Trying to figure out if 4-6 lbs is conceivable in 90 days within the following environment.:idea:

diam. = 4' wide, 5' long, 6' high,
entire area is covered in panda film for light reflection.
there has been 2 previous grow in this area yielding 1/4 lb each but were bag seed.

I would like to really tune it in and get the most out of my space.

strain= White Widow

lights = 1- 1000 hps, I also hv a 400 mh for veg.

fans= 1-550 cfm, 1-200 cfm, and a few small one for circ.

no carbon filter ( on order) it will be a 16x14 foot hill with 130cfm fan 6 x 14 ACTIVATED CARBON FILTER ODOR SCRUBBER 130 CFM

I'm leaning towards a Diy areo set up but not found the right one yet. All my previous grows have been in soil, and this will be my first hydroponic grow.:lol:
According to all my research a hydroponic sog would be the best way to achieve this goal????
I should also include i would like a perpetual harvest of this amount .:bigjoint:

Please give advise on this, en more equip to get ect., ect.
thanks in advance to all u very knowledgeable peep.:leaf:

I actualy sounds like you have everything ready with a grow plan well thought out. With that much light in that small space you need to look at what nutrients you can feed and invest your money there. Plants need light, air and nutrients. You've got the first two covered now it's on the the last one. I'd look at the General Hydroponic Flora Nova series. It is specially tuned to high production needs. I'd also look at some hygrozime or sensizyme which is a root stimulator that has nitrients for the root and also turns any dead roots back into a solution that the plant can then absord. When you get to bloom time you'll want to get a bloom booster. There are 100's of them. Ask around the threads and see what others experience is with their nutrients. Just remember your first grow will somehow get messed up as you learn. You'll get better are you grow. Just so you know, the normal average yield for a hydro planting for that long would be about 3oz per plant. That seems to be the benchmark when you talk to growers. Hope this helps.

Still researching FF nutes.

Then you have pretty much everything your will need for a sucessful grow. Start your engines! Remember to change the res every week or so.

If you're pretty good (or pretty lucky!), I predict about 2 lbs.

Since you have only been putting out 1/4 lb., I'm guessing that there will be a learning curve involved.

My advice is, first learn how to grow FIRE, then learn how to grow BIG!
