Allo icmag growers, this is my first post here. Glad to join.
I grow for years just for my personal use. This is the first time i try a bigger operation.
1600watt and 30 lovely ladies from paradiseseeds .3 different strains Magicbud, Nebula and icecream!!! Still vegging, they are now at their 5th week.
Hoping for a good yield as i have invest a lot of money in the operation.
A kilo dry bud would be great, and i think it is realistic.
What do you think? Should i keep them in veg for more or flip them right now, i just need 33 grams from each plant to achieve the goal...:canabis:

Wow, nice work indeed. I don't have any experience with those strains, but they look big, and I would flip them.

Man i love the name of this thread. At first i laughed for a while, sounds like you got so much bud out of them that you didnt know what to do with them, hehe
Try co2 and make sure air flow is optimal.

thanks for the comments, and some update!!!

thanks for the comments, and some update!!!

Plants are growing nice and easy,just some light, fresh air and water seem to produce great ladies.No need to feed anything yet, only one application with ridiculus dose of biobizz ferts(0.4biogrow+0.4biobloom+0.4topmax ml/litre), i really think that if i follow their schedule i will burn the plants.

Finally i flipped to 12/12 after 40 days of veg!!!

Here, 5 days 12/12, my best grow ever, hope to achieve the one kilo goal...
what do you think?

Zamanfu. very next pics. I would wait another week or two. Before fliping your lights to 12/12. Marijuana doesnt sexaully mature until 6-8 weeks of age. And by the looks of your flowers you should hit your mark. Are all of your plants females?

Looks great. But I did up the calculations, you're only going to end up with 873 grams, a little short of a kilo.. nah just kidding, no one can really say for sure how much you'll end up with, there are many determining factors and never enough information. And still much time to go before the end. But if I was a betting man, I would bet that you'll get more than your goal.

Allo senor bueno. The plants are feminized from paradiseseeds, and all have only female preflowers, i trust paradise as i only had good results in the past.
About the maturation, i won't agree with you because i had plants at the past that was only vegged for 3-4 weeks and they flowered just fine and quick after the flip to 12/12. I think that as soon as the first preflowers appear you can flip to 12/12. For some indicas maybe 4-5 week period of vegging seems plenty and for sativas 3 weeks are sometime enought.
About the yields, untill now i have only achieve, to previous grows, 0.5g/watt, i hope for something better this time. But not even close to 1g per watt that the expert growers seem to harvest!!!

Zam you can flip them now of-course but what Sen was trying to say is the longer you wait the more bud you end up getting and the more mature they become. But yes you can flip them now if you want but if you want more wait till they get bigger is all peace out Headband707

you can do 12/12 from seed no problem. dont worry about them not being able to 'mature' all the way as they can do this no worries.

Obviously a bigger plant will yield more than a smaller plant of the same genetics, I'm unfamiliar with those specific strains so I am not much help but just the physical size of them and the amount of veg you provided, providing they are a higher yielding strain and adequate light is penetrating, they should be able to yield an ounce each after a 40 day veg, close to your desire of ~2 lbs.

they are lookin indica dominant as well which should help you out under those 600's.

I'd say youre well on your way to getting over .5g/watt this run.

yes you can flip to 12/12 from as early as day 1. And some sativas you must start on 12/12. because they grow so much. I was only trying to incorrige you to go a little longer to achieve ur goal. As for Paradise seeds I goes. Ive grown Rox and really really like it. no problems from them. Happy grows! you should make ur mark

3rd week flowering!!!

3rd week flowering!!!

Hi, plants doing great, doing their thing alone, only waterings every 5-6 days and still only feed with the 1/2 recomended dose. I am replacing the 400w sodium with a 600watt, so 1800watt total. A bit worried for the electricity bill, as the place is an one bedroom appartement. One thing , i am thinking to do is to place a timer for every lamp, so during the lights on, one of the lamps goes off for 2-3 hours, Then the next one... like having a mover. I know my english are bad, sorry...
Here the ladies...
