Gavita 6/750 DE

Hi all,

i've recently purchased this lamp.

I plan using it in a 4x4 space dimmed to 400 for 3 weeks veg and 750 for flower.

I will put 4 plants in 3 Gallons hempy buckets with 100% Perlite.

Do you think that is possible to achieve a pound this way?

NB: i'm growing from seed, average yielding strains.

Thanks

I think you should be good. as long as you can keep Temps down. I have a buddy who only pulled a pound per light out of the 1000 gavita, but he's a lame grower who thinks the only way to increase yields is to add lights.

I don't know about 100 % perlite. I run hempys with 2 in of perlite and coco on top. Have you ever used just perlite?

most of my hempy's are in vermiculite/perlite, i have maybe 5 or 6 in all perlite and i haven't noticed a single difference. These are all 2gal buckets so the might not dry out as fast as a smaller bucket.
