Hi everybody. I've posted this before, but no one was able to help, hopefully there is someone on the board that can help me now.
I've got a closet grow and a outside grow. I get poor yields from both. I use pro-mix general potting soil. The outdoor plants are getting good sun and I mixed the pro mix with some cow manure when I planted this spring. I don't know what the yields will be this year, but so far the most I can get from one outdoor plant is 2.5OZ. They are clones, and they are from good stock. Northern lights ... Big Bud ... Super Silver Haze. I just don't get it. Last year I averaged one oz per plant. I put up my grow from last year in the grow journal ... you will see that the plants are healthy. I thought light could be a problem indoor, but the plants outside get good light, but I don't get a good yield, so I figure it can't be my lights. I have a 430 HPS and a 150W HPS on the flower level. The flower level is about 3.5 ft. The clone area is a couple of feet, and the lower veg area is about 2.5 ft.
I am using florescent lights for the clones and veg plants. I start off seeds and clones in a 9 oz cup. Then I transplant to a 32 oz cup, then to a one gallon pot. I do the perpetual harvest deal. I have gotten as much as 3/4 oz from them. Now I'm lucky if I get a quarter. I do have spider mites indoor, and I rinse the plants with cold water to flush of the mites and keep them under control. It's almost impossible to get rid of them all. But I don't have spider mites outside, so I don't understand why the outside plants give a poor yield. Last year I planted NL, Big B, SS Haze, my friend's own strain ... cheesexfoxxak47 ... and blockheadxlove potion#1 and a lost, but still loved strain called electric blue.
It's like the Universe doesn't what me to have a lot of weed. My friend who is a great breeder doesn't get it either. He knows I'm using good stock because it's his.
I would really like to figure this out ... I know it's a tough problem, but I'd like to work on it if I can.
I know you will have questions so I will answer them as best I can.:ignore:
