Boy are they drinking water. Since a week they need 5 liter water per day. BAC flower fertiliser is added to the water.

Buds grow every day and more trichomes are visible.

Next month will be exciting!

Aww no reactions? Is noone here confindent that i'll make it up to or over 1,5 GPW?

I could use some confirmation in why I might make it or may not perform well.

That would be helpfull

I have found it best to never try and predict a harvest, there are too many factors involved, but if you have a system dialled and have achieved close to 1.5 g/pw in the past then it isn't impossible. I know someone that is getting 2.3 G/pw with a V-SOG, 42 plants with 2 days veg. I personally think to achieve 1.5 g/pw you need to be running lots of plants, SOG FTW. But good luck man I hope you get it.

Hey HGO!

I never really understood what the diffirence is between sog and scrog. Sog must be with alot more plants.

So more plants in the same arena would eventually potentially produce more? That sounds like a great challenge!

But really I need a bit more experience before I can start up something like that. Northern Light after all is my first real seed sown indoor.

I will take your advice for future projects. For now I stick to this setup to get it lined up properly.

Day 44 12/12

RH 38 - 46%

Temps a bit high sometimes. Leafs close to the lamp trimmed.

Lower parts are removed before fungus manifests.

Been observing the hairs of the plants. Every plant has diffirent caractaristics. Which of those ticks would show a sertain potential of that plant?

Hmm

Next week I will water them 2x 5L per day. My moist meter pointed out the soil is getting dryer. They are thirsty!
