I would agree with Worm, at least another 3 weeks, possibly 4. They'll get huge though so will double in size easy I think. Looking good so far for you putting the grow down. Keep it up Many Clouds.

To save me from browsing 3271 pages, do a few people think they could throw out an average harvest weight from a 600w lamp. Ive been thinking of upgrading from a 400. Just looking for some differences in weight, heat, lighting footprint, etc.

I get between 6 ounces and 9 ounces every time.
I grow in soil, organically as possible for my circumstances.
But others can get more by using a SCROG method and/or hydro, and/or adding CO2.
My usable light footprint is just over 36" x 36" (right at a meter squared). With my sealed & ducted light hood, I can get my plants to within a few inches of the glass with out stressing them with heat.
You can veg 4 big plants and get your 6-to-8 ounces, or you can grow 16 little ones with almost no veg and get the same amount.
As with the 400, light penetration is the issue.
The taller the plant, the less light the lower branches & buds get, the lighter & fluffier they will be in comparison to the well-lit bud sites.

To quell the quietness:
*my dad grew up in the 1930's down in the Big Toe of Louisiana, about a mile from the Atchafalaya Swamp.
As kids, 8 years old, he & his best friend, Jr. DeBlanc, would hitch hike into New Orleans to go to the movies and to hang out in the French Quarter before hopping a train back home at the start of night.
He's got some stories about some of the shtuff that used to go on down there in it's wilder days.
I grew up listening to Big Band & Swing, and played lots of it on my clarinet, thanks to that ol' coon ass dad of mine.

You are asking an irrelevant question.... what do you yield now? add 25% to that, good rough estimate.

Perhaps to much of a general question as oppossed to an irrelevent one, but yeh, I would also say add 25%, unless you change the way you grow as well. Of course by adding a light you may need to think of higher temps unless you also increase air supply and air flow for example. Anything upwards of 16oz per light on high end dank should be achievable. Commercial grade large yielders then whatever.
Footprint is similar to a 400, +/-1m squared on average.

If you can manage the heat with extra ventilation (and the larger electricity bill from the second light & extra fan/s), I'd ADD the 600w instead of using it solo.

now that more like it,add more light,and make the adjustments,that need to be made.

So 600 whats up??...it has been more than a month since I last posted on here......
Well i can say I yielded around 400 grams from 10 plants under a 600 and still had 3 tangerine dreams i had put outside due to size......so not bad after al...I would have reached 600 grams with the 3 TD's......but now due to limited space had to change my 600 w tent for a 400w one.....
Now i have 1 papaya plant in a 20l pot under ome 400 and Im looking forward to scrogging it.....
Is that pot size good for a 400gram yield or should i go bigger and also for how long should i veg for max yield????....
Tnx verry much and pics to be posted soon...

I hopped in one of the company trucks at work yesterday to pick up some material and the stereo was set to a classic rock station. I used to listen to a lot of classic rock but have come away from it for whatever reason and thought I'd just leave it there and see how I still like it. Right away I was taken back to the days of going to Rush concerts and bilding RC planes with a buddy of mine while listening to stuff like Rush, Skynird (sp?), The Styx and others in the same genre. It was nice to think about those memories and I found out that I still really enjoy those bands.
Of course, when I went back to my desk, popped in an earbud and hit play on the PC there was something completely different playing which I still enjoy very much. Old school punk music like Flogging Molly, Rancid and such...
I love playing LastFM and just letting it do random searches to find new stuff to listen to and so far it has introduced me to Dubstep and got me listening to other music again like older hip hop and rap and older metal bands like Megadeth, Metallica, Dio, Iron Maiden and such. Now I've added some classic rock to my library on there to listen to as well.

Good evening all. Here to show off my Caliband (Calizhar X Caseyband). I was going to chop but I'm going to leave her a few more days. She's still 40 or 50% clear but there are some nice deep ruby red heads here and there. Anyone into going back to 74.

My wife asked me what I'd do if one morning I woke up, sat up in bed and said, "Man, FUCK Rush." and then got rid of their albums & never listened to them or played along to their music ever again.
I told her I'd check myself into a mental ward for observation, because something drastically wrong would had to have happened to me while I slept for that to ever happen.
Seriously.

Damn, duchie, you're moving on into what I refer to as "text book" grows: looks like what you'd see as prime examples in a horticulture book.
Flippin' nice job!

My wife knows I can play over 100 of their songs, and asked about the ones I don't like to play along to.
Then she asked if I liked to play along to their "mainstream songs", like "Lime Light" and "Uncle Tom's Cabin"...
While a good book, it has nothing to do with "Tom Sawyer" (or Huckleberry Finn, etc), either in book form or song subject matter.
But I got a good laugh when she said it.
