Grow Mediums 2000 Watt Perpetual Hydroponic AutoFlower ScrOG

what was your fav

Definitely the larger ones. The smaller ones always tend to put off a bunch of single finger leaves that cup downward. I believe it's signs of too much nitrogen during early bloom. The buds aren't as hard as the larger growing ones, and don't put on as much weight. They just don't seem to play nice with the nutes I'm running.

Man, absolutely awesome grow. Your previous grow is one of the reasons I decided to grow a TD myself. Just one question, for growing a single TD do you think it would be worth setting up a small scrog? or let it grow naturally?

It depends on your grow room size and on your growing habits. I had 2 TD without scrog and was rewarded with some premium buds .

Thanks Bambud, it's good to hear I've inspired someone to take the dive. That's what I try to do. Keep it simple and pay forward what Seymour Buds gave me.
It's definitely worth it. You'll elliminate all the popcorn, and scraggley bud and have nothing but colas. If you don't scrog definitely train your plant. LST it to keep all the colas as even as you can and you'll have great results.

Peace.

I think i bet explain some thing on here Tav my man on the GPW efficiency
Your high watts per sqft are hurting your gpw it not a bad thing ill explain
ill use a quick example
4 plants under a 600w pulls 600g 1gpw
but under 1000w you get 800-900g 0.8-0.9 gpw which would you rather have?
Im sure you could pull more out of your system but bear that in mind^

you could increase effiency by for example using 3x600w hps which would save 200w and hit you closer that that level but would you yield less who knows
or a change of strain
you could try switching out 1x 400w with a mh to see if the mixed spectrum with lower par bumps yield by boost the veg growth ( it may go either way)

regardless 4lb is 4lb

Don the old GPW idle is useless my friend as it essentially dose not tell you anything about the "Important Factors Of Production", that is "Fiscal cost per gram. it matters how much it cost to produce end of. A much more beneficial measure of reward for energy spent = cost.

Tav has just run 2200w for 18hrs over 93 days = 3643Kw. yield;......2352 wet multiply by drying loss of 72-75% = dry weight (Expected) = 588g/Dry. So;.....divide dry weight (588g) by total Kw used 3643Kw, = g/Per/Kw. 0.161g produced for each Kw used during the 94 day production cycle.........i am being fair here as i have not added the Kw cost of the "Carbon Filter" run cost. Just based it on 2200w of light flux at 2200w of electricity used.......

Ie;......... 0.161g produced per Kw cost. Kw at 0.10p = cost per "g" = 62p/g..............that is inefficient.................as under 1000w (Photons) 6 plants i have just yielded 680g at 1366Kw = GRAM PER Kw (GPK) of 0.498g/Kw. Nearly half a "g" per Kw. That is three times the weight of Tav at one third the Kw cost................he got 0.1g?Kw i got 0.4g/Kw = 0.20p per "g" produced..............what matters most ??........GPW or GPKw ??...............And it's Low Carbon Green Room Production. The way to go for me.......AB.......

Tav produced a shit load of awesome smoke and I'm sure paid the power bill. Close enough for me.

Buddy.
The 2352 grams was dry. Did you check the log?
Did you see the full tent of colas?
Did that look like 500 grams of weed to you?
Your .5 GPkwh isn't close to "3 times the weight" of me.
I pulled OVER 1.07 GPW DRY packaged, and gone.
Why would I give weigh of wet weed?
That wasn't counting some scraggily shit either.

The entire grow had it's own power meter, and cost me about 550,oo.
So, $550.oo for 5.25 DRY pound of weed. $0.23 per gram, or $6.33 per ounce produced.
I'd say that's a good price no matter how you slice your GPW/kwh equation.
And yes, my bills are paid for quite some time.

I'd love to see some of your GPW auto's.
:thumbs:

I generally put up harvest videos of the dry bud, and dry weight so there's no splitting hairs.
I didn't this round, but there's always next round, and I'm sure I'll have no problem producing the same results
for anyone who may think my numbers suspect.

Peace.

I could hear you type through the internet!!! lol :group:

 

[fweedom]

i honestly dont know about all these math equations going on here but this guy has 5.5 pounds of some good right now

great grow man :smokebuds:

$550 for the whole grow??.... they way i see it you hook someone up for a few oz for $550

boom theres that $550 then you still got 78 oz left :dance:..alls well that ends well
