Umm... @sixstring could you break this down...
Umm... @sixstring could you break this down...Wait a sec... 0.1 gpw is what you are getting? So you are getting less than 4 oz per 1000 watts?
And when you say change out veg leaves to flower leaves, can you explain your process for this?
dude im gonna read the rest of the thread before I comment, but there is several reasons he is out doing you.But after a bad first grow I let a experienced buddy take the reins n setup everything his way, his clones, nute choice, water schedule, Eve re thang.
But he doesn't do soil. Lol.
But long story short, he pulls nearly 2g per w. His basics are 50g res, 13 rubber maid containers, 2.5 or 3 in piping, 4 plants, 2- 1000w de grativa hps, runs c02 at 1600 and uses a 7 strand clone that's a solid hybrid of 9lb hammer mainly ment to give big yields.
It's a huge room, sealed, ac.....prolly $20k equipment to run/automate things.
thank you brother for returning us to plausibility..i get .10 gpw running 1 plant under 8 mars panels.total power used is like 5900w but i should do better now that i found out you need to change the veg leaves to flower leaves or use both types of leaves in flowering modes :cool:
we need to change this shit to oz per sq foot.i seen one guy in all my years of being on the net do a legit grow,documenting all the way through and weighing it out on youtube,and he pulled like 1.5- 1.6 gpw (growmau5) maybe 2 guys,think i seen gg do it also.
oh this may get good after all!Oh boy here we go...
dude im gonna read the rest of the thread before I comment, but there is several reasons he is out doing you.
Lastly this a very flawed question as De are way more powerful than single 1ks, as well as hydro to soil..
As well as controlled room.. well let me see how many others prob done told you this as I read the rest of the thread...
Understood and agreed!I'm not trying compare him to me
I have a 4x3 closet n a 600w. He has a tiny building built out.
My setup prolly costs 850/900 bux. He's in for $25+
I'm just saying he pulls close to 2g per watt, but it ain't no home garden. He's half way to real industrial type production.
But it's what I try to dial down n aim for it. But I keep dolllars of your setup in mind when looking at yield.
Ok here it is.Ummm... so why did you post the numbers you did in the first quote that I just posted and replied to? I was just saying your % dont add up even close...
I just cant comment until sixstring explains the leaf swap out technique that he utilizes for such yields as .10
Is that good or bad? I’m short on solar panel.lolI'm No Mathematician But I Did Stay At A Holiday Inn Express Last Night :party1:
6.5 Lbs=2624 Grams Divided By 3200 Watts =0.82 GPW :smoking:
I am curious as to what people are pulling off their lights. How many grams do you harvest for how many watts of light used. Obviously lots of factors make things different. Feel free to list any details about your findings. Kind of Light is key to understanding ratio. All answers will interest someone.
I conquer!!guys, cover your manginas. Unless your yields are netting you over 1m$ + , the feds couldn't care less what your doing.
So, I been doing this for.... Yeah, awhile. My first grow was a 4x4 tent constructed by wrapping a pvc pipe rectangular cube skeleton with Mylar. Granted I had been involved with this plant closely for many years before growing my own, which gave me an advantage. Inside the tent was a single 1k hps connected to a can fan 6 which sucked air from the tents interior, Through a can filter 6 , then out of the tent through ducting adjacent to the filter
No co2
Active air intake
No ac
Within the tent I lined 4 oscillating fans which kept 4 green crack and 4 blue dream plants fluttering constantly in the grow.
1x 1000watt hps equaled 1.5lbs of dried smoke. I sold 1lb to a clinic for 3800usd and smoked the rest.
Many years, many improvement and a growing love for my comrade, cannabis - has rewarded me with success and pleasure to the tune of 2.5gmw in my current, permanent op.
Cheers to the Gardners who understand that the plants needs and requirements should always trump the Gardner's.
very nice utilization of space.very nice indeedI conquer!!View attachment 768824
or i should say what space lolvery nice utilization of space.very nice indeed

are you talkin wet weight? im just not seeing 1# plants in your posts unless your holdin back to good stuff ?sea of green is the most common. Over the years I've become more interested in having a close personal connection with my plants. If it if in my garden, every leaf is accessible, every plant can be walked around. I gave up sea of green for larger, more matured veg plants with a fraction of the count. My smallest room has larger plants than most have seenView attachment 768857 View attachment 768858 week 5. Still alot of thickening and hardening ahead. 1lb per plant under 3k watts with 4 plants is childsplay. 5.5 possible.
