Thanks bro, could've been better, next run I'll go for #6 only, since it's more stable & efficient (a bit faster and uses less water), I'll also veg for 3 weeks instead of 5 & in case I get 3 females I'll hit one with colloidal silver for some feminized beans ;D
I only sampled a couple buds once, I don't like doing it much since quick drying wastes lots of stuff... only 2 days left until its xmas here ;D (beautiful tree BTW ;>)
I used 325 watts from week 0 till week 12, after that till week 15 I switched to 365w, both periods had 3x 6500k & 2x 2700k
In case I get 2 females (or if I keep 2) next run I'll use a total of 390w (6x 65w) with 50/50 spectrum, turning the middle into vertical & see if that at least will get me the same yield I got before.
It seems like defoiling and lollypopping were counter productive in my case, I still ended up with the usual popcorn ratio, also the A.N sample burn I got 3 weeks before harvest affected yield too, buds barely bloomed in that period.
I guess in general its best to keep sativas growing outdoors or under HID in a bigger space than this, next run I'll go for something more on the indica side, maybe an auto since they don't stretch at all & gave me great results before in the same cab under 11 weeks only.
