Depends on your plants. This is 2 lbs (dry) in a 4x4 tent... I only use one LED light

Common man?!!!! You want to see a real 2 lb harvest. Here it is. Both tables got like 35 oz each. One table had 16x5 gallon. Next table 9x10 gallon. You little baby 4x4 ain’t even close!!!! Or you just don’t dry your product. ??DBF05ADF-2AD5-46FC-8BD3-76920C4C8E20.jpeg127C105C-D18F-4BCC-AB9B-9F89F531B8AE.jpeg

Yeh, that looks WAY more realistic. It's funny how big the picture makes the space look. It looks like you have this HUGE giant warehouse.. hehehe

Old racket ball course. Lol. Seems to work well. The 20 ft ceilings are nice

Awwww, so lucky!!! I am stuck growing in a 7ft basement. I don't even have to adjust my light normally. I end up tying the top branches down, and the bottom branches up to try and get the most out of the bottom branches that I can just to pad the weight a little bit, and gives my wife some joint material to smoke as she likes to do.

These guys weigh their weed after 5 days of drying and post their numbers. Let’s see those numbers a month after harvest. Bets it’s half of their original numbers.

If you want all that product in the space go sog. And don't be growing flipping 2ft tall plants. Flip on clones that are only 1-2" tall.

I suspected such, but, also don't wish to piss on anyone's parade. I trim everything at harvest, weigh it wet to see about where I will end up, knowing that 2/3rds is water weight, and once the stem is able to cleanly snap off, it's dry and I weigh it.

This is also why I don't trust growing with LED's because I see a lot of folks claiming huge weights that I know don't weigh that much. I've been doing this a long time and my wife depends on me not fucking it up by switching things that will give us a subpar harvest.

Yeah led liars get me every time. I think I’ll go get the lights from the barn out back because these things suck.

oh and that 1 bud was a pound dry

This is the problem, some exaggerate, and some do not. I am a simple minded type, I go with what works and I am used to since the late 80's. Someday, I might buy a new Harley too.... But, until then, I like my old 1969 Sportster.

Ohh and by the way??? IF you look at the picture of my avatar, if those two plants didn't hermie, I'm pretty sure they would have given me 4 foot long kolas weighing 2lbs each... ;)

The other thing that's funny is that those two plants, are the same variety as the one full of buds in the previous picture I took.

53years old, started smoking when I was 6, in 1976, grew my first plant in 1982 when I was 12, bred my first plants when I was 38, have kept my wife and I supplied since 2005.

So, yeh, but, I wasn't in Vietnam.... ;)

One thing that's funny? I've never actually grown outdoors, except those two plants you see. LOL! All this time.......

I would never call myself a "master garderner", I am only someone that grows weed and kept myself supplied. I have only grown the way I grow, nothing larger as I didn't want to go to prison for decades and lose everything, getting busted.

Anything large scale would take considerable more effort and large scale growing knowledge to be successful I would imagine. Pretty sure that just about anyone can grow one or two plants successfully once shown.

I'm growing the same Black Banana Cookies under LED that I was growing under hps only 2 months ago and I'm getting almost double the weight. 50% increase minimum with more frost and more smells.

I was averaging 35 grams per plant under hps and I got 60 grams average per plant under my new LED.

The lights will pay for themselves in 2 months with the extra weight.

NO, I am not saving $$ on electric or cooling. Same watts being used in total so no savings.
