Is it possible to get 2-3 lbs from a 4x4

Thanks for the props @420 Garden!... In my experience, less is more. I have pulled 2.47 lbs in a 4x8 with 1 single plant in a 7 gallon pot, but!... it did take 3 months veg, and almost 4 months flower. This was just an experiment I had done last year. The Mother tent was going to be vacant for a while, so I thought I'd give it a go. I'd like to try this again with 2 plants and maybe a little shorter veg. I topped 4 times, and just super cropped and trained the shit out of her. This was about a month before chop.....

Holy.F I just see the video that’s a winner well done

Dam 2.4 with 1 plant I don’t really have time like that as I’m in the uk winter can get really expensive.
What would u think I can yield with a 5-6 week veg (clone) 5gallons pots and 2 600w hps in a 8x4 I’m struggling to pick if I should put 10 or 8 in the 8x4
A lot of it is going to be pheno dependent... I knew this pheno well, as I have been growing it for about 4 years. She's always been a good yielder. But... I would not do any less than 8 weeks veg if you're looking for max yield. I personally wouldn't put more than 4 in a 4x8..... which is what Im doing right now.

I’m using coco and it’s chilled cherries but I’m gunna run 9 in a 4x4
You can run 2, 9 or 100 plant if your canopy is full, then your canopy is full. Yield is mostly strain dependent at that point. Ive never heard of that strain I hope you get ten pounds, hell you just never know could find the next elephant bud pheno and pack that tent like a sardine can :bigjoint:

That's the one that I won the t shirt from guessing the final weight. One of my all time favorite grows to follow. One of these days @DoubleAtotheRON is going to bump his head and forget that he doesn't let that cut out and I'm going to pounce on it lol.

Thing is thats really not great yield for 7 months invested I can get 2 runs in 7 months 5lbs yield each run 4x8 1200 watts led.

Not with a 600w hps, but even dialed in with leds and co2 you’re really unlikely to yield like that. Under led it’s not to hard to a lb and a half in that space though

It did draw me to the conclusion that the longer you veg, the longer it takes to flower. I just kinda figured the flower time would be about the same, but proved not to be the case.
It proves to me that the grower to approach a run such a that. We'll say for the sake of argument 4 plants in a 4 x 8.

A) better be able to diagnose issues on the fly.
B) know exactly what genetics and pheno to work with.
C) must have the space 100% dialed in
D) have a lil bit of luck from the Grow God's.
I'm not at that point yet but man I'm peddling as fast as I can. I owe a lot to some folks here on RIU, for they have shared their knowledge to get me at the point I'm at now. Thanks to all who care. Peace out and happy growing!
