for maximum yield I would only do about 12 plants all together, at the most...
At 24", I think you can probably get a gram per watt, maybe more with an HPS...

Okay so I live in Florida, if I were to start a plant outdoors right now would it be a good idea? In Florida the average coldest winter temperatures are like 50 to 45 degrees. And it gets that cold starting from mid November. Sometimes it gets even colder then that but usually overnight. A friend of mine says the days will start to change now and it will be a 12/12 cycle so the plant will autoflower and I will have a low yield. Is this true. And what if I brought the plants indoors overnight?
