2 1000w super hortilux hps bulb in a 4ft long x 8ft wide x 6ft.7in tall Tent with 10 plants 5 under each hps hood with Fox Farm Grow Big Big Bloom Tiger Bloom And Open Sesame Beastie Bloomz and Cha Ching Nutes In 5 Gallon Pots With Fox Farm Ocean Forest Soil How Much Do You Think This Can Get 4oz A Plant Dry Weight?

How Long will You Have To Veg To Get Atleast 4oz Off A Plant 6-8 Weeks?

I think you will find it hard to pull 4 oz off each plant. If I were to try I would keep topping them tell I had a str8 bush id say 8 weeks veg with a root stimulator humboldt honey and gravity.

under a single 1000w hps... 12-15 three gallon pots.

try this: for the first 2 weeks, have your light horizontal with say 12 plants underneath it. remember, the plant grows towards the light. once they're in 3rd week and start to really bud, hang the light vertically, and create a circle of plants surrounding your bulb. lower the bulb, so that the entire plant (every branch, bottom and upper) will receive an equal amount of light.

yes, only one side of the plant will get light, but this doesnt mean you will be getting bud off only one side of the plant. use bamboo stakes and keep the arms stuck to the sides, opening up the centre and allowing light to reach into every part of the plant. I never do sog, i've always hung my lights vertically in stadium setups and my average is between 1.3-1.9 pounds per 1000w hps

I just started some seeds yesterday, 8 of them, and plan to set them up in 2 rows of 4, with a 1000 HPS on a light rail, moving only about a foot or so, back and forth, making sure the ends get illuminated properly, while minimizing any shady areas. I recently got a little over a pound, with a 600 HPS, and hope to pull over 1.5 with the 1000. 2 pounds would be awesome, but since I only have about 4 weeks to veg, from yesterday, that'll be tough. I think with the right spacing, and a little LST to open them up, should be close though.

How were ya planning on placing the 16 plants? I imagine 4 rows of 4 would work well, if ya kept em fairly small.

i got no scales around but 2 3 gallon canola oil pails full of bud. 4x4 3 gallon pots vegged for two weeks after transplant. depending on the strain i use netting sometimes(always with sativas). i can pull more than half of that with one plant in a 15 gallon pot under one 400, this is how i use up my old mother plants when i switch strains. all this will fly out the window on my next grow when i switch to DWC.

i'm smoking 3 oz per month! i'm retired so it's easy to do but it's too much. i am going to cut down to 2 grams per day and see how that is. i find myself smoking out of of habit as opposed to wanting to be a bit higher, and the next thing i know i'm zonked instead of just being nicely buzzed. such a problem!
