you will be looking at .17 to .30 grams/watt with 2-600watt on a 4x8. optimal conditions and expertise might land closer to 1/2 gram/watt on that set up but thats still not the desired yeild. 3x600watts being closer to 2x1000watts, but less heat, closer to canopy, awesome possem

I think most growers with even a little experience can hit .30 grams/watt that's just fair-----my last yield was just under 1.15 grams per watt and I ran out of co2 two weeks before I pulled them. I've done this for too long to lie or exaggerate---I'm not trying to be sharp or boast but just state the facts----my set-up is---------50#-3 gallon pots in soil on a bionacare true 4'x8' table(inside diameter is 4'x8') i run adjustable height sealed and air cooled radiant 8" hoods with hortilux super-eye hps bulbs with global greenhouse digis. I run co2 at 1500ppms after the first sign of flowering-I make my own teas with guano and sucanat and mix varies nutrients and additives into the feeds as needed---my soil is ocean forest with added bat gauno in the bottom of pots---I run it very loose with added perlite/fytocell--almost a 1-1-1 ratio---I have found that I veg my clones about a week longer than most---I add sucanat all the way till I cut them down-----the strain is "godzilla" 85/15 ind dom hybrid-------if I'm not pulling 1 gram/watt then I've done something wrong.

I got a 1000 watt agro lite in a air cooled hood. Put a 400 watt hortilux on each side of it. Works nice for me. About 2.5 lbs per 60 day grow cycle. Heat in the summer is a pain in the ass. I have 7 fans running for about 2500 cfms to keep it cool.

I have never used them but a lot of growers swear by them----I have my light on pulleys so them can be moved up or down------I run high volumes of air through my sealed hoods SO that I can put them inches over the canopies without burn---I also trim the bottom 1/3rd of the plants because the light cannot penetrate that far down---more energy goes to the main cola. I can only squezz 50#-3 gallon pots into one table so I need to get as close to a zip per plant to reach my goal-----I always run a few extra pots on the sides to make sure-----it alwas works itself out.
