Guestimate my yield?

Hey guys!

This is my first grow. I'm in week 4 of bloom phase right now. The plants saw a huge stretch last week, and I think it's finally done. The lights (600w LED) have been raised to the frame and I tied down branches that creeped to the top. This is a 2x4x5 ft tent and I am using Floragro 3 parts dosed for 3 gallons for each DWC bucket, following their recommendations on the bottle.

I think I could pull a pound from this grow, what say you, based on the size and bud sites from this shitty pic?
 
It depends on how big each budsite gets. You do have alot of sites but it's a stretchy sativa so who knows.

The size of your stems is dick thick so I imagine you'll get quite alot of bud.
 
Do you know how many actual watts your lights pull from the wall?
Each unit is rated 300w. I haven't taken a multimeter to it or anything. Edit: they are Mars Hydros. I found some reviews that say they pull about 270w from the wall. I am not sure how they came up with that figure, though.

Those look like Mars 600s, which are 280w at the wall, I think. I have one, it has grown a lot of bud.

Yep, that's exactly what it looks like. I got them used for a bargain from a local grower. Filter, fans, 2x light units, temp controller, all in for $200. I wish I would have bought the other two from him. He still has a 600w HPS for sale, but I don't think I need it!
 
Thanks yall! I am so stoked! Eventually when I am able to, I will come back and click the like button on your replies. I'm guessing there is a post count minimum to be able to do that. But by then I think I will also have an update on the actual yield :)

Reviving this thread to say I made a mistake and harvested at 8 weeks because I got all paranoid about smell. Now I have a new carbon filter and things are going much better with clones from one of these plants. I ended up with about 8oz. With the current grow, I did a lot of pruning and I have larger buds and less fan leaves. Going the full 12 or more. Depending on what's needed.
