How much bud can I get from a 4x4 room?

Hi y'all! I am new to growing but a longtime fan (wink wink)! I am working on my first secret garden and I am wondering what is the maximum weight I can hope to pull out of my room? It is 4x4, 6'tall, and I am planning on running a 600w HPS/MH switchable. I have some good Willie WOnder seeds from a lucky bag, but I am also considering choosing some of the fine strains available at Attitude as well. I would love to hear what you think my max yield can be.

Thanks!!

theres alot of info missing there man, soil mix, fan how man hours the light will be on will you be testing ph what kinda nutes will you be using there is really no way to answer your question to be honest. dont over water or over nute that is one of the biggest noob problems try to get good ventilation and see if you can add some c02 into your room. sorry i couldnt answer your question but i would be more than willing to help with your grow how many plants are you going to run, run an easy strain your first time that way you wont get discouraged

that'll depend on a number of things; how many plants; strain, etc...i prefer to grow fewer plants for more yield per plant. in my 4 x 6 area, i would be able to grow 2 indicas filling up 15 gallon pots...kinda tight but i could get 2 lbs from this.

most indoor grows don't exceed the 5 gallon buckets which could produce about 1/4 lb each

thats about m2 so most growers say on there sites that u should get about 400g per m2 which is about 14oz. but i imagine that is grown in near perfect conditions with a perfect canopy.
so i would say gastankers prediction is about right

i also should mention im doing a similar size grow but im going to scrog the whole area. im aiming at 10 oz for my first grow. there is a good chance i could end up with more but i think as a noob 10 oz is achievable in that space

Okay, I'm new to this so thanks for cutting me some slack. I am going to be growing in soil mix with liquid nutrients as needed and ph balanced water (I just collected a bunch of rainwater last night, heard it's great!). I will have a 6" passive air intake and a 6" inline fan outtake into a carbon filter box. I plan on starting my seeds under flourescents, then putting them into the nuclear nug chamber under a 600w MH for as long as it takes for them to grow into beautiful young ladies, then to the hps for budding. I am looking to getting a co2 canister and I have access to a supply of cool air if needed via a proximal ac system I can tap into. I am planning on running 18/6 lights during veg and switching to 12/12 for flowering. I would appreciate any suggestions on what nutrients work the best for y'all. I also plan on investing in some better seeds when I get it all down, so cloning and a separate veg chamber is in the future... (rubs his hands while quietly laughing "mua-ha-ha-ha....). I short, I want to know it all but I also need to develop a reasonable estimate on how much bud I can expect from this spaceonce I get the environment dialed in. I am considering Scrog, but I m wondering if height outweighs number of plants (no pun intended).

Thanks for the estimate, I am considering scrogging it as well. Plus, it just sounds cool.... scrogging... I like to say it to myself over and over...
