No hatin, give it to me straight!:)

I have 18 grade a plants growing as we speak, seeds from amsterdam and they are growing just fine. By the way its a indoor growth. My question is how do i get 1 to 2 pounds per tree? I am giving them time to grow in the veg stage and i wont flower until feb 1 they have been growing since october and are a nice hieght now. I use normal swirl lights (whatever they are called) lol and they are 150 watt per light i have a few of them.

Your probably referring to CFL's or florescents. So, if thats the case then your going to need lights covering each light. And even with that your going to have a very hard time hitting that mark.

Ok ok, so what do i need to do to reach my mark,bc i have time

HID lights. Lots.

You need a lot more than a few 150watt whatevers to handle 18 :shock: grade A girls. Tall order to get pounds per tree indoors event with HID's. Hope you end up with some Grade a+ stuff!

...and how does that work, "No haten, give it to me straight"? which is it?

haha yeah i grow with cfls and i can tell u there no way u can get that much off of a plant u could probly end up with a pound or a little over two if u scrog
 
ok cool and I wrote that bc, I dont want anyone hating saying forget about it and all that other bs just tell me what i need to do bc i have nothing but time on my side.
 
Ok so basically I need to increase stronger light, next question wont the police or the light company see that a residential area(house) is using that much electricity?

I'm being realistic, keep reading as people start replying. If you have nothing but time on your hands, you need to start reading this awesome forum with good people willing to help, but when you ask questions like, "how do I get 2 lbs off a plant, dude"? it makes it hard. I say this with all due respect. Do what you want just saying... Good luck.

you´d need a shitload of room, for each plant. (at least 4x4)

and 7 foot ceilings if you dont know how to make a flat bush.

probably 1-2000w hps for each plant. (plus the fans and whatnot for each light as mentioned)

and a veg time of 2 month plus.


a beginner doing this? ...id say even if you had some technical know how and plant skills, id still call you a "very optimistic person"

and if you have to ask, probably a "really really optimistic person"

and good luck with that :)

I'll tell you exactly what you will need to grow 2lbs a plant. You will need lots of veg time and THE SUN! You maybe should try to shoot for something a little more realistic such as getting a 600 watt or 1000 watt HID and hope for a pound, but expect more like a half pound. You are obviously new and should really just worry about growing something worth smoking and then work on your yield.
 
Better Equipment is the key to growing more pot, So Yielding??? what does that do, I just want to grow big ass p[lants with alot of bud and right now they are pretty tall!
