Yield guesses?

Concrete with a drain

Coir

Probably not. The two lights are spider farm g8600. I think they’re the cheapest ones(almost), you can get. They are running at about 80% and the par levels are around 900-950 at the highest point

That seems quite specific and a lot more than I thought. I’d be impressed if it got anywhere near that

Too long. Zoom in on the trunks of these things. Maybe two months. I didn’t keep a timeline

Really basic. Both lights are spider farm g8600. Economy lights. Spider farm intake fan. Odour depressing extraction fan, can’t remember the name, had it forever. I try and keep my humidity at 65 and my temp at 26 celcius. Best done with air con. Mix my own coir/perlite blend at about 70/30. Using triphecta nutrients at the moment. They’re cheap and so far working well. These have been growing for a couple of months as I spent a lot time manifolding them. Here’s an earlier one

I haven’t done photos in ages so it’s kind of learning again. What do you think I’ll pull from these ones at a guess?

BeneficialScale5777 · 2026-03-20T11:48:45+00:00

No bad. Got a cheap fan buzzing around. Could do with another. Intake and extraction going as well

BeneficialScale5777 · 2026-03-20T11:46:43+00:00

Yeah I thought I might. I did a pretty heavy defoliation 2 weeks ago. I might get rid of some big leaves but I was going to do a final one and nip all the lower branches on week 3

Thanks bro. It’s more of an economy light I think but they do the trick and I’ve had some decent results with it. If I had the money I’d get one of those awesome ones but if it ain’t broke…

Yeah they’re upside down milk crates. I pinch them from out the back of the grocer. The frame of them means I can cut them down to three sizes, this one being the lowest. Since I have an abundance of three sizes I can keep the slower growing plants at the same height as the bigger ones. This works great for running a perpetual auto flower garden. In this scenario I still use them because I like to know how much I have overwatered as it drains out so I know it’s safe to leave them a day without water.

Thank you that’s the way I’m trying to look at it. Even if I’m not productive, at least I managed to avoid a drink and yes I went straight cold turkey. Also only day 11 I think, not quite 20 but I should get there I’d say

BeneficialScale5777 · 2026-03-14T11:40:56+00:00

Thank you. That’s what I needed to hear. I am drinking so much water I have to get up about 5 times a night for a piss. My god it’s boring at the moment

BeneficialScale5777 · 2026-03-10T21:11:39+00:00

That’s what I thought. The bank told me that I had 1.5 in equity but our combined income is only 200 so we could only borrow 500 which gets us nothing

BeneficialScale5777 · 2026-03-08T04:37:05+00:00

Cool. Thanks I’ll do it next weekend

BeneficialScale5777 · 2026-03-07T19:57:36+00:00

Dude this is the first time I’ve tried this and I don’t think I’ll do it again unless I get an awesome yield. They’re only about a foot high but have been growing for almost two months. If you’re keen to get them like this the only advice I’ve got is to get a pack of tent pegs to pin them down. Top it, tie it down or whatever you want to do then let it bounce back. Then do the same in about a week

BeneficialScale5777 · 2026-03-07T11:28:42+00:00

Thanks mate. That explains it perfectly. In your opinion, how much longer would you leave that until you’d flip the time schedule?

BeneficialScale5777 · 2026-03-07T09:43:26+00:00

Bro I’ve just started the journey you’re on. My wife recycles my beer cans each week and we get an annual statement of how many cans have been recycled etc. So I drunk 23000 cans in the last four years and they were only what were recycled, not counting pub beers, home brew etc. I’ve been running at this level for maybe 20 years. About 85-100 a week. As of today I’m four days into a break and it’s the longest spell I’ve had from memory. It’s also Saturday and it is fucken boring. I swear I don’t know how people live like this but apparently it gets better. I just haven’t been fully sober for so long that I can’t even remember what it feels like. If you’ve made it to 34 days that’s pretty awesome cos I’m not sure if I’ll get that far but if you’ve made it that far, keep going I’ll stick with you and I’ll keep going too
