I bought Big Bud seeds because of what they said the Yield was (16-20oz per 3ft) I had 2 crops of 2 or less oz per plant, now I have 8 plants and this wont even be a pound total. The smoke is awesome but this takes about 6 months and not the yield ILGM said it is.

I know right…but… 2 ounces per plant with cheap lights or 6,8,10 etc ounces per plant or more with great lights along with environment dialed in…up to you but just do the math as the added cost for quality lights will pay for themselves in a couple grows.

See, exactly! Gotta be a big space.

This isn’t an HLG light but it’s comparable (diy strip build) and this is what you get with 200 watts: [20190928_113721] 400 grams of flower on a 4 1/2 month grow.

@danfurlong , You say you already have a 600 watt hps, thats much better than all those blurple leds lights put together, get that light setup right and you should be good to go without spending any more money on lights. I harvest more than a pound out my 3x3 every 2 months with an air-cooled 600 wa…

I think you get my dilemma for sure
