Grams per watt

[DaFreak]

I don’t often call bullshit, but on this I do. Don’t care what your strain is, you’re not going to pull 6 pounds from 1000 watts hps with a normal veg time.

 

[rustyshaclkferd]

Exactly. Which is exactly why i know youre full of it.
There is no strain that yields like that because if there was i would be growing it, as would everybody else.

If you say so.

No one said. Normal veg time. It takes time for the plant to biuld up enough growth hormones to push that hard.

 

[kmog33]

You didnt answer the question.
1000w HPS x 3 grams per watt = 3000 grams, which = 6 pounds+.

So... youre saying that 6 pounds on one 1000w HPS is doable.

Ive grown for 10 years with HPS and LED and i have never even heard anyone say something like that, never mind say it isnt hard.

It is absolutely doable, just not in a 5x5
Extra veg time is the same as less efficient light in flower more or less. It doesn’t matter if you’re saving money on electricity per unit but have to run them 3x as long for the same result.

veg time is one of the largest factors for yield for plants individually, but your space is your space and if you fill it up with one or a thousand plants, it’s going to fit the same amount of bud if it’s maxed.

I stopped caring about gpw a long time ago because I realized I’d rather be less efficient, stack more light in, and pull more weight. My goal has never been to grow less weed Or to save money on my grow because generally the more money I put into my grow, the more weed I have every harvest.

it’s a shitty metric anyway because If you’re using your space optimally, space is what becomes the issue. In all of my current flowering spaces, I’m not light limited, I’m carb and space limited. For reference, the corners of my canopy get over 900umole the tallest plants are about 1200 regardless of their location in the room.

So not confused. Just making sure your talk was complete shit.

It’s called blue dream and it’s shit....people grew it for a while before realizing it was shit. Big bud probably would yield up there too.

Bullshit.
Extra veg time? Phhh...
You can veg as long as you want... end up with a plants so big you cant cover it with a 1000w or 3x 600w.

Nope.
Done em both. Yield nice.
But not 3gr per watt nice.

I think you need to reread the comment so you can separate the two thoughts there. If you stick a 1k de up in the middle of a 10x10 foot room with ceiling high enough to get coverage and flower out a plant that takes up the space I bet you’d pull more than 6#. It’s be larfy shit, but you could do it. Lol

the next thought....

Now tell me where you got confused

3gpw is a lot. Not impossible. But you’re not going to be using your light coverage optimally for sure due to Space restrictions.

Maybe he is reveging and going again

Let's see a picture of 3g/watt plants under a 1000W light.

Impropper vegging.... vegging is not waiting to bloom its training...your waste of that time isnt everyones

 

[kmog33]

You also need to understand that using multiple lights drastically affects light intensity and coverage. Hence commercial grow rooms. So you’ll be able to pull 2gpw easier using 2 1k de units than just 1. The more you add Th e easier it gets.

5x5 space with 6 in cubes is 100 plants under a 1k with a 8 week veg you only need 60 grams a plant, 5 ft of head room

Now stfu and feed your plants

 

[kmog33]

Which is why once you’re not growing with one light you’ll start looking a gp/sq ft .

DE HPS with a good light foot print willndo the same

Doesnt matter... sq footage comes into play too.
Ever see a guy do 4 lbs in an 8x4 space?
Its tight and dense. Tough getting light penetration even with 2x 1000w.
So 6lbs... 9x5 minimum. A 1000w light aint gonna do it. Even 3x 600 or 2x 1000 just isnt enough.

If it was guys would be doing it and posting pics. And yet i have never even seen 1 guy make the claim, until now

4# in a 4x8 is sort of a good bar. But not crowded as far as it goes. 2.5-3 with really dense flowering strains, is pretty much maxing out a 4x4 space in a 4x8. Again, it’s easier to pull better gpw in a 4x8 than 4x4 due to the multiple lights sources increasing light intensity over a larger space with the lights higher up so the heat at the canopy is also lower.

I’m actually referring specifically to de because of my personal experience. I always had se 1ks in 20+ light rooms pretty close to the plants. I honestly love the de height requirement as I hate moving lights.

Really? Lol
Wow...
