I have to agree, I have only read the first 2 pages of this thread but heavy strip between day 15 and 21 was a game changer for me. I used to want to grow the plant naturally, I ll never grow without stripping now. I am a stripper now! well I call it selective stripping.

My best so far is 3.5 lbs with 2000 watts LEDs and 15 different cultivars. I am trying to improve on both weight and diversity.
Yeah mate, pluck the fuck out of em I say!!!
And lollypop, = big heads which = big yields!!

Seemingly it’s called “schwazzing” but whatever. Controlled defoliation is more of an apt term I suppose

Nice one medfinder. Optimal environmental conditions and optimised nutrition with heavy pruning around week 4 will increase yields. Bottled nutes and additives only get so far it’s when you start formulating your own is when the big yields come. Nice buds mate!

Day 24 flower. 13 hours lights on 11 off.
N:K - 1:1.7
Ca:Mg - 3:1
P:K - .20:1

Due for another big defoliation next week and a bit more lollypopping. They were skeletal from the last defoliation 3 weeks ago.... wouldn’t even know they went crazy.

Currently running
N03 - 112.5
NH4 - 12.5
Total N - 125
P - 42
K - 212
Ca - 180
Mg - 60
Si - 25
Going along nicely

2 pounds off a pair of dimlux. Could pull three off a trio, under 1000w not counting the boost ( expensive ass cmh turns out to be repurposed 400mh)

I grew up on a cattle farm too! Learnt to go smell blind to bullshit! You just roll with it. And watch it pile up eventually.
 
Nice, I believe you can. 1.6 gpw is doable. How about 1.5 gpw under a 600 in 4'x4' box.

Really surprised no one mentioned this but CMH is a lot more efficient than HPS, many people get same results from a 630cmh as a 1000 hps. And I think he said he has 2X 1000W CMH. So from what I can see, that's probably the biggest factor. Either way I can't see how this plays out! ;)
