I'm only running 250w hid, but I pulled more than an O off my last single plant and will be again this time it looks like. Sadly I have no link to share. Good Luck!

so you got .1 grams per watt. i think he is looking for a little better.

sorry to the op i dont have any links. to achieve a gram a watt or better, you will need everything to fall into place from lights, to ventilation, strain, grow room, how much you water and even your grow style.

Lol, that was kinda funny. He's all super happy about the yield. Then realizes it's along ways off. On my last one I hit about .7 to .75 gpw. Alot of work alot of maintenance and the right mixture of nutes, airflow, co2, proper trellising or pruning / lollipopping, soo much needed to pull this type of weight you can never say it all in one post. This takes years of experience to achieve because at that point it's like riding a bike you get used to the strains and dial them in to maximize the yield.

gram a watt is a bit of a joke, most people dont take in consideration everything that they use in the room ... and more importantly, how long they use the power for! getting 100grams in 90 days doing 12/12 from seed is better than getting 150grams vegging 60 days and flowering 60 days . Yet the guy that gets 150grams with the 150watt light will say that he got 1 gram per watt while the other grow is more efficient.


60daysveg at 24hours a day = 120days of 12/12 powerwise ....thats huge

I can get 3 oz per plant, with 4 plants under a 400w...so I am pretty close to that...ummm...I sometimes use soil, sometimes use coco...I veg a clone for around 3 weeks and then flower...3 weeks veg 3 oz bud...I have also vegged for 6 weeks and I got 6 oz...not per plant, but I had one I vegged for 6 weeks, and 2 that were for 3...and got 6 from the 6 and 3 from the 3...If I veg for no time at all, like clone to flower then I get an oz per plant, and could probably squeeze 12 in my space...but it all turns out the same...I like 4, 3 oz plants...as opposed to 2 6s, or 12 no veggers.

I don't see that it was as much to do with my lights, as my veg times...and it doesn't really matter with the strain either...4 different plants all trained a similar way end up yielding just around the same...

Since I don't sell my whole growing career has been nothing but a money leech...but I could have never bought the weed I have been able to smoke for the price I can grow it at...

I think clone don't do as well when put 12/12 early on because they don't have the root structure to support the plant yet, seeds do a lot better on the 12/12 than clone imo ... I am new at the 12/12 but I did 3oz from one plant and many 2+oz .

I'm excited for the girl I got going now, hopefully close to 1.5 dried, that will be an a continued incremental increase over the last three grows. Just popped two more seeds in today, and have a clone going, but I don't know if she'll make it.

Totally understand you,but have to disagree Seen it done with own eyes but was a vertical grow.Alot of plants say over 50 was what i saw so way over enough to cover cost also was med grow and was something out of the movies was blindfolded in back of suburban.My brother lives in cali and got me in and will not be going back to it,maybe even to brothers as i had no idea just ask if i wanted to go and said sure.I will be doing a 8 to 10 perpetual grow getting 8 to 10 every 8 weeks max.Also disagree about the strain Genetics is everything.My brother grew a Sativa got about 6 lbs outside biggest plant ive ever seen look like a tree.Enough rambling.

You are obviously missing the point of "grams per watt". It is not supposed to be accurate, it's just a rough guideline of how your grow is going.

doing a perp. 336g ever 8weeks sounds good for your setup,I use 4ft T5 for clones.Thats doing 12 no veggers as you say.

Career, lol Hobbie maybe do a perp and you will have 6 months with no Career,If you need 36zips better have vaporizer.Alot for 6 months 1.2lbs of good ass nugs Strain and Genetics are everything you cant train a Sativa to grow like a Indica? What you really want is that 1 in a mil Pheno.Gl been looking for about 12yrs now
