600w ScroG in a tent... how good can ya get it? PICS, identify my strain?

[1620.]

hey all

ive been lurking here for a long time.. first time poster.

first of all im wondering if anyone can tell me what strain this might be... tough call i know. and yeah, wondering what people think of my 600w HPS soil tent setup. i feel like i could be getting more yield but im just wondering if its the genetics i am working with holding me back?

first of all, heres some bud porn, these are about 4-5 weeks into flower... hoping to fatten up ALOT more, we'll see i guess.

what do people think of this scrog? i know i didnt get it quite right with covering the screen all the way, theres a few spots without any coverage... but i feel like im pretty close and i didnt want to spoil the scrog technique by getting it overcrowded.

using these nutes:

specs:
1 x 600w HPS
high flow carbon filter/exhaust
70% humidity
hi temp: ~30c (lights are on at night to stop the heat)
lo temp: ~22C
ph 5.5~6.5 varies a bit, im lazy

in other news, i have resin in my eye..

 

[1620.]

what should i be yielding with a good strain guys? pound?

 

[.M3TH.]

a pound sounds about right, probably a bit more. 1 gram per watt is usually the standard for a grower.

I love the setup guy! Nice looking scrog. Canna huh? I used it for a while and then made the switch to B-Cuzz. No idea on what kind of strain that is though. Looks pretty.

1 GPW is NOT standard!! That is something to shoot for and Im pretty sure the majority of growers DO NOT get 1 GPW! It takes time and a near perfect setup to reach that kind of yeild.

DO NOT be discouraged if you get .5+/- GPW! with your grow. Thats a decent base to start at and work your grow up from there. Soil can tend to lower the yeild also so take that into account.

That wuld still be close to a pound.

one more thing...... A clean grow room is a better grow room! Clean up that dirt so as not to attract gnats, moisture, and other nasty shit!

good luck!!

VERY VERY TRUE INFO!!! Lookn at your nice
set-up,id say you'd hit about 12-15 zips.

But more importantly it seems your off to a great
start and as soon as you can get your hands on
some high yielding strains,you will def hit the 1lb
mark!!!

Keep us posted bro!!
Cheers

1 GPW...I've never seen it...come close many times...but with the bud that I grow I think it is impossible.

 

[reckon]

YIELD, or getting that elusive "GPW" (who is the guy that thinks this is "standard"??), is:

GENETICS,........you can control maybe 10%

so if your NOT getting a GPW with your setup, GET A DIFFERENT STRAIN,............my current blue dreams is yielding about .75 GPW, under a 1K in 5 gal buckets,...the exact same setup with grape ape, only gets 0.5 gpw

ok rant completed,........

OP, if THAT'S your FIRST SCROG, you did an awesome job! (I remember my first, not pretty)
as far as "what strain is this",...that's pretty much impossible to tell, especially these days with everyone giving strains "pineapple express" names (which seem to change monthly)

I CAN tell you it's a hybrid, and looks indica dominant,......anything else would be pure speculation..........ok INDICA dominant hybrids usually yield 1 to 2 z's per plant (indoors under a 1K), SCROGGING will increase the yield per plant almost double (with some sativas you can get 4 z's per), less than 1K lighting will reduce the yield slightly (but with a scrog setup, that loss will be on the minimal side)

I'd say you get nearly a LB, if not over by a z or two.

oh and P.S. the resin goes in the PIPE, or BONG, not your eye

1620 Looks like a great grow. I unfortunatly don't have the eye to see what kind of yield but I am in the same position I want to know how much yield. You should post some new pics with an object for perspective so we can see the actual size of the nuggets. Here is my grow that is about to come down and I don't think it is gonna make a pound I don't know? There is alot of nuggets but they are only small little half inch of so nugs nothing to big we will see good luck on this round it does look great.

 

[Smoke_A_Lot]

all i have to say is nice grow man.. it could be the genetics, you said you don't know what strain, right? you could always go with high yielding genetics like Chronic or Big Bud and so forth, than compare yield results.

 

[Justin_Credible]

Hey Rekon,
I rekon u be right. I love the rant. I think that 1gpw is not a standard but something many growers would LOVE to achieve.

 

[1620.]

thanks guys. will update pics later when the lights come back on. they look to be fattening up, i think another two weeks and ill chop.

this is my first SCROG, but not my first grow. i think i got just under a pound from the same setup/strain without scrogging, but there was alot of inferior bud!

 

[DankSide]

.5 is a starting point .75+ means you know what you're doing and 1+ gpw means you've got most of it dialed in.

 

[.M3TH.]

Thats odd, on my first grow I obtained just under a gram per watt. roughly 550 grams of NYCD on a 600 watt setup, in soil, using Fox farm nutes. I dont see how ideal environment cant be set-up and obtained.

I have seen over a gram per watt a number of times, and some people shooting for 2 grams. With all the environmental controls, co2, nuts, and everything else available to growers today why wouldnt you have your stuff dialed in?

 

[lilman]

a pound sounds about right, probably a bit more. 1 gram per watt is usually the standard for a grower.

I think a gram per watt is more a goal then a standard. but then again thats just my opinion.

I would guess your looking at 1 lb which btw is very respectable for your average joe and a 600w. I know a couple guys who grow under 600 and are pleased anytime they get more then 10 oz's.

peace, te lilman

1 GPW is NOT standard!! That is something to shoot for and Im pretty sure the majority of growers DO NOT get 1 GPW!

GPW is a crappy way to measure what your doing. If your using a 600w or bigger then you should always pull 1p per light. If your not you don't have enough mass, or you don't know what your doing.

No one will be able to ID your strain, there are simply too many BS strains out there. So why not just make a name up for it, that what a lot of strains are anyway. I would say you are gonna pull 1p from that, so you are over 1 GPW, if you choose to use that counting method. I would say you are right on track for the goal of 1p per light.

 

[1620.]

well i would be on track... except i seem to have some wierd nute lockout issue in the last few weeks. flushing now and seems to be recovering but not convinced im gonna hit target.

some of the leaves on the buds are almost WHITE. quite strange. pics to follow...

just thinking about it, maybe i was a bit too generous with the pk13/14 earlier on and its had a side effect.. hmm

 

[bsound]

Well this is looking great so far, sixteen.

With a 600 under soil I would be impressed to pull over 15. How long did you veg for? Are they from clone or seed? What did you start them under? How's your environment set up? What did you use for the screen and how big is your canopy? Can you give us some more details about the earlier stages of the grow? Would love to know.

Keep up the good work!

 

[Frozenguy]

Looking good man!
