    Default Plant Yield

    I am a first-time grower. I produced a few plants that were of very good quality, but the yield was extremely low. I was able to harvest only between 1/8 and ¼ oz. per plant.

    I am preparing to start a new batch consisting of a few dozen plants but I hate to have identical results. These plants have been started from seed and will be transplanted within the next few days. I am looking for suggestions that will help to produce a more reasonable yield per plant. In looking at various sites, I have seen 1 to 1-1/2 oz as the low end of a normal yield per plant.

    We are using both high-pressure sodium and metal halide. I know that the wattage on at least one of those types is 400 watts, possibly on both. We have about fifty seeds that have already germinated in small pots that we are placing out on shelves tomorrow, with fluorescent lighting. I just started reading information on-line in these past few days, but I want to have as much of my information together, before getting to the critical stages in their development.

    One of the types grown was Low Ryder. It looked fantastic, but the quality was only marginal. The skunk and Purple Haze turned out well but still yielded very small.

    The biggest problem I am experiencing, at this point, is that almost all of this is brand new to me, so I am overwhelmed with information. Since many of these postings are a random mish-mash of different topics, it is difficult for me to coordinate all of this into a linear format that I can follow through from start to finish. So, it takes a lot of sifting for me to pull out facts that are pertinent to my immediate issues.

    either spend a lot of time at your computer reading all info or ask specific ?s in thread form. if you can make a nice looking plant you probably just need info on flowering care and nutes

    The information may not be 100% accurate anymore, but one of the biggest things that helped me was reading Jorge Cervantes' grow bible before attempting anything. It will give you an in depth knowledge of how to grow, and has some pretty good pictures to refer to if you're having problems and ways to solve them. Everything else you'll learn as you go. Pick up the book though, its definitely worth having in my opinion.

    Do you know if this publication is available on-line, or would a person have to buy a hard copy?
