I mean but @thelast1 seems to be able to achive this with 1 k only..

If you are somewhat intelligent and have the education it isn't that difficult to achieve.

1kw of efficient led can easily net a competent grower 2+ g/w (stupid metric) or more appropriately, 1kg/1m2 over a 12 week grow cycle.

By going super efficient and using vertical lighting techniques it is possible to double that.

Lol...lets see ya do it smarty pants.

The best growers here would do well to average 1.5 - 2.0 gpw with their best yielders/genetics on a consistent basis and latest tech. Talking about 2 gpw with 1000's is blowing shit up your ass and everyone else's here. Anyone saying that would be anywhere near the norm has no growing experience. Theory is great, just not in real life. In real life shit happens and that needs to be allowed for in your costs so even if you think you can hit 2 gpw, 1.5 should be used to calculate your costs.

So lets look at reality (numbers) and see what 1000w can pull in real life with a couple of techs and using somewhat realistic w/sq./ft. coverage for each tech. We'll work it backwards so we end up with a footprint required to yield 3 lbs from 1000w.

1.5 gpw at 50w/sq./ft. (hps) or 30w/sq./ft. (LED) plays out as follows:

50w/sq. ft. hps:
1000w / 50w./sq./ft. = 20 sq. ft.
4.5' x 4.5' = 20 sq. ft.
1000w @ 1.5 gpw = 1500g = ~3 lbs. from 1000w in a 4.5 x 4.5' footprint (??)

30w./sq./ft. LED:
1000w / 30w/sq./ft. = 30 sq. ft.
4' x 7.5' = 30 sq. ft.
1000w @ 1.5 gpq = 1500g = ~3 lbs. from 1000w in a 4 x 7.5' footprint (doable)

My best yielders could hit the 2nd (LED) scenario but I don't give a f*k who you are and how much experience you have, pulling 3 lbs. + from a 4.5 x 4.5' footprint regardless of what lighting you're using is bull-shit. Calling it here. Move those numbers around as much as you want, it's still bull-shit.

Ya right! 2000g off 1kw of led? That's 4.4lbs off 1kw. Your funny.

The equation is simple, its not a question that the 1k can produce 1-2gwp at all.

The question is how are you going to spread 25 plants in min 3 gallon pots with 1k / one light only. You both evade the simple question..

I mean come on somewhat intelligent would be able to comprehend a question and not doge it right; but meh what do I know...

25 plants per 1000w........it can be done, but not optimal. Too close for my comfort. Things can go sideways real fast.

Who said anything about 1 light only? The only requirement given was 1kw of power. 40 Vero 29c run at 20w each plus fans and drivers loss. Easy peasey, even a novice can do it.

A picture says a thousand words.....let's see your setup? What are the par vaue of a 20w led? Those would need to be touching the canopy to be effective. Next to zero penetration, maybe good for 6" tall plant, maybe!

How many of these equal 4lbs?

Nice pic. A friend of mine had something similar to a volksgarden that he would grow in. It was a different brand but if you google "Volksgarden" it looked like that. It has a cool tube in the middle with a 1000W HPS on each end. It was a cool set up. It had a large drum that spun around the lights 1turn/hour. Once a day the pumps would come on and fill the flood tray. There were 28 rows of 10 plants in 4" rockwool in each row. Each row took their turn soaking up nutes. After the drum made a whole turn all the plants were watered for the day. The pump would shut off and drum would continue circling. He would yield around 3 Elbows every harvest. The plants looked just like the plants in your pic except they were on a big contraption that circled then around the lights. It was sketchy cuz he didn't bother with a carbon filter and his house was beside a school. It was a small town, he was sick and didn't care I helped him harvest a few times until his cancer got worse and he was unable to continue growing.

The right plant in a SOG can be the cats ass.
DId it for 30 plus years until I got lazy and cheap lol(:

ps... I killed my cancer ! ;)
Awesome dude. My younger cousin got lymphoma at 21. He had legions in every organ of His body. His dad bought a 2oz jar of honey oil for him from some hells Angels. Every day he boiled a cup of water and stirred in a table spoon of oil. He was barely ever awake for a few months but was in remission in less than 7 months. Doctors were baffled and couldn't figure out how his cell counts kept getting better and better.:sleep::weed::sleep::weed:

I lost count of how many pounds of oil I've eaten over the years
Ill never stop ingesting..switching strains up and dosing as well....
Have a great GP who backs what I do.
its always great to hear about others!....more and more are talking about it now.
