Four to Five lbs Dry Medicine

growgd904 · May 3, 2011

Getting ready to build a new grow lab...and I wanna yield about 4/5lbs dry medicine.i know genetics and amount of plants come into play, but my question is for light...how many of what watt and type do I need to achieve this goal during flowering..thx and I will post pics as I build it...just need

1 gram per watt is a reasonable goal for a well setup room. you do the math

roughly what size do u want ur flower room to be??

Looks like by the 1g per light its anywhere from 2300-2600 watts

vic420 · May 4, 2011

depends.. obv 4 600w lights would cover a biger area better.. .. i have 2 1000s .. and i use in a 60in cool tube.. and im thinking about bringing in 2 400s in another 2 cool tubes.. for sides

I g per watt never heard that one before but I'm a noob to indoor so I'm all ears...

How is your yield and what technique/setup do you use?

My space is pretty much whatever I want...i plan on keeping a mother room also...just enough for mothers and clones

you WILL NOT get 1gpw unless you are an experianced and very skilled grower must good growers hoover around .75-.85 If i were you i figure about a half or roughtly a lb. per 1k light

1 gram per watt is the goal or better. think closer to .5 grams and work from there. six 1 k lights after a few years you will be able to lose two of them.

4 1000 watts, 9-10 plants per light,3 gallon pots, sunshine mix #4 mixed with light seed warrior, h&g nutes. water every 2 days. will definetly get your yield you want. no questions.

2 1000's over a 4x8 flood table with 32 plants (of average yielding genetics), good veg time till plants reach 12-18" then into flower, each plant yielding 2 oz's min 64 oz's 4 lbs dry .896 gpw should be achieved once the room and feeding schedules are dialed in. shouldnt be to hard.

you can get 5 off 2 1000s ?

Look at what he's saying, frog. He's vegging the plants till they are a foot to a foot and a half in height. This means that they'll be about 4-5 feet in height by the time they finish flowering. Not unrealistic when you consider that he's using a flood table as well. After all, he's got the benefits of hydro.

what benefit does he have doing hydro? im not sure i follow.

wiseguy316 · May 5, 2011

and 32 5 foot plants are not going to fit under 2 1K lights

I'm only a indoor noob but I can tell you this 64oz at harvest will not be remotely 4lbs dry but thx

another sure way to get a ballpark yield estimate.. is to do 1grm per watt of light.. but then, if you divide that number in half.. that will give you what you should at LEAST yield. I've been doing this method for a long time.. and its always given me a close estimate. It's never been under the value that I get when I divide it in half.. not once has it been under that number.

Anyhow, just trying to help you kids.

peace.
