Third- that rhs looks super good. It really took well to the extreme traing you were forced to do. I know at first you were worried about the long veg time, but it looks like its gonna be better for it. :tiphat:

It's nuts I tell ya!

She is another scrog that will not be able to go above 600. She had more stretch in her than I thought. I'm seriously thinking I may get 2.5 on that screen if all goes well but she is an insane yielding pheno.

If I was a smarter man I would mono crop her and not look back.

Third- u get around 2 lbs per 600 watts from the gavitas, right? Thats not hps, is it? I thought u used gavitas but cant remrmber for sure. If u do, do u supplement with hps, mh, or cfl? or run just straight gavita 600's.?

btw, im just being curious, i can only run the gavitas in my dreams.

Third Coast I am diggin those pvc carts
awesome
what size pvc?

I used 1 1/4" pvc. Some of the fittings are specialty furniture pvc connecters not found in any plumbing dept.

I have a whole thread about them here. I did nuke all my pics so it's not as good a thread as it once was but all the info is still there.

Yep but they are HPS. Phillips double ended green power bulbs.

They are 1000 watters but I turn them down to 600. No supplemental lighting, no need.
 
What up third coast, u rockin gravitas? I'm about to switch over on this next run, and sounds like ill b doing the same as u, 1000 watt systems but running them on 600. I gota couple of buddy's rockin them on 1100 and pullin huge #ers, I also got some other buddy's rockin them on 600 and pullin rite around 1 to 1.25 per lite. My raskal loves 600s and its lookin like ill get the same yield of 600 as I'm getting of the phantom digys but with a huge energy savings. Gota luv that. What's ur opinion ?

I can tell you, even just by working with the GG4 plant for a few months or so, She could easily, in a deep hole, with the right conditions, put out 10 lb plants. And probably more.

Would You Guys like to have 10 Lbs of Gorilla, from one plant?
I would

Can't recommend them enough.

I pull 2 per 600. Can't imagine what I could do if I had the ceiling height to run on 1150. Unfortunately if I turn them up that high I fry my plants.

Im a believer seen it with my own eyes. What strain you do that off of? how long a veg time

True OG, Lights Out Kush, SFVxChemdog, The China Syndrome, Red Headed Stranger, Biker Kush ect...

Everyone I've tried yet. Four 8 ounce plants are pretty simple with 6-8 weeks of veg from rooted clone.

Trying for 3 per 600. I'll let you guys know in about 6 more weeks.:biggrin:

I know u werent askin me, but if your only gonna run it at 600, id bet itd be btter to actually get the 600 gavitas. I just recently found out that with traditional hps lights; a 600 watt bulb, is more effective than a 1000 watt bulb, ran on a dimmed ballast n turned down to 600. So im guess it would prolly be the same with the gavitas. Like third said, he doesnt have high enough ceilings to really run it higher than 600 anyways. Remember, gavitas werent created for indoor use with 10 foot ceilings. They were made for supplemental lighting in a greenhouse. That said, they obviously work great indoors. But im thinkin the 600 is prolly more effectient inside. Plus, the 600 are like 200 bucks cheaper, and if your not gonna be able to turn it past 600 anyways....

just my 2 cents. you guys prolly know by now, i give my opinion, even when nobody asks me;)

thats what i was thinking myself,the gavita 600w,4 of those and 2 eye blue metal halide 400w over 4 plants in a 10x10 room...

evening gents...
not too busy a day,just a load of laundry and a quick trip to the store to see if they got the stove fuel cartridges in...of course not,why stock the fuel and the stoves at the same time? that would just be silly...too bad for them,probably wont be making many more trips there when rei is going to give me 10% on everything...

think i got the shimmy fixed on the bike,gotta try it out without the trailer on...would have done that today but it was fiercely windy out...and now that i have that worked out im thinking of just stripping the rack and handlebar bag and light rack off so i can go ride the local trails more often...
