If I am using a 250 MH and HPS in a closet the size of 3x3 with 6 foot height how much can I harvest performing a LST like this:

I am looking for 1/2 pound Harvest with my setup! Is this Possible?

View attachment 1736724

I am currently growing a White Widow Seedling and plan on performing this LST! Would I get what I'm looking for with this LST or SCROG the whole closet, 1/2 pound is what I WANT! With the lst in the pic, I think i can go around and around the bucket until I reach a height of 3 feet then flower! That should be tons of grow sites or will scrog be better!

Here is the Plant that will produce me an amazing harvest!

your going to have to real effecient, i hear a gram per watt is the round about figure in an ideal grow. 8 ozs=224g which is just under your 250.

Its hard to do, but it can be done. I had a similar tent set up and what I found was the 250 is not strong enough to produce the really dense buds you need for a 1/2 lbs plant. I had one that had 3 main colas and I got barely 2 ozs. Get a stronger light and take what mother nature gives you. Love the diagram by the way.:weed::weed::weed:

if EVERYTHING is perfect.. maybe lol.. but you need the right feed.. and strain.. Imo I would go 400 HPS.. for quality reasons.... You might get close on the yield but quality wouldnt be to my liking..

BUT... + rep on your last grow sir.. looked pretty good :)

are you trying to achieve this with just one plant ???? if so not sure if 250 i would look into the hordilux superblue not sure if they make a 250 mh and hps in one bulb takes alot of buds to make 1/2 pound and your goin to need light penetration to make it happen and proper ventilation and plenty of food good quality a repitable food
dont go cheep on your soil mixture thats goin to be the most crucial for a sucessful grow i would suggest seriously reading up on enzymes and other micro nutrients to make this sucsesfull i will keep up on this thread to give you a idea of what half pound plants look like here look at the pot sizes

3. Optimal lighting distance will be crucial for you.
4. Stock up on zip ties.
