Yo guys I had 5 GHS jack herer and 3 Female seeds white widdow x big bud i think i fucked up the germing this time roundand only 1 bean has sprouted

I was hoping to do 3 or 4 plants this run round but i don't have the spare cash to be buying more seeds.

People have told me that its not the number of plants its the amount of light that each plant gets that determines your final yield... is this true?

Should I grow out just this one seed and make it a monster or is it not worth it ??

Space isnt really an issue and im running a 600w HPS i was planning to veg for 4-6 weeks

what would you guys do ? thanks in advance

Veg the one you have a bit more and take cuttings from it if you can. That one seed can turn into a lot of plants

That is what i have done previously i dont know why i didnt stick to what i knew. what a dick head i am!!

But back to my question 1 plant worth doing or is it worth waiting and picking up some new seeds to run 4 or 5 plants ??

A mother plant situation.
how's your cloning skills?
veg that one plant out, keep it as a mother for a while.
take a few cutting when she gets big enough.
veg your clones for a week or two, and put them in flower.
when you put your clones in flower take more cuttings.
let those clone veg for a week or two and put them in flower.
when you put your clones in flower take more cuttings.
repeat...repeat....repeat...

Just veg it out longer, say 6 weeks, and grow a monster. You are right, its not necessarily about the number of plants, but more the amount of light.

I used to grow 2 plants at a time under a 600w, now I grow 4 plants under the 600w. My yields have not changed much, I still get about .7-.8 grams per watt, even though I doubled the plants.

You have, --one plant. All your eggs are in one basket. Your pretty much being forced into propagating off that one plant.
let that mother veg 12-16 weeks, she'll be a monster. And you have more plants if you mess up. And you'll have buds to harvest every other week once you get going. :)

Yeah. I don't know if you have the resources but cloning will get you a lot out of one plant. Instead of buying multiple seeds you get a lot of plants out of one. Good luck

Grow the one plant. Like Nitro said - now is the time to ot screw it up. One good plant, veg it for 2 months and take clones the whole time. You can make up some lost ground here.

Thanks for all the advice guys I've never cloned before so I would need to do a bit of reading up and couple of hours on YouTube before I tried it but unfortunately I don't have a separate veg room. So could I veg this 1 plant for say 4 weeks take cuttings veg everything for another 4 weeks and then flower my mother and clones all at the same time ?
