    Its literally impossible to tell you what you will yield. Theres about a billion different variables that determine yield, the strain, environment, feedings, style of grow and everything in between. A pretty good rule of thumb is that you CAN achieve roughly 1gram/watt in IDEAL conditions.

    I average just over 2 lbs per 1000w light. If I was you, I would hope for 2-3 lbs of chronic plus a half pound-ish of smaller buds. That way if you end up with 2 you wont be disappointed and if you end up with 4 and 1/2 pounds of chronic you will be happy as hell.

    Good luck

    1 gram a watt that sucks so if i had 4000 watts i would get 10 pounds? because i have them and i might as well use them see i was going to but them outside if i did that would i really get 900 grams a plant with no problem i live in FL its always 70 to 90 degrees

    You will not achieve 1 gram a watt. That is an EPIC grow when you can achieve that, with EVERYTHING going perfect. Half a gram a watt is more normal for an average grow to achieve. You can safely bet you can produce .5 grams/watt.

    Like I said, in ideal conditions you CAN achieve 1 gram/watt.

    Hey bigbuds, just because your seed supplyer said 900g per plant, that really doesnt mean shit, they dont say how big, how much light, or how much nutes.

    Iv seen 1 plant that cropped 2 lbs dry, it was massive with lots of side lighting.


    Just because you have 4 1000w lights that doesnt mean you will get 10 lbs, Last grow I seen with 4000w lights cropped 9 lbs with about 120 plants. Again there are way to many variables, the only thing you can do is go for it and see what happens, its a bad idea to start counting your chickens before they hatch.

    man 8000 in 1 room is overkill and a waste of space/power. You need 4 on light rails, and you need another room. Run 4000 in 2 rooms at opposite times.

    You should seriously do a lot of research, if your claiming to be growing 12 plants under 8000 watts that seems like a crazy waste of light and power.

    I suggest doing a LOT of research before buying any more lights or anything, your gonna need at least 14000BTU of AC to keep that room cool even with air cool hoods. And those ballasts are going to be putting out enough heat to heat the rest of your house all winter.

    you gona light up a football field?
    you know they only intake so much light before they deflect it.
    Not gona change your yeild to a super yeild because you have 8k watts.

    *12 weeks veg time has doubled my yeilds.

    yeah if you want big yields grow big plants. that is veg them longer.

    best yields come from outdoor plants (2 pounds a plant is effortless in a full growing season)
