Whats This Mean?`

[Krej]

What do they mean when refering to M2. Like Indoor Yield 350-400grams/m2?

Thanks for reading

Meter squared in a sea of green. Pretty sure. It's the yield.

 

[Krej]

Oh wow that makes sense now. i thought it was per plant 300 grams but thatnks. M2 kinda makes the yield that much more dissapointing

 

[SmokerE]

I'm of the firm belief that some of that info is hype from the breeders though. Expect less, hope for more.

a square meter isn't that big man- even at 300g ( which is not the highest yielding plant ) you are talking 1/2-3/4 of a pound of bud from a more or less closet sized grow...just wait till you find out that as a new grower you will be lucky to get half of that. Heh .

Or anything at all......ahhh the joys of growing.

So let me set up some variables. Im actually about to through everything i have into this. Lets say my loan comes through for 15k. I buy 6 1000watt lamps, 3 metal halide, 3 hps. (1k digital ballasts aswell) 1 CLF for mother and rooting my clones. Ebb and Flow 4x4 tables with 18 plants. 3 tables veg, 3 tables bud. Now as far as Nuets im not sure whats the best. I guess it would also matter what strain. Im thinking Big Bud or anything that yields huge. You see there are about a dozen colleges near me. And at most of them all u can get in KB for about 350 and oz. Money to be Made? i think so. With the rest of the gear Fans, Filters, co2 Burner keeping about 850-930ppm. Ive calculated the power usage and its about 2 times the national average of 900-1400kw per month. (actaully about 3500kw a month) <--- with this in mind im getting a Gas Generator. should run about a grand but meh, its worth not getting caught. Running the generator 10 hours a day will cut my bill in half back to what it should be. (the house will be gutted as far as appliances no extra power i cant afford) Oh and the generator has a 5 gallon tank, and should cost about 16 bucks a day in gas. With a constant cycle of crop rotations i hope to harvest once a month off the 3 4v4 tables in flowering stage. Ok well thats about about it. What kind of yields would you think i might come up with? Ive heard 2lbs per lite on urban grower but those are for big potted plants. And as far as SOG goes, i might be able to work somthing like that. Ive hear from others grams/watt i cant recall the actual ratio. My moms bf has a double masters, one in hort and the other i think is buis but he paid for his college with weed. He told me he was cycling crops and actually getting about 8 oz per week! thats redic. Oh and one last set up i heard of was the once i plan on attempting to recreate. 18 plants per 4v4 and he claimed to get 12-24oz per plant! Wow that seems unreal. But when money is no option can this be acheived? Thanks for Reading!

Unless your in a place where it is legal, I would put aside money for a lawyer and court fines too.

 

[Krej]

That money comes after Harvest number one.

 

[shamegame]

Well, money DOES help, but when you get right down to it, your grow is only as good as it's caretaker.The more experience, the more quality,quantity,and consistancy you will get. If an inexperienced grower decides to go straight to a huge commercial grow, he/she is taking a very large risk. Posting about a large commercial grow is also not a good idea.

Peace

18 plants in a 4x4 is 1-2 ounces each plant... whoever said they got 12-24 ounces each was blowing shit out of their ass. Sure they didn't say 12-24 ounces per 4x4? that's most likely.

Start smaller, earn your justification to go big.
Your idea has too much vegitative light, your flowering plants will be 3 times the size of your veg plants, get it?
Go with 3 400w MH for veg.
If you did decide to go big now, ditch the generator and recalculate your op to stay within a comfortable range of power consumption. If you pull it off, you can rent an apartment with your $16/day of petrol.
