I have a hard time with this experience stigma people throw around like bad judgement and mistakes are something to be proud of. If a strain claims to yeild a certain amount that is what I base my judgement on. And for someone to flat out say you can't grow a lb from one plant is ignorant. Please read my first post on all the equipment I have and the time I plan on growing. I appreciate all of you guy's, I really do but If you don't put yourself In my shoes you will never understand. Please re-read the first post and If I need extra lights just tell me.experienced growers get around .5 to .75 grams per watt. You really need to read up on the grow FAQ, because it's obvious you have no idea what you're doing!! I agree with James Bond, you ask for advice but then act like you know more than everyone, it's pretty obnoxious.

Thanks,
Im not sure that will be enough light... 40 is a ton of plants. Check out Mister420Green's grow.We'll I could add another 2-1000 watt hid and give the plants 10,700 lumens instead of 5,350 per square inch. Which is more light than the sun gives. I bet this would really yield me close to 2lb's per plant!
But I think this is too much light for only 40 plants.
Well this post is pretty much irrelevant now, I started this post before the two previouse were posted, oh well.Has anyone ever harvested 1.5lb's per plant? I'm going to veg my plant's for 3 month's then flower for another 2. I'm quite sure I can harvest 1.5lb's per plant. I'm growing 40 plant's using 2-1000 watt hid/mh(reverable) lights, mylar, temp/humidity/co2 controller, fox farm soil and nutrients, fan ect... The marijuana seeds im using are from a seedbank and each strain yield between 600-850 m2. Now whats the big deal? With this set up and time length how could you not yeild 1.5lb's?
the sun gives off over 100,000 lumens.....5350 lumens per square inch with mylar isn't enough? The sun gives off 10,000 lumens but not all the sunlight reaches the plant.
You do understand the yeilds listed for the strains are grown by pros who have the strains dialed in. You have absolutely no growing experience and that's the biggest factor you are leaving out!I have a hard time with this experience stigma people throw around like bad judgement and mistakes are something to be proud of.

4-1000 watt hid's would give 40 plant's more light than the outside sun and for longer periods of time. I already have a temp/humidifier/co2 controller. I will put up mylar to reflect the light(my light hoods also have a reflector). The soil and nutrients I'm using are fox farm. Now if I put these same 40 plant's outside in a open field where the sunlight could get them for 5 month's Id harvest over 40 pounds; I'd also get robbed or go to jail. So common sense tell's me that being inside where I can control the environment (no stress) plus add more light than the outside, more co2, nutrients ect... common sense tell's you that you'd harvest more.
I can be wrong but logic is a bitch!
Your plants will only receive 10,000 of this per day. Either morning light or afternoon light.the sun gives off over 100,000 lumens.....
your not graet with numbers buddie

Sunlight from 8am to 1pm. Depends on where your plants are located North or South.please explain.

you don't base yields off of plant #'s. you base yields off of canopy size and light coverage. HID lighting loses lumens as you move away from the bulb. the light at 1 foot is much brighter than the light at 5 feet.So no matter how many plants I have a 1000 watt hid will only give me a pound? So If I grow 40 plants with 4-1000 watt hid I will only harvest 4 pounds? This defeats the whole purpose of growing. I'm not into small potatoes.
