Soil SOG - 1000w HPS - expected yield?

I am looking for some thoughts on a new setup relating to potential yields. Here is the setup contemplated, Im looking to replicate Al B Fuct's setup in soil form:
> 48 plant SOG in 1.25 gallon 6" pots. Setup would be 12 plants per stage, harvesting every two weeks.
> Soil grow using Fox Farms Ocean Forest w a 20% mix of perilite addition
> Fox Farms nutrients
> Nirvana seeds (AK48, Aurora) + BC gods bud - 4 plants of each strain in the> 12 plant cycle.
> 1000 watt HPS (standard ballast) with 27"x33" , 6" vented hood. No Co2.
> Clones taken at 6-9" long, rooted in aerocloner, veg time in soil of 4-7 days MAX

Is it reasonable to think I could yield 3-4 oz per cycle? This would put each single stem plant at 8-10 grams each. I have not yet harvested using the AK or Aurora. The BC GB is a decent yielder. Thoughts would be appreciated.

perpetual in SOG wouldnt be my first choice. I think that if you shoved that many under there at once vegged 4 days and flipped that you would be able to pull a pound without trying. and thats the yield your looking for if you want 4oz every 2 weeks. If your not using co2 make sure your bringing in fresh air. if you choke them your not going to yield shit.

and in my opinion, foxfarm nutrients blow. There is definitely better for the buck, I would look into something else.

Patrick - thanks for the input, I am looking to consistently yield a LB with you needing to veg for long periods of time. Any suggestions others than FF? I have been using FF for almost two years now and generally I have been happy.
