Week 6 of flowering. Calculate my yield please.

[mrgreen2015]

Entering week 6 of flowering now.

Grew out the mothers and made 8 clones.
Vegged under 235w T5 HO.
Put them in flower 24 inches tall.

I have "2" 400w HPS lights, "2" 2x4 Flood tables. No scrog.

After much research I am being told 1 lb dry total. Depending on strain ("Blueberry"). But I don't know if they were talking scrog or no scrog. You can check out my journal for more pics.

Here is 1 pic from today.

Your guess?????

p.s. first grow

Half gram per watt would be close to a pound. But who the hell knows. Is your grow room environment good? Do you have light leaks? Will spider mites destroy everything? Will your gf get mad at u and rat you out??

Environment good
No light leaks
No bugs or mites (knock on wood)

Well in my somewhat educated and completely inexperienced opinion.
527 grams. Dry

Well if you are inexperienced you really shouldn't be commenting should you? How did you come up with that figure?

 

[bgmike8]

Well I think I can comment so long as I am honest about my experience level.

I mean it's kind of a stupid question dude. It's lacking tons of info that influence the Answer.

I don't think the most experienced grower can tell you what to expect.

My figure is based on the fact that people say a gram per watt under great conditions. So I given half gram and then a little bonus because you seem like an all right dude.

 

[mrgreen2015]

It's really not a stupid question. I appreciate your honesty of being very inexperienced though. I actually gave you more than enough information to make a calculation. I didn't just throw up a pic and say guess. I gave you how much space and what type of lights. That's all you need to calculate.

Their is no exact answer but there is a range. Like I said, this is my first grow but that doesn't mean I have no idea what is going on brother. I did some research and told you that in my first post. Everything boils down to the prediction of 1lb. I figured it out pretty much by myself. The answer I couldn't figure out is whether the information I received was meant for a scrog or not.

I'm just stoned and tired. Too tired to wake up.my gf so I'm gonna jerk it and go to sleep.
How funny would it be if you get 527 grams dry?
Good luck to you and keep us updated.

It will most likely be a decent harvest. Over or "about a pound".
Did you shut off the hps for the pics or something?

My cell phone auto adjusted to the HPS...really weird. It does that sometimes. You can check out my journal for more pics. I have no pics under regular house lights.

Hey mrgreen2015
I will have a punt for the laugh. So you've got roughly a 4x4 area with 800w across it.. Theres no info on how long you vegged for or how high those plants are, they look big and bountiful so with the system you have you should be getting a pound+. So hard to say, very roughly I would hope worst case 3/4 of a pound and best case 1.5 pound..
Don't count your chickens before they hatch though. A lot of that weight is going to depend on when you cut them down. too many people get excited or impatient and chop a week or two early. That's gona screw your dry weight up. Make sure you read up plenty on when to chop. Your 400w penetration is going to be a key factor too, we cant tell how much of your crop is going to be top shelf tight buds and how much is going to be popcorn and fluff.
501gram that's my guess. If I'm right theres a 2% charge!
Good luck mrgreen, I wish you an happy harvest when they are ready.

If you gave people tthe info needed to calculate your yeild why cant you do it yourself? Do some more research around the site and any of the dozens of "Guess my yeild " threads posted everyday you'd know you're not gonna get an answer. There are far to many variables.Thats why you see people post "bout a pound" its a dumb answer for a dumb question.
looks like 16 ounces.p

Thanks for an educated and well thought out response.

Ah yes I know. I been silently reading posts. I prefer a couch-lock high. So amber trichomes it is. I plan on waiting until I have an even mixture of amber hairs (50%) and cloudy/amber trichomes.

Plus its only starting week 6 now. Plan on waiting for the "signs" to harvest. I'm already having to tie these ladies up for support. No early "chopping" for this grower.
