What is Your AVERAGE yeild per watt?!?!?!?

I was just curious as to how much people are averaging during harvest time per watt of light, utilizing different growing techniques such as, soil, hempy bucket, dwc, aero, etc... also wondering what kinda results people are getting using techniques like LST, Scrog, Sog, per watt of light. Also strain grown, and veg and flowering times.

For instance I dont think I have ever seen a single indoor plant with more than, 1 pound(dry weight) on it using a single 1000watt HPS. ( if someone has, please post the link or some pictures:hug: )

Example " lets say someone has 2 plants in soil, they manage to pull 250 grams per plant,(:shock:)off of one 1000watt hps, that particular grower received .5 grams of bud per watt."

thanks for your input, :hug:
also if you post up some amazing number, (i.e. 3 grams per watt) please post some pictures, so I can believe you.
lol
:peace:

no matter how many plants i put in my tent i always seem to get 0.5 gram per watt, with my 400watt hps i've been harvesting 2 times in the range of 190-210 grams, first time 3 plants, second time 4 plants, when my grow space is full, it's full. I'm trying with 6 plants this time, but my guess is i will harvest....yes u can guess if you want to...around 200 grams :)

well typically i hit the .5ish gram a watt ratio also... my growing conditions were not ideal tho... just changed rooms and am 3 weeks into flowering some new girls... it wont be an accurate grow of gr/watt this time because i have multiple plants in pots.. long story... anyways... i typically veg for 4 under 24/7... i usually flower under 12/12... although since this time it was sorta a fucked up grow i ended up doing a 12.5/11.5 light cycle... i seem to be getting really good results this way... the strain is crystale.. 70/30 sativa/indica if i had to guess.... standard grows.. no scrog or sog or anything... i use satellie IV floros... although here soon im going to be investing in 4 - 1000w hps lights for flowering and use the floros just for veg... i have a thread started if you want to look at some pics i have of the girls under the floros tho... anyways... the floros are 420w a piece.. i usually use 3 for flowering and save one to start new vegging/germinating.. since im switching to hydro after this grow im using all 4 to flower.. so im hoping to hit close to the 2 lb mark... but i would usually get are 650-700 grams using the 3....

Are you hydro or soil? how is the reflectiveness of that tent? now when you had 3 plants im assuming you vegged longer to fill it in?

I am going to check out your thread.:joint:

Well, i would say have a look at my current grow :)
I've been using soil every time now, and ofcourse i do try to veg my plants for as long as it takes to fill up the tent, so this time i will need less time for vegging. There are some pictures in my thread from my previous grow, i think i vegged those for about a month. But it was a different strain and more fast growing than this strain. Reflectiveness of the tent is optimal, all white. Temps are between 70-71°F at dark and 79-80°F with lights on, but my humidity levels aren't what they should be, i try to keep trays of water in the tent, as many as i can put in there, but i have no humidity meter so i can't really tell if it does anything.

i don't really keep track. =/
i didn't even weigh my last indoor harvest. filled 3 jars is all i know.

^lol just jars it and dosnt bother to weigh it.

Ive only completed 1 indoor grow and it was 6 total plants 5 in 1 gallon 1 in 7 gallon pots under 400 watt hps and i only got like 100 grams so thats only .25 grams per watt lol but that was a first round in a closet.
I just got a 1000 watt hps and have 6 plants in 7 gallon pots so im hoping to match at least my .25 grams per watt or better to get hopefully 250 grams!

its hard for me to figure out exactly because i run perpetual.
but if i multiply my harvest by the amount of room i have left...
ex: 1 plant harvest that takes up 1/4 of my room ... yield x 4 is what i would estimate to be total..... with my 400w and topping & supercropping, rotating plants .. etc
im at around .84 grams per watt

I get around .8-1.0 under two 600w hps. I got around .6, than when i began using c02 for the first time it changed dramatically

I am in week 6 of veg... long because had to get a hps light. Bought a 1000w with a nice parabolic reflector and will put my bushes into flower tonight. I got to mexican sativas from bag seed for the first grow. they are about 24" tall and bushy. I vegged under a 400w mh that did great. I heard from the guy I bought my light from ,that if you flower first week 28 on and 14 off that will increase yield.What do you guys think. oh yeah, its an aeroponic set up.

Never heard of it, I've heard of 24 for hour dark periods before flowering...not 28 on 14 off though, perhaps I've been out of the loop, I don't know.

never tried it , but it sounds promising

edit* - best time to try is when the plants are good into flowering

won't that kick your plants back to veg? or at least confuse them..but yes, it sounds interesting, i may try that.

I average about 350g per plant (wet weight) using a 400w MH Conv & HPS = approx 2.5 Oz dry
