    Arrow How much can i expect to yield? Please help : )

    Ok so im planning on buying a superbox from supercloset.


    i think its around a metre high? I would be growing hydro with a 200w cfl , what would i expect to yield from just 1 auto flowering plant? (have not chose a strain yet)


    peace

    $800 for a box and then you want to grow with CFL? Hmmm....

    i have not grown in the described conditions although a good educated guess
    would be 3/4 to 1 oz. under optimum conditions maybe a bit more.

    The light penetration of the cfl will limit yield.

    fuck worring about yield. Worry about keeping them alive to harvest.

    Nobody can tell you your yield! That simple. There are too many factors that affect the outcome. I do agree that with a 200w cfl you are going to produce bud, just not much. You probably have your reasons for wanting cfl but if you are going to drop that much into a tent you may want to spend the little extra for a decent light. A magnetic ballast and bulb doesn't cost much more than a ton of cfl's and the fixtures to plug them into.

    I would do a parabolic scrog and be happy to get 2 oz, ecstatic with 4. Mind you, I have no experience of autos.

    Default How nuch yield

    Frikin' HATE auto's but that's because I like the control I have over my plants.
    This is probably a thread too, or else it should be...
    People here are not trying to be scornful, rather just pointing out some issues (in their own way) and trying to get a point across.
    I canker that spending $'s on a grow box would be better spent on some plastic black-out and some GOOD HID lighting. The cost for a good lighting system will be returned in a decent harvest. CFL's are really only effective for cloning as their penetration into the plant's canopy is severely limited. About the only redeeming factor is that they don't run nearly as hot and use less energy; but to use them effectively to grow and flower MMJ, you'd need a bunch and wind up spending more in the long run and still get worse yields. Indoor growing is tricky and requires far more attention to the plants.
    Most indoor growers average 2-4 ounces/plant, and I use that loosely. Some people have gotten figures in the pounds too. It all depends on about a dozen factors and is way too easily misunderstood. There is no hard and fast rule of yield vs strain wither it is Auto or not. I guess the single most simple factor is Sativa vs Indica on an indoor grow. This is why there is so much popularity and experimentation with the Hybrids of today's availability. The breeders are trying to create the best of both genotypes in one plant and keep it consistent. Hope this helps...
