uhhhh wat?

1 pound yield

250w = near impossible, NASA IQ required
400w = difficult but not unachievable
600w = easy as 3.14
1000w = dirp, I did it!

More lumens means more yield, I don't care what anybody else says.

Yes but somebody will point out the one guy that allegedly pulled 1lb off 250 like it's the easiest thing in the world to do. They probably can't find a second one though....

He was comparing his 250w light to try and get what scottyballs is getting with his 400 and water farm....

Also if you can afford it add a little co2. I sure noticed a nice boost when i did.
Your only using a 3x3 so you dont need the real expensive regulators and a huge tank. Just get a small adition

the average adult male exhales at least 1 kilo of carbon dioxide per day, the longer you stay in your grow room the better, unless your body temperature raises air temperature.

I get 2.4 pds from one 1000hps in a 5x6, One pound is a relistic goal but more light is more reasonable, 250w aint gona cut it. more light = higher yields, denser buds and better quality. will require c02, airconditioning in my opion.

Then stick to what you have and don't expect a pound.

More plants in less space is going to reduce the overall potential of each plant because they have to share the space. So instead of 1 plant having 3x3 to grow you have 4 in a 3x3. No difference really. If you honestly want to get a pound spend the money and get a 400w ballast and light. You can use w/e hood you have. Just not the ballast or the bulb obviously...

Ehh. I think you could get a 1/2 lb easy in that space.. but a full lb? youll need a PERFECT enviro. and it will get cluttered.

I use 2x 600w. and my goal is a LB. with unlimited space..

My Entire Grow Closet is a Walk - In Closet that is 11ft x 5.5 Ft I am Using an Area at one end of the Closet that is 5.5 Ft x 3Ft with Mylar on the walls. Dynagro Nutes w/Bud Candy. Currently have 8 Plants from clones at 20 Inches High, Humidity range from 25% to 35%, Temp Between 74 & 81 Degrees. Using 400 Watts HPS at 16 Inches from the tops. Not really trying to get a pound. Just a quality yield. Later on I am going to use the entire space with 2 600 Watt HPS and shoot for the 3 Lb mark after I perfect the quality of the strain.

more space doesn't = bigger yield.

a 600w in a 3x3 is more efficient than a 600w in a 4x4. The lumens is more concentrated in a smaller area thus the plant in the area gets more light.

It does with more plants & lumen. I would agree with you, More Lumen in the smaller area will be more productive. More lumen means that the light can penetrate the shadows of the buds which in turn makes them more dense and weigh more.
