400 watt

You have to go with what you have.....I recently found a better clone master but to tell you the truth I LOVE variety. My point was "get going" It doesn't have to be perfect. It doesn't have to be latest and greatest. It doesn't have to be expensive.

Longest journey and all that. If you don't start......


I'm not saying that people can't have variety, I'm just saying comparing 2 different genetics doesn't say much about the lights. Do you know why the yield was less than .5g/w...other than genetics?

I want to encourage others to "Take that first step" I was attempting to show that much of what we do is fate. I have gotten 16 o from 400 watt light, I have gotten 1 1/2 o from the same. (actually zero because took down from bugs)
Do it.
Keep doing it.
Don't become frustrated.
Do it some more.
Do not be satisfied, you can do better. (the other folks doing this are not martians, they are your neighbors and family.)
You must invest time and effort that will reward you far beyond your wildest dreams. :ugeek:

Oh, I see...

You do have to roll with the punches, as I've said many times, growing is part science and part art. ;)

That said, you can have less fluctuation by growing one strain from clone by keeping a mother plant because you learn what works and what doesn't after a few grows. While variety is nice from a consumer standpoint, it does add instability from a production standpoint so it definitely depends on what each grower is after.

Growing certainly does take patience, which is often hard at first. :D
