Yield/height problems

5 1/2 feet height
7 1/2 feet width
13 feet long

one high pressure sodium 400w
one metal halide 400w (Both MH & HPS running at the same time)

IT was white widow 450 g per sq m

now its hash plant 750 g per sq m



I got 3/4 of an oZ from one mother plant last time, I was wondering if there was any way I could get more of a yield? Last time they got too tall and gangly, had to tie them down, but I still got a nice sack. I need the same or more yield, only in a shorter plant.

I was startin them out in cups. Puttin them in 8 inch pots then to 5 gallon buckets. This time I was gonna put em in 6 inch pots, any PROFESSIONAL advice?

What are you feeding them? I grow under a 1000 watt so only 200 watts more than you. I grow 6 plants at a time and usually yield anywhere between 2-3 ounces per and that's with only about 40 days of vegetation from rooting as clones.

Also if the 3/4 ounce came off your mother, its safe to assume she had more time to vegetate beings as you kept her alive longer? That's a poor yield for a long vegetated plant. I have my old mother flowering right now, she's almost 6 months old a little over 4 when I put her on 12/12 light. I expect 4+ ounces off her and she is a crappy yielding strain too.

Now that I think about it, if you say they are getting tall and gangly it sounds like you have your light too far away or you have them spread out too far away from the light. That could also be a valid explanation for your low yield. Try to maximize your light efficiency by getting your plants canopies together so that there aren't many holes in between plants.

edit: Also just realized you're spreading 800 watts of light over a 13'x7.5' grow area. Yikes.

im feeding it Eco grow for flowering, earth juice for VEG

they got too big, so they were extremely close to the light, til I tied em down.

I noticed out of the 3 plants i had, 2 were Veg'n in 10 inch pots, the other was in an 8 inch. The one in the 8 inch was shorter, and fatter.

So I plan on using 6 inch for Veg'n this time, then into the 5 gallon bucket. The lights were close together, and so were the plants.

i only got 5 1/2 feet height so I cut the veg process to 1 to 1 1/2 months and it worked just fine with 3/4 oZ off one mother.

i only wanna mess with strains that flower in 45 days now, phukk it.

so r u saying if i let them go longer and keep them in small pots IN THE VEG STAGE. theyll yield more?
