Big Bud -yields

yo dudes i gt a lil pickle need some help with.

im trying to predict soley by figures given to me what my yield should / could be from 10 plants of "Big Bud" strain.
ive had like a million arguements with people saying i chat shit and blah blah blah etc etc.
so ive kinda set this up to try and prove once and for all exactly what yield can be achieved.
ok this is my set up (hope ur takin notes to work out what u reacon yield should be)

i got a 10ft(l) 4ft(w) 6ft(h) shed. it is fully lined in cheap thick black plastic, then double lined with super doopa badboy diamonded reflectagro sheeting.

i got 2 lamps. both 1000w and do the usual swapping from metal halide to hps for the veg.

i keep the temperature at a constant 68degrees in there and humidity is messed with a little but never too far away from the 25/30 mark except during harvest period.

i give the plants plenty of nutes and the ph of my soil is nearly always 6.6

i veg for slightly longer than advised normally 6 weeksish.

i like chunky plants and ive never used clones, always demolish plants when stripping for bud. i only ever buy feminized seeds.

i use 20gallon drums sawn off at 3/4's as pots and use "canna" peat based composty soil stuff mixed with a little rough sand.

i got pest control sorted, never got mites up to yet

people reacon you can get 1.2g per W off big bud, and i can catagorically say it is a legend when it comes to yields. not a bad smoke at all either, would recommend everyone to have at least one big bud plant.

so JUST taking 1.2g per watt, thats straight away 1.2 x 2000 = 2400g

then you can do 2400g + 28 = 85.72ish (so say 85 and 3 quarter oz)

then if you allow 70% diminishment in weight due to water retention in the buds your overall yield should be 25oz and about 3/4's aswell. so thats 2 lbs nearly off


THIS IS WHERE MY PROBLEM STARTS.4

i know for a fact that when its dry im lucky to have 2 kilos , sometimes under 1.5 kilos. (but only once has that happened) does that 1.2g per W count per plant or just as a blanket prediction for the growing area.

cause if i had nearly 260oz that would be unreal right???? its just the maths im stuck / confused with....any eggheads fancy explaining this one 4 me?
