So a buddy of mine just started his grow and he's running 5 1000w phantom de, 3 ton ac unit, co2, an an exhaust. 40 plants and he's expecting 10lbs.. dry does that sound accurate.. 10x20 room.. running nutes,and topping.

If he does well. It's not unreasonable but it's also doing well.

I've pulled just over 3 oz / plant using "blurples" and LST. 4 oz per is very doable with 1000 W Double End HPS bulbs.

Thats 4oz a plant dried. I am assuming with 40 plants and only 200 square feet he's doing a SOG in smaller pots. I guess its possible but everything would have to be picture perfect and dialed in. I know @Renfro does 45lbs with 1200 square feet and 12 plants but his shit is dialed in. If you take Renfro's room and do some math, you know he gets 7.5lbs per 200 square feet and his shit is dialed in. So 10lbs from 200 square feet I dunno, seems tough but two different growing styles. I guess also strain is a factor if it's a heavy yielder or not. I'd say hes looking at closer to 7lbs. But that's my guess based on math and completely a guess.

If I had 2400w led and 10 plants in a 64sqft what type of yield would I expect with scrog

No one can tell you that brother. 2400 w led is a bullshit statement first of all. Whats the true watts from the wall? If you fell into the scam of this light: https://www.amazon.com/Programmable-Control-Spectrum-Hydroponics-Greenhouse/dp/B076V664S5/ref=sr_1_2_sspa?keywords=2400w+led&qid=1554333342&s=gateway&sr=8-2-spons&psc=1
which claims 2400w but actually is 205w from the wall you would be super lucky to even end up with 4-5oz in that space.

IF and thats a BIG IF you can grow really well and have good lights not that 2400w trash and you manage to yield .6oz a squarefoot thats 38.4 oz = 2.4lbs. But A LOT of factors come into play. If your true watts from the wall is 550w and you manage to pull off 1g per watt your looking at 19.6oz = 1.2lbs. It's all a guessing game. All based on how much light and grower talent. Good luck.

I'll be using 4 of these timber redwoods

@Jefferson1977 is hitting big numbers under 1.2k true watts of hlg quantum boards

He's using clones, very little to no veg time and 4x8 flood table , approx 40ish clones

10 plants grown like @Renfro will yield huge, but he's using 5x5 trellis for each plant and is growing trees. He's using much more than 64sq feet

Too many variables to estimate yield

I just yielded 14.5 ozs in a 4x4 tent growing 4 plants under a 600w hps light.

It all depends on how you plan to grow and obv strain plays a big role too.

I've been following renfro I'd like to mimic that set up just on a smaller scale. I want to grow purple haze from seed bc that was my first love when I started smoking. And probably use some cookie clones from my buddy after that. I guess I just have to take the plunge and just start growing and see..

I have a 10x15 space to use so I have many options on set up but my first grow in this space and want to have a good yield to last me till I start my second.

Think it all depends on what kind of LED too...2400 true watts or is that like Amazon LED watts...that is really important. Some light on Amazon says 1500watts LED but it actually draws 150w type thing, lol...Quantum Boards/Samsung LEDs are amazing, haven't tried anything else.

Ya I mean he's growing 12 plants, using 2 rooms and 19000+ watts in a completely dialed in environment , most would love to mimick his grows lol

No easy feat tho

Best of luck

I sent a screenshot of the specs on a previous post. 600 true watts and I'm getting 4
