Green crack grow yield guesstimate

Really tho .6 grams per watt might be realistic so maybe like 2 1/4lb I wouldn't expect anymore than that with your lights and the plants look pretty sad.

Thiis is only my third grow, maybe because this picture was one week without water, pic taken before water. Not undermining you,but I thought they looked healthy atleast in person it looks. Why do you think they look sad? Thanks for your input!

Probably just the watering they just look super droopy in that pic as long as they perked up after watering I'm sure your ok. Some leaves look like they are clawing quite a bit which led me to think they might have too much nitrogen. It's hard to guess yield there so many factors like how old your bulbs and reflectors are I think dimming hps reduces your per watt output.also what led do you have? If it's a blurple it will maybe get you .5 gpw. That's real watts people don't really talk in "led watts" anymore
 
Thanks for the information..it's 500 watt true wattage of both LEDs together (250 each) I believe its blurple. They got good reviews but are definetely cheapys compared.to the good ones. Some leaves do look like they are clawing a bit and have nitrogen issues but overall it's not too bad...thanks again man

No problem if you look at getting LEDs again in the future make sure you go for the white led and only buy from companies that post real watts only if they post "led watts" they aren't a good company to buy from also make sure they are willing to tell you the brand of diode they use stay away from epistar brand diodes.

Thanks buddy, I had one that was white once, true watts 300 it was great. Thanks for the wise words

Brave statement.

I do well with cheaper end "blurple" LED unit, approx 375 TOTAL REAL WATTS and I bounce between 0.88GPW and 1.33GPW in a 1.2m x 1.2m tent.

Brave, but true for the most part. I grew with a CLW Solar Storm 440 for a few years (solar storm series with the osram are widely considered amongst the best blurples ever made) and I did very well with it and pulled similar GPW to what you are getting. That being said, my HLG Quantum Board is outperforming it without a doubt. less power from the wall, less heat, can be run closer to the canopy... it's all win. But I do agree that a high quality blurple will do better than many give them credit for. Nice pics btw.
