12 plants under a 1000 watt light what should i yield??

[Justcallmedude]

I think I count twelve ladies in there?

Anyway, would it be out of the qu-es-t-tion-un-N(yeah 6 syllabols, Dr. Coxx {scrubs}) for this this kid to flower his 12 plants using only 1000w, no light mover, no side lighting and achieve 1+ grams per plant; under ideal conditions?

hahahahaha 8 ladies.... only 6 in the picture you forgot to add the MOST crutial factor (his first grow).... If you are talking about wet grams... Id prob. say yes its possible, if he learns learns learns... My first grow I yielded 400 + wet grams with just 2 plants and 400 watts hps.. so its def. possible all im saying is... Read. Learn. Understand your plants needs..

 

[JN811]

Id honestly tell any grower for there first grow.. expect about an oz per plant.. if you get more BE HAPPY!!

 

[irishstaff]

ive grew 14 plants in a space of 36 sq feet which is 6x6 , Who the fuck are you to say i havnt grew 14 plants under a 1000w lamp .And jn811 or what ever your tag is , I think most people use veg nutes at the start of flowering . How can you say expect a oz a plant , His plants may end up being 5-6 feet tall .
Would YOU be happy growing plants that tall and only getting a oz ?????????????? Think not

 

[GreenDragon77]

I got a1/2 oz a plant from my first grow but it was bag seed, cfls, and MG soil so an oz a plant first grow sounds about right.

lol dude calm down.. most ppl prob. do use veg nutes during early flowering.. but if you do research they should be used all throughout flowering.. Not too much, but the old wives tale that veg nutes are bad late in flowering is just that, a wives tale.. Keep you plants green is all im saying.. and def. buy good nutes. Dont use MG or any other type of chemical nutes. They are basically salts and can fuck ur plants up quick..

 

[irishstaff]

Jn im not using MG . All i use is bio bizz bloom and black strap molasses and i can get 2 - 2.5 oz of a 3 ft plant .
I dont want to get into a slagging match with no one but all anyone can give is advice and its upto the indivigual ,( sorry for spelling mistakes ) to make there own mind up as you know yourself that when your a new grower its a lot of different opinions and its proberly too much for him to take in at the min , and anyway what ever he does he will always be tinkering with his plants and prob causing more problems as newbies generally do , . When i first started growing i was never away from my grow area . Took about 7 oz from first grow with 2 , 250w hps but then again i chopped them down on week 5-6 . I had 9 plants on my first grow , but now i only do 6 at a time due to limited space now weve moved to a smaller house

 

[Justcallmedude]

This is the sort of thing that needs to happen more in fourms. People tossing around idea's not their dicks. Unless you are oppossed to growing the most bud, with the most potencey and most effeicent way possible your cool with me.

did i ever tell you dudes I saw a UFO once? happy growing~~~ Dude

 

[smoke3Ls]

yes but make sure the cfl's are 2700k for flowering

thanks for the advice fellow tokers

Okay, let me ask an educated question for smokels; 'When' I flower 6-8 plants in a 4x4 space under optimum conditions, (which I am sure I don't know what they are) what kind of yeild could be expected per watt in comparison to the .5g per watt with 12 plants?

Everyone seems to be forgetting one thing with respect to quantity and plants and yield.

MORE PLANTS = shorter veg time = same yield
LESS PLANTS = longer veg time = same yield

If you grow 4 plants under a 1kW lamp or 16 or 32 it doesnt matter. You simply have to make sure the top of the 16sqft canopy is all green. If you have light that goes to the floor, you are losing your yield.

The magical "grams per watt" is really an indicator that you have everything dialed in properly with respect to the environment, lighting, nutrients, temperatures, humidity, plant vigor, etc etc etc....

Under a 1000 watt lamp you should be capable of getting approximately 2 Lbs every harvest, which translates to about 900 grams give or take.

If you arent, you either have growing condition issues, or a weaker strain. That's it.

Ya she's right listen to her...LOL She is obviously the smartest person on this site... My advice is only from years of growing and I can see that idiot knows nothing..... I have several friends that grow for their own med stores here in so cal and everyone of them grows 6-8 plants under their 1000w lights... These people do it for a living and that is how they taught me...They are all happy if they can produce over .5 per watt...If I were you I would READ AND RESEARCH and do not listen to the advice of the moron research kitty... You need to have 1 sq foot of space for each plant for best results... Do what you want....Peace

Then you *and* your medicinal growers need a good educator. The day I pull 16oz or less from a 1kW lamp is the day I quit growing.

