Just had a few growing questions, as I am not sure if I am growing the most profitable way possible. I am running a flood and drain system on a 4x4 under a 1000w light, and am doing about 30-40 plants a tray about 40-48 inches high, running them in 4x4 rockwool, with the 2 part Advanced nutrient line, and am only getting about a oz per plant if that, one thing I am about to do that I have not before is cover the room in that bright white reflective material, but dont think that is too much of a big thing, keep my ph 5.8-6.5 and ppm 400-1200 max, and running big bud strain now to hope for bigger yields I hear these other growers growing half lb per plant and was wondering if I am doing something wrong or should be doing something diff, for instance I heard that some growers do a 5 gal bucket system where they hang a bulb down vertically and rotate plant every so often in soil, but this way seems like it would take much longer.

your help appreciated
 
It could be your strain. I am running Pure Power Plant from Nirvana and the produce more than an oz dry per 24" plant.

Some strains are not great producers.
 
I can't envision how you get 30-40 plants each 40-48 inches in a 4x4 table. Is there a typo in there? And ounce from a 3-4ft plant is not enough. But an ounce from 40 plants in a 4x4 is 2 1/2 lbs which doesn't sound so bad.
 
Id have to say its the strain ur using man. cus most 40-48 inch tall plants should be givin u like 2 ozs a plant unless ur growin a strain that just grows lil popcorn buds. wat kind of light r u using ? an hrs on/off ?
 
But an ounce from 40 plants in a 4x4 is 2 1/2 lbs which doesn't sound so bad.

There's nothing wrong with 2½ lbs off a 1000w 4x4 huh! That's almost .9 gram per watt. :bigjoint:

It sounds like you're over crowded, but it's not yield per plant that you should focus on ... it's overall yield per year imo.
 
If you get 40oz a run with your light your setup is very good.
That 1.13gram per watt.
With a 1000W thats a very impressive number.
