And popcorn too?
I think I may have missed something,
I'm not a good communicator at all, again old & 2¢, could be worse,

We live and we learn. As i said, i don't think it will be long before you get a good idea of what to keep or not.
I'm not good at it but i just wait until bloom and then i can see kinda day by day what to keep and not. I'm not in a hurry.
But everybody has their own way. I do things like i do because i only have 4 plants normally and can spend more time per plant.
If i had more plants i'd probably do it different.
I check the bud sites every day to see if a leaf should be removed. ok maybe not everyday but sometimes everyday.
And next grow maybe remove the od looking and wrong way pointing leafs inside the plant. It should also minimize the popcorn.

But many popcorn is a valuable lesson. They are good for many things. Teach one how to choose and such. You shouldn't be without it.
I'm also looking forward to your harvest of that 600+ g's with
420 pffff

Same dude, but no problem! I still love you!
Yeah, most of the inside is lighter green and all tiny popcorn. Maybe good to make cake or so ?

Buddy, i just told you about all the popcorn, i'm afraid 420 is optimistic and then you yell 600+

Or you talking about both tents ?

Yeah, next round i also want less plant, so more time to spent on each. maybe 4 or 5 in the 120x120.
And i'm still doubting if i run tent 2 also this summer... Otherwise that one gets 3 or 4, 100x100.

I do not allow tertiary buds to continue past 6 inches down.
Every bud must be anchored by a stem going into the stem going into the dirt.
I do have popcorn but it's not a substantial part of the grow.

420Captain · May 9, 2026

Yeah, it's a lesson for sure.
Luckily tent 2 has not so much popcorn, they look much better imo.

Ratios matter,,

650+ with the popcorn. Tent 1.You can quote me on that.

I look at it like this. My last grow was a bit messy with setbacks.
Still got 230'ish with 300 watt in a half full grow space 4 plants. Max 10% popcorn total.
What you got? 600 watt? No setback in flower. 6 plants. Double the size as the 3 of mine. I think i'm close.
I also compare to my other grows with 100g per plant.
But i admit it's a bit hard to guess because i cant see the buds. Still i stand by my guess.

If it was me and having tried 5 plants i find 4 better, but your tent is bigger so i also think 4 - 5 is good for how you like to grow.
But you could also have 9 smaller. Good number for a square and faster veg time. Lots of possibilities.
Actually if i was to make a new closet i'd also have 120x120 and then 4 plants mostly.

420Captain · May 9, 2026

Tent 1 is running a 480watt light.
I'm hoping you are correct sir!

Yeah, i got 11liter pots, aiming for 2/3 weeks veg, so shorter then i did now. Some better leaf management and it sounds like a plan

trygrowup · May 9, 2026

Ohh 480.
Then 500

420Captain · May 9, 2026

I'll take it!
I'm hoping for 750 totall with both tents.

trygrowup · May 9, 2026

Let me see
4 plants............and 250....hmmmmm thats .....ehhhh... 62,5 per plant.
You making bonsai plants or what?
What you running in tent 2?
200 watt?

420Captain · May 9, 2026

Bonsai is pretty

Tent 2 is 300watts of sunshine

420BigBud · May 9, 2026

Looks like you've two tents of heavy flowers. Tent 1 480 watts I'd guess 480g and tent two 300 watts 380g that's a total of 860 grams awesome looking grow man

420Captain · May 9, 2026

Guy's, never have seen so much weed in one place!

Thnx @420BigBud

Yeah i'd say 400 in the small tent. The other one is a bit harder to guess with the popcorn, but with no or only small setbacks he should hit 1.25 per watt light pretty easy.

JIMKSI64 · May 10, 2026

I'm gonna go with a classic Price is Right bid.
Drew I bid 1 gram.
Cause there's always one in each show.
Overbids are losers.

420Captain · May 10, 2026

Wait, did you call us losers ?

trygrowup · May 10, 2026

Nah. Pretty sure he didn't Captain.
Not that i understand what he writes but non of us overbid so it can't be us that's for sure so i think it might be a bad joke or some slang from the hardcore street life. If that's it, i'm not gonna risk anything. Those street guys are tough

420Captain · May 10, 2026

Nah, i aint playin with thug life, he can call me an idiot all day
