These plants were only vegged in the RDWC system for 9 days which began with all 4 lights being set at the 600 watt setting and after 4 days I went up to 750 watts per light and day 8 I went to 1,000 watts per light and left it there. The plants were topped in VEG-A under 2 x 220 watt T5's. Today is only day 40 of Flowering and I've been pushing them more than I ever have trying to see what I can get out of them at these heights. The lights are a little too close to the plants for my liking but the very top of the canopy under the hot spots are 82 degrees F even though my AC is set for 66F. I'd like to see the top of the canopy at 75F but I don't have that luxury now that the winter air is gone. Because of this I have increased my CO2 levels. My nutrient levels are maxed out at 1100PPM (0.5 NaCl scale) / 2.2 EC using General Hydroponic FloraMicro and FloraBloom at the rate of 1 part Micro to 2 parts Bloom. Nothing else is being used except pH down and Chlorine.
The bottom of the plants were pruned first at day 12 of Flower, again at about day 17. Defoliation of the top of the canopy started between Day 26 and 28 of Flowering and continues to this day. I try and take off leaves every 5 days or so. If I don't do a heavy defoliation with plants this close, I get a couple pounds of larf on top of about 6 pounds of better looking bud. This room produces over 8 pounds in a 2.5 month period.
There's 224, 6" squares contained in the SCROG and currently holds around 200 tops. The sugar trim alone of this room produces 4 ounces of potent hash oil. The buds can produce roughly 32 oz of Hash Oil which means that this room produces around 36 oz of hash oil in a 2.5 month period. An oz of Hash Oil in my market can produce between 1k-1.5k when moved in oz's. So if you're in the right market and are smart, you can still squeeze out 10k a light like the good ole days.
thats some serious bud