BTW -- That's for the +rep with the comment "You are a fucking idiot.....". I'm glad you gave me a + when you really thing I'm a turd. It's OK -- just keep an eye on my grow journal and you'll see it turn 2 Lbs per light.

lol this thread is a waste of time... all of you are giving poor advice. To start, he may get one gram, he may get 1000. His growing experience is 0. You guys who are all telling him this nonsence are silly. I have 800 watts hps/mh with 8 plants. 10 plants would be my limit for 1000. 100 watts per plant rule of thumb.... stop telling this kid all sorts of fallacies. Its his first grow.. EVERYONE has problems there first grow..

Ok, so tell us where all of us are wrong? Tell us what are these fallacies that we've conjured up? Not looking for drama, but please, give advice not "yall suck" posts.

4 x4 would be 16 wouldn't it?

Its 16sqft yes, but again, it isnt about how many plants as much as ensuring your canopy is green.

Good luck!

if you look ive gave PLENTY of advice...

 

[streetlegal]

i wanna add for noobs coming across this..U can grow as many plants under a 1000watt as u can fit in a 4x4 (5x5 even) area,.. not 8-16-10 woteva, as many as u can/want

 

[mygirls]

Did EITHER of you read his post? He vegged for 50 days. Its obvious that they will be over a foot tall, mygirls, and biggun your advice is just stupid. You tell him that 12 plants is too many? Why? Since he's vegging for 50 days, he'll have gigantic plants for sure. In fact, 50 day veg time is probably 2x too long.

But regardless, 12 plants is not too many for a single 1kW lamp, it's more than YOUR PREFERENCE.

And dont be a prick and insult the kid with 0.5g/watt. Any idiot with a light can get that.

So, original poster, here's the ACTUAL ANSWER to your question. Your yield from a single 1000w lamp is generally about 2 Lbs per harvest. Sometimes lower, 1.5 Lbs or sometimes higher, 2.25Lbs max for me. Each strain yields differently.

It isnt about how many plants you have under a light, its about making sure the top canopy of plants is non stop green for the entire square. That's it!

I wish I could -rep people for some of their stupid advice they post just for trying to get +rep wrongly.

hey litle foo foo kitty
all i have to say is that you have no idea what the hell your talking about..
espishaly your last post, more plant less veg time and less plants more veg time hahahahahahah ya right..

Why does this not make sense?

If you have more plants under one light (say 30 for conversation sake), then you veg them LESS because they fill the canopy faster.

If you have less plants under one light (say 4 for this example), then you veg them LONGER because they have to get bigger to fill the canopy space.

You're welcome for explaining this to you, despite you acting like an asshat to me. Good luck!

and you still don't.

 

[researchkitty]

and you still don't.

Tell me why I am wrong then -- the more you post nothing and the more I post scientific facts the more you look like you've never even smoked weed before let alone grow it.

So, if your going to dispute something, DISPUTE it! Dont just sit there being a whiny little bitch and increasing your post count. =P

ima have to side with kitty. a longer veg time will increase your yield than if you use a 4 week veg time instead of an 8 week. you will get much more yield because your plant is bigger and has much more foliage= more energy to make more buds and bigger buds increasing your yield. that is why those 8-10 foot monster outdoor plants yield several pounds. not because they are outside, but because they veg for like 2-3 months before flowering. and when they are put out they are usually already a foot tall or so. if you veg 8 plants for 8 weeks your will get way more yield than vegging 16 plants for 4 weeks. denying this fact is just being ignorant and shows you dont understand how plant biology, anatomy, and physiology works.

[blunters]

a 1000w light is good for a 4x4 space and you should only have 1 plant per square foot which is 8 max...

If every plant needs 1 sq foot and you have a 4x4 grow room you can fit 16 plants ... as 4x4 = 16 ... not 8

so your say that the plant i veged for 8 weeks that yielde over 412 grams of dried buds, or that if i would have veged it for 4 weeks would of yielded more. to each there own .. happy growing..

 

[ElectricPineapple]

no you have it reversed. you would have less of a yield than if you vegged for 8 weeks.

8 weeks veg = more yield

4 weeks veg = less yield
