All depends on your growing techniques and your enviroment, I'd say between 3 and 10 oz, doubt you'll be getting 10z as thats more than 1g/watt but you might just be epic at growing who knows...

we are thinking you may be a spartan grower ... long live epic ops!

oh ... and from WHAT I HAVE READ most new growers average about .5g/watt , so you can expect somewhere around there. Veteran growers hope to Average around 1g/watt. good luck !

If growing from start to finish under 250, you could flower 4 - 5 small plants. The thing a 250 lacks is penetrating power. So you'll have a more difficult time getting long branches of thick bud like you would expect. The plants may tend to stretch a little more too, or just not as dense.

3 ounces dried per plant, is asking a lot. Not impossible, but about half that is likely. 250 is nice for heat control, and the bud quality will be just as good, might take slightly longer flowering time.
