you can get that very easy if you know how to grow, i have one 600 over 2 plants, 3 months i got a pound, every 2 months with the veg room also. You could put one 600 over one plant and get a pound in 12-16 weeks depending on strain, if you wanna see an awesome plant, check out ''ne1cangrow'' on youtube, hand fed hydro in a cupboard, over a pound, one plant 600 watts 3 1/2 months from seed!!!!!
I believe a lot of numbers are pretty exaggerated... I'm not saying it can't be done but the longer I've been on this site, I see people weighing stalks and wet - calling it good.

I do understand what youre saying but how could you know that for sure? It's not very hard at all with hydro, everyone knows their yields, if they wanna lie, then whatever, but i know that around here when its harvest time and it sells for $120 a quad oz. and theres over $8,000 when its gone, well, you do the math!!!!

I just seen a plant that vegged for 7 weeks (50 days) yield 531 grams jarred, finished in 113 days from seed, one plant 600 watt mh veg, 600 watt hps for flower, one top feed bucket with an aip pump in a closet lined in mylar, this was a BUBBA KUSH plant stood only 3 1/2 feet tall, massive colas, size of a 20 oz. pop bottle. topped and supercropped

Haha... I need to live over there! Yes, hydro is the way to go for yield.

I'm trying to switch over myself... Getting rid of one last soil grow, then it's hydro for me :)

I always go with 3 plants vegged indoors for 8 weeks under t-5's. Plants are about 2 feet high. Then I move them outside for flower. Another 7 -8 weeks til harvest. Total dried yield is over a pound. I put new plants outside every 30 days so I have a perpetual harvest from about May until November. For the last year I've been growing Strawberry Diesel.. I am definitely a KISS grower. I use a simple fertilizer and stay away from all the high priced nutes. The hardest part is maintaining enough plants in veg to stick outside every month. With the right amount of clones, lst and super cropping it works out.

This method works much better for me than trying to grow several trees for one massive harvest late in the year..

Hydro is way easier than people make it sound, ive used it since day, never used soil, ive never went wrong, i got a big resevoir, 2 buckets(pot), an air pump, water pump, 1/2'' tube, 1/4'' tube feed, and any good 3 bottle, micro grow bloom, nutes system, with a correctly monitored PH, all i do is check on the ladies, it feeds itself!!!!!!! my system cost about $75 for all i just menioned, and as you see in my picture avobe, its quite simple and easy!!!!!!

16 plants under 1 light?? really? cause im running 2 600 watt lights and 13 plants and im gonna yield about a pound if that...what am i doing wrong? my plants are in 2 1/2 gallon pots.
it could be strain. ive recently noticed even with the best seeds you can buy from seed banks you may still need to hunt for a good phenom. i am on my second pineapple express fem seed. so far ive notice completely different phenoms. the second phenom has much more yield to it altho the thc and cbd content might not be as high in this one. not sure yet since im still 3 weeks from harvest. im also on my second nothern lights x skunk #1 also. this one has more potential since its the northern lights phenom ive been looking for for the cbd and thc content for pain where as it wont get very big. not a huge yield. if you find the right phenom from the right strain keep it around as long as possible. but before those ive had a plethora of seeds and have givin up on them all becuz they never met my expectations. you just have to find a good strain. also. the bigger the lights the bigger the buds. bring the lights as close as you can without burning or bleaching them. my word of wisdom for the morning. im out time to scrub the junk and get on with my day. good luck. also it took me 5 or 6 years of growing to find my money maker it could take less or more time depending on how bad you want it. each cut i take should be half an oz from 12/12 as soon as it has roots. no veg. also a good tip. if you have a straggler kill it off. your better off taking care of what you have rather than nursing a sick one back to life during flower. i.e. stunted and slowly growing. happy growing dude. hit me up if you have questions. gonna do an update later. you chould check it out.

so im coming up to the end of my harvest, i have 13 plants going and theyre looking great. im running 2 600 watt bulbs. next harvest i plan on running 4 lights. i wood like to downsize plants but yield more. i saw a video of someone yielding 4 pounds off of 4 plants. im using all the right nutrients and soil, and im using reverse osmosis water. will i yield 4 pounds if i run 1 600 watt light above each plant, 4 plants in total and 4 lights. will that work or whats the best way to yield more????any help wood be great. trying to make some money so i can be in my sons life. thanks
it is possible with a scrog and lots of veg time.

also i use nothing but 1000s and if really needed to and i wasnt lazy i could pull a p on each light. but it takes more turn around time. = no dice.

Pick a sativa dominant hybrid like Sugar Punch from Sannie. Grow them outside in the equator. Pretty sure you'll pull more than a pound a plant.

I used the book 'Secrets of the West Coast Masters' by Drew West. Set me straight right away. Avoided the learning curve and wading through post after post. If I dont get a lb from a 600 watt Im pissed. Best yeild was 550grams from a black widow

That seems like a lot of smoke you are wanting at a time 4 pounds really. Can we say drug dealer in the works.
Can we say get the fuck off the forum to you...if I could get 4 pounds a month I would and not all people sell you fucker...if I could get that every 2 months id be supplying all the dispensaries in my area....dont come on a grow forum saying oh your a drug dealer ur on a marijuana forum u forget that...maybe he only crops out 1 time a year...and he wants it to last
