I run mine about 20-24 inches off the canopy. Once they hit a strong stride in veg I’ll bump it up in increments of 10% at the beginning of flower until I hit ~1000 ppfd or the plants let me know enough is enough. My light will veg great at 40-50% but I try to get it really cranked up for flower

I just bought a meter....I need to bump up my game. Anything to get those buds fatter, heavier....

I think once you get your environmentals in check, the big buds are mostly genetics. I ran the same clones under 430watts and again at 650-700 I didn’t get them any bigger just more total dry weight

Just a hair shy of 7 weeks. Pushing 1.4-1.5 ec daily until runoff.

I got my meter...attached some pics...so you are saying 400-500...for veg. And up to 1000 for flower.....of course stepping it up to max....

That’s basically what I do, but not all plants will take the 1000 ppfd without co2, just kind of watch for light stress as you ramp it up. Do it in small 5-10% increments and wait 5-7 days before you go up again, watch for clawing and tacoing and bleaching. You’ll probably need to feed heavier and more often with a dramatic light increase

Day 11, rocking and rolling. They’re drinking around 7gal pot dry in a day so I’m watering daily until they slow down now. Holding 2.0ec and around 750-800ppfd according to Photone and homemade diffuser, I really want to thin them out but I’m going to wait until their done stretching stretch slows down since vpd is holding just fine. The blueberry sugar is clawing and drooping a touch today I think it was just getting too dry and thirsty hopefully it’ll be back to praying in a few hours
Also some bubble hash I washed to squish.

I really wanted to hold off until 20ish days to thin everything out but it was just too over grown, didnt want to risk any mold or mildew issues. Still have ptsd from powdery mildew last year lol.

I’m still running at 2.0ec and I’ve worked the light up to 90% without much issues. They get a little canoeing/tacoing about an hour before lights out but reset every morning, I’ve got a little tip burn but I think I’m just riding a thin line between hard pushing and pushing too hard.

Also I pressed thay bubble hash, first time pressing rosin but I think I did too much pressure way too fast. It’s super dry and waxy but smokes clean and tastes ok, I don’t know Jack about rosin though but I’m thinking about hot water bathing some and whipping it to see if I can reconstitute it or something

It’s crumbly and dry but is hard and melty like candle wax

Thanks that defol was a pain I didn’t consider how hard the second trellis would make it

I was doing a trellis....have found them to be a pain in the ass....they have there purpose....but couldn't see inside cause of a pain to defo....had a plant hermaphrodite on me...I will re-address the trellis at a later date.

I really like them, I just run a 4x4 for short veg and flower, and a 2x4 for clones and mom's. but I figure in the 4x4 I want to get the maximum yield I can and make as much use of my space as possible so I try to cover every little bit. I didn't get a full fat tent this round I flipped early I was afraid if I didn't the permanent marker would dominate everything, I need to see if I can lower the top trellis maybe

Day 21, these girls are pushing really hard and drinking a 7g pot dry every 24 hours. I’m just trying to keep everything steady since they’re happy and hope they throw down big stinky flowers

I really need a light meter but I’m sure I’m at least 900-1000 par up top I’m running my lamp at 90% ~657 watts like 12 inches off the tops

They look great

I was getting more calcium spots and spreading pretty fast, I thought it was from too much light/heat but I’m pretty certain it’s falling out of solution in my reservoir, my ph has been jumping up, it’s been a little warm and I was getting a thin brown film in the bottom of my tote, I got a small 80 GPH pump on a smart outlet cycling on and off, 1 minute on 1 minute off, it should level out and finish strong
