depends on many variables such as strain, grow medium (soil, hydro) lighting used, nutrients, size of space grown in, even the condition of the plant.

Can u show a pic of da plant i can give u a rough estamite from it. also how is your grow room set up ? temp ? soil or hydro ? lights ? how old ?
 
only god knows that one or "the grow gods " of this page might be able to give you a round about guess but nothing is exact and dont get excited tell it all dryes .......hope it is a good amount ................
 
yeah ive been trying to read up on sum estimates and yeild it really comes down to how well you grow it and the strain i know everyone says not to worry about yeild ur first couple grows but for me its really hard not to
 
okay i can not give you a pic at this time but i can tell you it is a bag seed in a 2ft d x 5ft w x 7ft high closet with 6 4ft flourescent tubes (40w) with a small fan circulating the air and it is in a 6 gallon self watering pot... this my first grow, used shop lights i had laying around! i am growing it for myself actually... i had 3 but my lights fell and chopped down 2 of them! (the plant is 32" tall but it will be bout 5 ft or more when it goes into flowering.)

The more light the better. Those shop lights are ok to vegg with but not so great for flower. CFL's(curly floros) put out alot more light if you are on a budget. Get the ones that say kitchen or warm white(2700k). Keep them about two inches away from the tops.

Yea dude it really doesnt matter how many fluorescents you have when it comes to the flowering stage, you need a red spectrum light not blue or white like shop lights. Also CFLs are ok but for a 5ft plant will will need at least 1 150w HPS 2100k bulbs. You can order some for a descent price a Htgsupply.com and they ship in plain brown box. With those lights depending on nutes and experience I would guess maybe 1/2oz-1oz. With a 150w HPS and good nutes a 5ft tall plant could easily produce 1/4 pound, so that means you could be losing 3oz with not having a HPS. What kind of reflective material do you have that also matters because if you dont have reflection then there is alot of wasted light, what is the kelvin temp of those flouros or are they mixed bulbs. Depending on strain this is the best info I can give you so I hope I helped you out.
 
they are all the bright white ones not blue or red looking... but i also have a small red head light in the room (its my way of a lil extra heat in the room) gets pretty cold some times but i just got a heater to put in there when the light is off
