So my 1st grow was 3 cash crop auto's in soil under ~250w of cfl/t12 and yielded around 6oz. Next grow was 3 c99 photos in soil under 400wmh for veg, and 400whps for flower and yielded about 11oz. 3rd grow was a cookies kush, and jungle wreck photo in an rdwc system under 400wmh/400whps, and yielded between 11-12oz.
Since those grows my last few have been pretty low yielding, both with soil and hydro. Currently I have 3 Afghan Kush photos in a diy earthbox with water only organic soil. Veg always goes fine, but the buds just aren't getting very big in flower. I chopped one of the Afghans today, and it looks like I'll be lucky to get an oz from it. The other two look about the same. With the current grow the leaves never yellowed, they're still very green, but I was starting to see amber.
I train all my plants for a somewhat even canopy, and keep my light ~18" above. Not sure if I'm training too long, and maybe need to get more vertical growth before flipping or what, but I'm definitely doing something wrong, as I'm not getting much vertical growth and long buds.
Any advice that I can use? I have the next batch almost ready to go in the tent, and I really don't want to end up with the same results.
Also, I'm thinking that I wall start going 12/12 from clone in the same setup since I have a good Blueberry mother, but I don't want to waste a dozen clones by only getting a few grams each with the way it's been going.
