Can a 400watt HPS produce 3+ ounces?

Chronic looks intriguing. I'd really like to get my hands on some White Russian seeds. The strain seems promising.

After growing White Widow for 5 years I tried White Russian about a year and a half ago. It's alright, but of the 2 I think the WW is better. I'm thinking about trying Jack Herer or Hog next.

I have to call bullshit on that buddy! I've seen a grow were someone yielded one pound with a 400 watt.
Maybe if your running a few 1000 watters you would get 3 pounds. There is absolutely now way you are getting those kind of yields, no way!
My flowering room is 12 x 12. There are 7 400w HPS lights in it. Each light is over 2, 2 x 4 trays that are set up to hold 6 netpots in an E & F configuration. The trays, and thuse, the lights are hung right next to each other, so I suppose it's safe to say each tray gets more than one light's worth of illumination, BUT
The yields I quoted are accurate. although the AVERAGE is closer to 40 ounces per 12 plants. My best was 48 Ounces from a 2 tray (12 plants) batch.

I got sick a year and a half ago and shut down the grow, but am about to put the first batch of new clones in the flowering room in a SCROG setup. I can post pics of the room itself right now, but there are no live plants in it... They're all still in the cloning room with Mama for the next 2 days. (White Widow from A-Dam)

Oh, BTW... I keep the CO2 at 1500 PPM with a NG generator.

None of this is Bullshit. Believe what you want.

Had to throw my 2 cents in, my grow is 4'X5'X8ft ceiling. I can put 19, 3 gal buckets, of course, I dont get 19 females, usaually average 12 fem. 1 light with growlux bulb. Veg one month, flower 2 months. I grow a strain I crossed WW with NL. Average yield about 8 oz.Cool thread, How about a 400 watt club? Keep On Growin
