Gram per watt? I have a 600 + 400 in a 4x8 area. 12-12 when plants were 16in. And were topped alot. Filled area with 16 plants. First runs were teribble cuz of shitty equipment, dirt and nutes. I am now organic this run and is lots better. Also way better equipment and better temp control. Can i expect 2 lbs of this then???????? These range from 23-33 days of 12-12

i honestly think you will struggle to get 1gpw with that grow, the canopy looks too thin.

i would estimate, given they remain healthy for the remainder of the grow you will yield 1.5lb tops.

you should still be happy with that, the bud on pic 9 looks lovely!.

Looks thin? As in how? I thought it looked pretty cramped. I would be happy with 1.5 tho. Ithink # 9 is some diesel.

i don't mean that there aren't enough plants i just mean they haven't made full use of the vertical as well as horizontal space, also multi straining is never good for getting high yields un less you have grown the strains a few times together and worked out how best to design the canopy.



look where the pots are then look where the top of the plant is, it looks around 12 inches to me, maybe thicker in parts but not consistant.

i didn't quite hit a gram per watt in this grow, the canopy could have been thicker

you're welcome man and here are a couple pics of my little 4 x 4 closet grow and you'll note that no cooltube is necessary, ...i use a CanFan MaxFan 6" with the 3 speed controller as my exhaust fan and i normally run it on the middle setting with no heat issues, in an open room like yours it should be easier to keep it cool.





...and the fan/scrubber during construction.



...here is a link to a thread authored by Heath Robinson who is renowned for his skills in all areas of ganja growing that would fit your situation very well i think.

Heaths latest tree grow

good luck man, just don't expect too much as you learn your chops, better to keep your expectations low in the beginning so you'll always be pleasantly pleased as your results out perform your expectations.

peace, bozo

...yeah man, here is a link to Marlo's thread where i learned this tech and while his grow style is different than mine, he is a VERY skilled and clever guy, ...his light mover yo-yo is really cool and made from a common garage door opener.

THE WoW THREAD.

peace, bozo

btw, it's very difficult to critique someone's grow from just pictures, which is why i provide so many links in my posts, this way you can study the threads that taught me and instead of a simple answer that may or may not apply, you'll have the chance to learn the principles and thereby understand why something works so you'll then be able to tailor it to fit your unique circumstance.

I think its possible for you to get that from that setup. I usually get about 28 to 36 ounces of each thousand watt bulb. I don't have experience with any smaller bulbs. Using 1000 watters I expect 1 gpw and have since my second grow. You'll get it your grow looks great.
