25lb a year - 4sq metres - IS it possible?

Is it possible to get 25lb (12kg) dry weight a year? That's what al'b'fuct said he got but is it actually possible? Using 2 1000W lamps, ebb and flood system that uses rockwool cubes put in clay pellets, SoG, taking clones from mothers (mothers not in the 4sq meters) and stuffing about 20plants in per square meter? So 80 plants harvested every 2 months, or 20 plants harvested every two weeks?

If you are a good grower, capable of getting 1 gram per watt, you can expect about 4 pounds per harvest. Get 6 harvests in, and your right at about 25 pounds. Or, get 10-12 smaller harvests, growing perpetual, and do the same.

It's possible to get one endless supply off of one plant and one harvest....but nobody wants to give up their secrets.

I think your math is off, doesn't he use more than one 4x4 growing area?
Its way off he has 4 stationed which are 2x4 and that nots includeing his clone box and mother station. Dont know where the hell he got that his whole set up is 4x4 :/ I Run an identical set up to Al B. Fuct and yes it is very possible 22-27 plants per tray bout 1.3-2.5zip per plant every 2-3 weeks do the math :)

"I have not had to use imperial figures in many years. When I wrote this post, I estimated the size of the flood trays as 4'x4'. I estimated WRRRONG! They are actually 900x900mm or about 35.4" square. "

His trays are 900mmx900mm, lets round this up to 1sq meter. He has 4 of these 1sq metre trays which means he has 4 square metres? And two 1000W lamps over 2sq metres each? Like I said, I didn't count the mothers or clones in the 4 metres.

So (NOT counting mothers/clones), he is growing in 4 square metres?

He even says this "Figure that the entire grow op fits in a cramped and tiny 7' tall x 8' wide x 9' long space. High weed density growing. :smile:"

Which is 2.4 x 2.7 = 6.48 As his mothers and Clones take about 2.5 metres, I was right all along? Or did you missunderstand me?
