Hello all! I'm just beginning my second grow. First time went well but only yielded about 1.5 oz per plant after about 8 weeks of flowering. I'm growing Bubblegum which seems to be a mostly sativa strain. I'm about 3 weeks into vegetative growth and would like to try increasing my yield this time. I've got the Cannabis Grow Bible which is quite helpful but thought I'd get some advice from those here who may have information more specific to the Bubblegum.
My setup is an attic room approx 7 x 7 and 8 feet in height. I'm using a 400 watt HPS light (I know... not enough wattage for the size of my room, but its what I have). Ventilation is a simple bathroom vent fan which doesn't really keep it cool enough. Temps are often over 100 degrees which killed one of my seedlings straight off but the other is growing well and looking quite healthy.
Which is my best option between pruning, topping and FIM? My book mentions that topping is necessary for max yield in certain strains but not in others. I was hoping that some experienced with various techniques for improving yield could share some advice for a somewhat novice grower. Thanks in advance!!
