yeah week 4 i was starting to give them 12/12 with the hpsYou start flowering already 3 weeks after day 1?
Oki, il try the same thenyeah week 4 i was starting to give them 12/12 with the hps
now with the led i give them 4 week veg and start 12/12 week 5
Ok, and how do you run veg light? 24/24 or letting themhave a few hours dark aswell?what you want usually is for them to be 20 30 cm tall with leaves overlaping to each others , then it's about time for 12/12 switch
that's what they usually look like day 28 just before 12/12 flip

i run 16/8 both for veg and automatic but most people will run 18/6 for veg or 20/4Ok, and how do you run veg light? 24/24 or letting themhave a few hours dark aswell?
Im reading on Sea of green growing now, and says i need 2-3 plants pr square feet minimum. That means i need 17-26 plants in a 90x90cm tent? I got 12 seeds
I got 12 seeds so i gues il go for that now as the order is done, should i use 6l pots or 9l ?
Alright,, what about topping the plants, do you use to do that?you can do a 4 x 3 12 plants in 6L pots if all seeds make it past the seedlings stage
or you can do 9 plants 3x3 in 9l pots, removing less secondary branches, this will also make watering easier as there will be a little more space between plant
for 8 plants i always germinate 10 11 seeds for safety once in while some don't make it.
Would i have to run veg longer if i do it?i don't like topping, LST, mainling, HST, i much prefer SOG i like having big main colas and few secondary branches, i like the plant to look like it should if untouched in mother nature
but many peoples use thoose methods
you can also combine sog with topping within a scrog but that requires much longer veg time
yeah as said another option with your tent could beWould i have to run veg longer if i do it?
Well, you're going in the right direction with leds.Hi, im planning to buy a small growtent , probably 60x60x160cm size 0.6m3
Ive tried it once before years ago,, with 250w lights,, didnt get so much out of it but it was first time.. Anyways
This time i want to try led lights instead because of lower heat and cheaper power use.
Its so long ago ive forgotten most growing so hoped you could help me.
In a small tent like that, what can i expect to harvest in grams? I think i want to cut it more this time to make it more bushy.
Also how much watt led can i have? 200w? How much would i get out of that?
And about the ventilation, id like to keep noise low as im putting the tent in a shed which is wall to wall with my neighbours. Imalso abit concerened about the smell, as i could sence the weed smell in my appartment when i had it there years ago when the weed plants where blooming up at the end. I did use coal filter. Maybe the smell came fr me opening up watering it only,, idk.
Greatful for all answers and ideas.
Would like to know if thers any seeds you recomend as a beginner too that has good yield
Thx
I'd have 4 plants in there filling the space and until I saw this picture I' didn't really get how 5 old week plants could produce enough to be worth my while. Picture tell a thousand words and sometimes it takes a picture to get through to this thick old head what others knew all along....what you want usually is for them to be 20 30 cm tall with leaves overlaping to each others , then it's about time for 12/12 switch

I second what @PipeCarver wrote. I never really appreciated the benefits of a SOG grow until I saw Monsieur @HerbalEdu pull back the curtain! They are impressive beauties. I would worry about bud rot inside such large colas, but that risk can be managed.I'd have 4 plants in there filling the space and until I saw this picture I' didn't really get how 5 old week plants could produce enough to be worth my while.

previous grow went with 3 last flowerings weeks and first weeks drying with 70% rh got some mold in half the main colasI second what @PipeCarver wrote.

After my first grow of 5 photoperiods under LED in a 100x100cm tent, I understood what a hassle it is to water/feed/drain and inspect 5 mainlined plants in a tent that size.
This grow I dropped back to 3 mainlined plants, all different strains (I like variety, but it does complicate watering/feeding). So I should get 8 colas per plant (admittedly smaller than Herbal’s), plus lots of secondaries. Veg time is longer but I’m in no hurry—I still have weed from my first 2 grows.
Ouch.......previous grow went with 3 last flowerings weeks and first weeks drying with 70% rh got some mold in half the main colas
this grow went perfect with 30-40% rh
i have no control over temperature and rh i have to deal with the seasons and what's the weather like
