I have read what you guys are saying about yield. I have put over 15 years into perfecting one method and 4 strains and I do get 21/4 lbs per 1000 w Consistantly !Thats not to say I havnt got more but also have got less.Not much though. If your not growing a high yielding strain you are not likely to get that kind of yield. I used a strian called R1 a few times. And yielded 102oz from 2 1000 w lights, but could not make it happen again. I have tried many grow methods and have always went back to the bread and butter. With the information available via Internet It is easier to learn now. Although, I have read some garbage out there. Experience and learning how your strain reacts will always be king when it comes to indoor gardening. Dont bother to google R1 strain it does not exist anymore.Also I wont believe 3 LBS per 1000 watts from a indoor yield unless I was the one Harvesting.It doesnt really count if its not ready all at one time. If I took extra time after initial harvest I could probably say oh ya I get 3LBS per g watt, but I prefer good product not the garbage that comes from harvesting same crop twice.

If i were a betting man.... i say less than 20% of the growers get more than 1lb per 1000 watts and less than 2% get 2lbs or more per 1000 watts...


I do agree with weedcool... that once the system is dialed.... it can really start turning out the PRODUCT.... but most people just don't push it to that level... which is fine... 1lb per light is not bad. 2lbs is GREAT..

2.5 lbs is fooking is radical.....

I just got around a pound dry from 1 600 watt with 6 plants of a unknown strain, all were clones. I didnt have C02, and heat and humidity were a problem. I did have a extended veg time. This time around I have more light.

All you people that have yield expectations early in your growing experience are setting yourselves up for dissapointment.

More light means more heat so make sure you jack up your ventilation.

Thanks for that valuable post!! So you are saying a 1000 watt light runs hotter than a 400? How does that have anything to do with this thread?

I helped some friends take down their Colosseum grow that was 1000w hps and 200 plants which
pulled about 5lbs, most efficient grow I've seen in person but was a lot of work to maintain.

I'm not sure how much heaths 600w vertical flood system yielded, but I'm sure it was on par with
the results desired for that 2.5lbs/ 1000w light grow.

I know that scrog alone increases yield with fewer plants even. Though there is a longer veg time. The grower acquaintances have told me they usually at least harvest 1 lb under 1k soil or hydro. Hydro being the most on avg. Many are novices just trying a scrog and not dedicating much love or attention! 1 lb is a lot of bud! 1.5 off of one thousand is great i think for a moderately skilled grower. Thats my opinion.
Also, i just was gonna say that i noticed a lot of people on here seem like they get a kick out of saying something wiseass as a response to a question. Just remember, there is not a person alive who has never had a beginning to their grow experience! i mean everybody has to start sometime if their in it! dont be mean just cuz you know something they dont. Many great sounding people on here for the most part. I have been reading a lot but just joined so i could input too

I dont sell weed and due to my location and where i grow, i am confined to using a 400watt hps. So using a 1000watt light or producing a 2lb yeild is an impossiblity for me. however if i chose to move my grow room to a place where i could actually maintain a 1000watt light, and if i had the money to buy the necessary supplys, I dont see why I, or anyone else would have a prob reaching that goal. I just dont know wtf I would do with 2lbs of weed every harvest besides smoke my self retarded.

we can argue semantics all night. all im saying is youve had your system up for 6 months. youre already getting nearly 2 lbs... and you said with some tweaking of it you expect to get a larger yeild in the future. Growing weed is not hard and if youre not getting 2lbs with a 1000watt light you could be if you fixed something. and if you cant maintain the correct growing environment for your light, you need to downgrade or accept the less than optimal results.

I guess I could have replaced the word "average" for "its been known to happen relativly often for people who have a decent understanding for what it takes to grow marijuana". I just assumed that when we were talking about people with 1000watt lights, we werent talking about the kids who are growing LR2 seeds in a computer tower in moms basement.

anyways. to answer OPs question. Id prob take the word of the man who owns the hydroponics store and inquire about the type of setup he used in addition to his light, and see if he can help you construct a similiar one if possible.

so then you don't know what you can do with a 1000, and the idea that its pretty normal is coming from some one who hasn't done it and doesn't know from experience.. that is why all the yells about you proving it. you wrong here, listen to knowm.

I think everyone failed to look at the dates of the post, until a few post ago no one has been in this thread in a year. Not that your posts aren't valuable, but don't realistically expect a response from any of those that posted this much later...Entertaining, because I've done this more then a few times myself. :p

Can you please tell me what strain
or strains you are using to reach these numbers

I would have to say 2 1/2 pounds with one 1000w from 5 plants is more then possible. In a longer narrow room with a light mover running open hoods and a solid tuned hydro set up is more then possible. He should be able to closer to 10oz per plant.

On my second grow I got 2lb under one light and just under 2lb on the other. SOG n no C02. I’ve got a lot to learn n think I got reasonably lucky although I was reading about growing for 12 months before I started. 2.5lbs I would of thought on a consistent basis 2.5lb was about maxing out....unless ur the guy who wrote three per Light for $500 a copy lol

I'm thinking 3 lbs from a 1000 watts is possible, but not with a single 1000 watt light.. I do think is doable with 3 315 watt cmh lights.. Here's 1lb 10ozs with done 2 315 watt cmh and only two plants.. Two different strains with a common reservoir..Not too short of 2 lbs, with another week in veg it would have been close to 2lbs.. These are about 15 week grows, seed to harvest..

Id say very doable.

Lets talk gram per watt level... considered to be a good production with an experienced grower and a tuned setup.

1000 grams / 453.6 = 2.2 pounds

So lets say he had a ballast thats cranked to 1150 watts...

1150 / 453.6 = 2.53 pounds (again a gram per watt)
