Lighting Alien v Triangle

Here's the harvest pics. It's easier to see the double mainline with the stems gone lol.

Such an amazing grow. You definitely knocked it out of the park. Lollipopping is key in my opinion. The lower larf is impossible and I have tried just about everything that didn’t include cutting to thicken up the lower parts. When the plant is as full as these it’s impossible to get light down low so I do think it’s inevitable. Cut it now or cut it later, it’s going to suck either way. This doesn’t take away from the sheer size of this plant though. 2 cobs to yield this much is such an amazing accomplishment. Hats off to you!

Thanks BigSmo! And thank you for having the autocobs thread on here. I never would have heard of them if I didn't check this site out.

The last 20 days of its life were spent in the middle of all 4 cobs, so I wonder if that made that much of a difference!

I weighed up the beast today, and to my surprise, I didn't get 7 oz. I didn't even get 6 oz.

I got 9.85 oz :-0!!!!

Holy fuck. That is more off one plant than my previous harvests with 4 plants! I'm so happy about this I can't even put into words the feeling of weighing it up and seeing the numbers. It was truly a great experience growing this plant and trying the double mainline technique.

Plus the buds smell great, lemonyish, and they are decently covered in trichomes. So I'm stocked for a while now!

Already thinking about starting my next grow!

The a v t is everything on the left. Trainwreck is in the middle and devil cream is on the right. My total for this harvest was 14.67 oz, or 1.86gpw. I guess it's time to shoot for a 1lb harvest lol.

Congrats on the harvest of some fire smoke :drool:

Great numbers of some fire smoke.
I'll bet you are happy, and you should be.
Great growing.

Killer job. Now I have to look up mainlineing.

2.29 grams per watt. 1.53 If you use 3 cobs as an average which is probably more accurate. This is great. First cob run as well? As I tell everyone it only gets better. The yields keep increasing and the operating costs are so small in comparison. Great job!

Nope! This was my 4th run with cobs! I absolutely love them!

I was wondering if you could clarify how to got to 2.39gpw and the 1.59. I have 4 55 w cobs, so don't I just divide my total grams by 220? Do they pull less than 55 w from the wall? Tell me what I'm missing! Lol:smoking:

That’s it just divide. I did the cobs based on 60w as well. The 55w is just about a year old now. I had upgraded the cob when the newer version came out.

275g/120 and 275/180. Personally I have always tried to figure things for what they actually were. If you used 2 cobs for 75% of the plants like and 4 for 25% of the plants life I’d say 3 is a fair average. It actually averages out to 2.5 cobs over the whole grow-1.83 gpw.

If you used 10 cobs for the last week I wouldn’t expect anyone to consider 10 cobs divides by your weight. This is the fair way to figure it, not that it really matters much but it is nice to see when the 20k watt rooms just break1gpw. Most photo growers are around this level too. For you to come in with autos and cobs and to crush it is great. I rely heavily on the gram per watt aspect. It proves a lot.
