I can manage up to a lb of weed with a 250w mh to veg, 400hps to flower, I only have a small room, 30 inch by 40 and can only grow up to 3 foot tall, I can manage it with many strains with a little training, I think it is poss to hit 3lb with 1000hps and everything is dialled in properly, I use nft

A quick background: I was using (6) 1000W Eye Hortilux MH for veg and then 1000W Eye Hortilux Super HPS for flower running in 8" air cooled epic hoods in a room with no CO2 added, it was not a sealed room. I pulled an average of 2-2 1/4 per light regularly. This was after years of practice, tweaking things around, and getting good genetics. After years of strongly apposing LED lighting, I Recently I switched over my operation to LED. I decided to go with the Fluence Spydr X Plus. They run at 660W and have a solid 4' x 4' footprint. I just harvested my second grow under this setup last month. And have just weighed the final product as it is now dry and has a decent cure.

Here are the basics of what I run:
Sealed Room is 15' x 12" x 8' ceilings, it is very tight when full but I'm limited in my space
Lights: (6) Fluence Sypdr X Plus, Run at 660W with Dimmer
Pots: (4) 6.6 gallon Auto Pot System with air domes per light
Medium: Canna Coco/Hydroton
Nutrients: Canna Coco Line
Water: Reverse Osmosis
CO2: Titan Ares 8 with controller
Dehumidifier: Quest 110 Pint

Plants are cloned and placed into 5" pots to what I call Pre-veg under t-5 for 2 weeks, then transplanted right from those into the 6.6 gallon, I know its a big jump but it seems to work very well for me. When they are transplanted into the 6.6 gallon the move into the sealed room to veg for 4 weeks on the nose this time. After 4 Weeks on the nose of veg I switch to flower. At harvest my stalks were gigantic for 1 month of indoor veg, I'm guessing a combination of the co2 and the lighting but the biggest was 5 1/2" around the perimeter.

Yield after 2nd Run:
Light 1 Cappucino 420: 1,640g
Light 2 Blue Dream: 1,527g
Light 3 Green Crack: 1,765g
Light 4 Was a mix of Dark Star, Gorilla Wreck and the least yielding light: 1,387g
Light 5 Mega Jackpot (My favorite overall tasting) : 1,805g
Light 6 Gorgonzola ( My favorite smelling) : 1,593g

I know I'm gonna get haters and people telling me my numbers are crap. But this is dry weight with and additional 3 weeks of cure at the moment (I plan on letting it cure up another couple of weeks probably). But I have been growing for over 10 years now, this has been obtained through years of hard work and many many setbacks and failures and a lot of money into my room. I finally have it all dialed in :)

I'm running one 1000w HPS in a 5x5 tent. It's almost wall to wall with flower. Let's just say 90-95% full. I vegged from clone for six weeks in 3 gallon plastic pots. It's my first attempt and many mistakes were made along my journey. I'm about a week to a week and a half from harvest and it looks to me like a pound is possible. But with that said, I'm sure my eyes lie and the weed sirens are playing tricks on me. In reality it will most likely be closer to 1/2 - 3/4 of a pound dried and cured. I can't fake the funk though. I am curious

PICS!!
Also big diff between se and de. 2 lbz off a se is actually real tough. I’ve seen near 4 off double ended tho. (thats being run at 1150 a fair bit with co2)
I’m shooting for 1.5 out of my 5x5 off an se 1k super in a cool tube. If i do better, great but I doubt it. I run my ballast at 750 lately more than 1000 let alone 1150. But when I start running out of room in there I’ll back er off a bit and just send it. I’m finding having the bulb nice and close at lower wattage better if I don’t need a ton of spread. At 750w it’s not even Warm a few inches away

I am in between runs in the big room right this second, working on cleaning and sanatizing the room at the moment. And I am not in a legal state, so I never got into the habbit of taking pictures. But I have a 5' x 10' tent going right now in bio under 2 1000w hps, no CO2 air is just constantly pulled through the tent. Currently on day 22 of flower. I will take some pictures of it later today, and will take some of the big room as it sits in between runs to show the layout.

I could get 2.5 lbs a light in 75 days with grow time. 5 day veg 70 bloom. People get less when they veg too long. Out of lets sat 30 strains I had started only 2 could produce the numbers I speak. A buddy of mine would get 3.3 lbs 1000 watts in 90 days veg included. It's all the strain. Then the food. If your food is not reactionary weed does nothing. Plus at least 99 percent of cannabis strains are for rope. One learns alot when buying seeds from around the world. Serious though genetics and food. It's not rocket science. Now I use led and am trying to figure that. I did get a pound off of around 400 watts of led.

Veg is wayyy toooooo long. Modern pot growing got better due to forced flowering. Once your plant wastes energy growing a large plant it has no more energy to crete large blooms. Not to mention potency diminishes. Think about how a pot plant has a limited amount of thc it can grow. You want it concentrated not spread out.
