Little update
It seems as though this white stuff on my Coco getting worst it's covering the whole Coco on top of it

that actually lools like salt buildup

are you watering to 15% runoff atleast once a day?

 

[Tempy]

Yes bro

Yes bro like you told me to do

 

[Tempy]

and how are the plants doing

 

[Tempy]

Here is closeup of the leafs
To me I think they look a little over fed

 

[Tempy]

I also been seeing tiny little gray colored bugs running around
I think I should start spraying more often.
Now I spray only once a week

yeah you should back off on the feed strength a little

 

[Wisher619]

keep watering every day but drop the strength by about 200ppm
You gonna flower soon?

I was planning to put them in 5 gallon smart pots this weekend and veg them one more week
Do you think that's too much ?

no but 5gal is a complete waste of space and coco
I would max at 1gal
up pot to 1 gal and veg for 2 more weeks and then flip

what do you think those little gray bugs are

wisher am i wrong to think bigger pot = bigger yields ? if i have the space?
I cant remember where i read it but i remember something along the lines of
each gallon =1oz is that true

More roots more yield.

I'm still learning, experimenting, testing etc.

But my most recent highest yield
Was the beast in a 10 gallon pot.
It yielded .611 oz per gallon of soil.

That same plant cloned and in a 5 gal pot yielded .508 oz per gallon of soil.


Comparing my 3rd grow it had 4 plants in 2 gallon pots (8gallons).
Averaging it's yield and soil volume 4.6oz÷8gallons= .575oz per gallon.


So once you find where your averages fall. You can estimate your total needed soil volume for your intended yields.

for me I now know I can expect on avg .56oz per gallon. Hopefully it increases in time as I experiment and come to conclusions on theories/ideas.
I will adapt certain variables that I believe help me achieve my desired goals.

But if I want to yield more I need to find a way to add more soil.

If I ever find a way to make the whole floor one big pot that perfectly took up all the sq ft of floorspace. Then I could just choose the right height to achieve my desired soil volume.


Based on an average yield of .56oz per gallon. I would need in theory 25.29 gallons of soil in my 2x2 tent to hit 1g per watt :cry:.

But really thanks for asking this question. Because with this math I found a 20 gallon smart pot that will fit in my space just barely. I ordered it and am going to give it a try this run :cool:

I average 90-120g per 1/2gal
no scrogging and training
3-4' plants topped once
just depends on how you grow and if you want to maximize your yield

That's too tall for my blood lol.

My beast was 24" tall and cutting it close to the lights.

yeah I understand
see he is growing in coco
that is the reason why I said only 1gal
in coco you want multiple feeds
and he isnt gonna be vegging long enough for his plants roots to fill out the 5gal
if it was soil I would say 5-10gal pot and veg fo 3 months
but coco you want it small and multiple feeds a day to maximize the use of coco

 

[Tempy]

Appreciate all of the great advise !!!

If I decide to go with 5 gallon how long more do you think I have to veg?

 

[Wisher619]

6weeks
but the thing is when you get to be able to maximize the pot
you will be going through like 3gal of water per plant a day
to me that is way to much
with a 1 gal you can run about 50/60 oz a day and kill it

I just grew 2 18" tall plants and each netted 80-90g
just 2 tops
