what will it take to get 4 pounds out of five plants with a 1000 watt in ten gallon grow bags soil grow
Your limiting factor will be your lighting. One 1000 watt bulb will yield you a gram per watt (best case scenario) which works out to a little over 2 pounds.

4 pounds isn't very likely, imo.

I've seen 18 pounds from 9 blue dreams with 10,000 watts( 4 1000's and 10 600's) of light vertically hanging no hoods. I helped trim it and my friend is gonna be pulling again in a few weeks :-P

I'm doing blue dream for my first time right now. I'm kinda wondering why anyone would ever want to grow anything else.
They keep telling me.. "dude, grow blue dream.. it is amazing." I am like yeah yeah,. I want a heavy indica..

But right now I have Purple Tangerine, blue dream is its grand parent. I also just got my Big Buddhas Blue Cheese in the mail.

Dan put it best. I'm suprised nobody pointed out that what this guy wants is over 4 grams per watt! When someone asks a question like that it's so obvious they're pipe dreaming. That people actually induldged him and started suggesting strains is just too funny. 4 grams per watt folks!
I'm not sure I've ever seen or heard of 4 GPW. Even the craziest vert settups don't get that.

Ooh ooh let me do the math :)

My friends most successful grow was also from blue dream. 5 1/2lbs with 3k watts.
5.5 lb x 454 grams/lb = 2497 grams 2497 grams/3000 watts = .83 grams/watt

18 lb x 454 grams/lb = 8172 grams 8172 grams/10,000 watts = .82 grams/watt

So less than 1 gram/watt seems to hold.

Yep. 0.8 grams a watt is pretty damn good. If we're talking about high quality stuff. I'd take that.

ROFLMAO!! I will happily take whatever the plants give me :) but let's see; 600 watts * .8grams/watt = 480 grams

WOW I would be jackpot happy with 1/4 of that. Actually I'll be very happy if I simply don't kill them. For whatever reason my TDS meter just died :( back to TDS meter shopping LOL

I love it here. I learn so much and you guys are a lot of fun.

Hang the bulb vertical
construct an octagonal flooded tube with high pressure aeroponic misters with 100 sites and 5 levels
fill that with 100 plants
Use the highest yielding indica dominant strain around
Use CO2 enrichment
Line everything with mylar
Keep temperature and humidity perfect
Use the best nutrients available

You might get 4 pounds

or you could just get another 1000watts and keep it simple

BTW he's not saying 4GPW, 4 pounds from 1000 watts is 1.8GPW
