What strain are you running that finishes in 30 days? Sounds like you are making yourself sound better or faster than reality. I run strains that finish in under 50 days and thats fast.
Harvest every 30 days in a 5x5 9 plants.... that's not possible.
I think you forgot a month, just sayin.
First you said perpetual, now its harvest 9 plants every 30 days? So you must have more than 1 flowering room??
I'm using the "old" math tho. Maybe I need a better calculator.
No, not possible, although i'm sure it will be the way we are going. My strain is an 8 weeker. I wrote a lot and apologies if it wasn't completely clear. I was focusing mainly on the "tips" for the guy that I replied to.
It's a perpetual grow, harvest every 4 weeks. How? You would have read that I use 2 rooms, both 5x10ft. So, essentially I have 4 zones, and 2 zones in every room. A batch in the flower room will be there for 8 weeks under 1000W. Every month, 1 zone is cleared and harvested from the Flower room, then replaced with the girls in VEG. each zone is offset by 1 month (staggered) and rotated. Does that make sense? So, no, not more than 1 flower room, just 2 5x5 zones in the one flower room. Right now, for example, I have a calendar like this:
Batch A: Clone Week 1 (will last 4 weeks)
Batch B: VEG Week 1, (will go 8 weeks)
Batch C: VEG Week 5 (will go 8 weeks)
Batch D: FLOWER Week 1, (will go 8 weeks)
Batch E: FLOWER Week 5 (will go 8 weeks)
Harvest, as you would imagine is pretty full on. Never though I'd use an bowl trimmer, now I couldn't do it without it. A harvest would consist of 2-3 days work. The harvest itself and the rotation of all the other zones + epic cleaning!
"I'm using the "old" math tho. Maybe I need a better calculator."
Reckon you math is OK man, I just wasn't that clear on the HOW part of the perpetual harvest.
" Sounds like you are making yourself sound better or faster than reality. I run strains that finish in under 50 days and that's fast."
In reality, I am fast and very efficient in the way I go about it. As mentioned, you need to be when you have a monthly harvest, rotation and a full time job on top of it. Although, I do employ a bit a help over harvest. I'm not here to put my self on a pedestal, just wanted to share some things that learnt. At the end of the day, we are all striving for the same thing: growing beautiful plants. Best of luck to you brother!!!
