Is 4-5 lbs a reasonable expectation from 2600 watts hps in a 5x10.5 ft area in soil? I typically average 1.5-1.75 lbs in a 1000watt 4.5x4.5ft tent
Another one of the 100s of yield post

Yes only good nug weight not the bottom larf. What seems like a reasonable yield to you?

I'm no pro but I tend to receive good results. Quality is always prime. Yeilds typicly around .7 gpw. Just throwing in more light and plants to increase yeilds and frequency. What would you expect from such set up? Plants are already vegged and I have 2/3rds of canopy filled, just a little room left for stretch

2.5 is a good goal to start with
The footprint you are working with
Is the problem i see for the huge numbers you are asking about

I could pull a minimum of 3 off of 2000 watts in separate 4x4 tents. I think experience is being underestimated due to the "noob" type question lol. Not a new grower just trying to expand. I appreciate any and all input!

I have 8 girls in a 5x12 trellis under 3 de 600w gavitas, aiming for 2 a light. 1.5 off a 1k light should be easy imo, id be aiming higher!

Basically I know my yield for every 1000w in every 4.5 x 4.5ft is minimum 1lb. I'm trying to figure out if it worth it to spread thing out and put a 600 in the middle which would be an additional 2.5x 4.5 ft

All tester strains... not yet named. Private genetics from a passed on friend 8 of them.... and 3 purple diesel

If you don't mind me asking how much do you typically yeilds from that set up? I will be switching to cmh here soon and I've heard they yeild similar to the 600s

I did use the yeild calculator on anglefire for hps upgrades and it said I could yeild more with a little more space with my lights. I can alter the 5ft to enlarge space but the 10.5ft are stationary walls. And I feel if I go to 6 or even 5.5ft I'm diminishing the intensity of my light footprint

my first round with these lights I only had 2 of them, 6 plants. 4 glue, 2 golden strawberry and pulled a little over 1400g dried and trimmed, about 3 pounds off the 2 lights. (strawberry didn't yield for shit tho) I have a friend that's running 9 315 cmh in a 10x10 and he pulled 7 pounds dried and trimmed, it was a bit over a gram per watt. Also makes me want to switch to cmh lol

Its not impossible jeff.

Exactly why I am!!! So about 1.5 per light for your 600s? Does he run into heat issue with cmhs? I want 2 replace 2000 watts with 5 cmhs

yah 1.5 that round but i know i can hit 2 a light with better genetics maybe even more. No heat issues with a 3ton mini split!

I only have 1 ton ac ATM so it's becoming and issue with more hps, part of the savings with cmh to! I feel like I'm gonna hit my goal tho on this one now
