I could honestly care less about grams per watt. Electricity for a 2x4 is cheap with any light. Grams/sqft is more important imo.Hello, everyone! Wondering what good leds are capable of producing? It seems like anything from 0.5 gram per watt with a shitty grow all the way up to 2.5 gram a watt for a master grower all dialed in with co2. This is keeping in mind: strain, humidity/temps, training, veg time, and all important factors. To be very clear this is not a what's my yield or what's your yield? As there are too many variables. This is an 'in your opinion' type of question. What do you think they are capable of yielding given great/ideal growing conditions and a good yielding strain? We are talking hlg, gavita, any nice led.
A lot of factors come into play so trying to see what led growers are shooting for as a target. Actually read the pound in a gallon pot thread and the solo cup thread challenge this morning. Just trying to get an idea of what I should be shooting for being new to the led game. As stated above from my research it seems 0.5g shitty grow up to 2.5 grams a watt is possible. But figured the grand master og growers on here would educate my ass. Thanks for the participation everyone.
That is awesome lol the og grand master grower! Sounds like you've been killing it.I did about 2 grams per watt on my first LED grow and that's with a number of mistakes I made. I didn't bother to weigh my second or third, but each was an improvement over the first.
With the right strain, enough light, and proper care ... I can see 3 gpw for an experienced grower and possibly more.
There's no doubt that proper lighting increases yield, but it's not "just" the lighting. It's the gardner too.That is awesome lol the og grand master grower! Sounds like you've been killing it.
Exactly. I couldn't have said it better ....Me personally I think a little bit of everything comes into play. Genetics, light used, nutrients, room temps and humidity,ventilation,training methods used, veg time and size of plant, health of plant, growing medium, grower's skill along with time and effort put it. Being able to diagnose and fix problems as they come up. Basically a bit of everything. Giving the babies lots of love... Lol your basically a pimp raising these bitches to get the very most out of em!
That would be almost 11oz in a 2x2 with a 100w light. What does that even look like? lol, 22 clones packed together with one week veg?All other variables excluded etc...hard to guess really, but I'm sure over 3g per Watt is possible, I got well over 2g per watt my first time growing, using 300watt (2xTS1000 from Mars Hydro)
It was a bit tight in the tent in the endThat would be almost 11oz in a 2x2 with a 100w light. What does that even look like? lol, 22 clones packed together with one week veg?
What was the yield?
thats a lot of solo cups... i need to start drinking - better to use cups that had vodka and juice in them!That would be almost 11oz in a 2x2 with a 100w light. What does that even look like? lol, 22 clones packed together with one week veg?
I haven't a 100% figure but I was looking at a bucket with 511g of cured buds and 570g of frozen Nugs and sugar trim in the freezer, that's without accounting for anything I smoked for over 4 weeks as some finished quicker than other, as a guesstimate I would say it would have been close enough to 750g if everything had been kept/dried/cured until the end.What was the yield?
So you grew 750 with 350w in how many days?I haven't a 100% figure but I was looking at a bucket with 511g of cured buds and 570g of frozen Nugs and sugar trim in the freezer, that's without accounting for anything I smoked for over 4 weeks as some finished quicker than other, as a guesstimate I would say it would have been close enough to 750g if everything had been kept/dried/cured until the end.
I'm under zero illusion that I'll get that lucky with this 2nd grow but I'm keeping optimistic for about 4-500g but that is also with an extra light so I have 450 instead of 350w this time.
