Hmmm new to hydro (finally taking growing seriously)

So here is the set-up:

perpetual (not consequential, really)

in 2-gallon DWC buckets (3 total)

Under a 90w UFO (gothamhydro)

No co2 supplementation


Strains:

Humboldt Seed Org: OG Kush s1, Sour Diesel s1
World of Seeds: Sugar Mango Ryder

So what's my yield going to be? (for those of you who want to give sarcastic answers...fire away...hopefully they are funny!)
Or what other info do you need so that you can accurately guess?

Thanks!

Depends on how Deep the Water,usually tells on em.When you ordered em it says yield expectancy.....

My apologies,

Ideally, I would like to be cloning in rockwool. I'm assuming 10 days for them to root. I would like to Veg them for 2-3 weeks plus the +/- 11 days after rooting.
So Veg Time would be 5-6 Weeks minus Rooting time (going with recommendations as to whether 5 or 6).

As for water depth, I am unsure. These are the buckets, hope links are okay here: http://www.stealthhydroponics.com/product.php?xProd=736

I don't know much about led (not first hand at least) but I usually tell people they can only expect what they put into there grow in watts so even if it was comparable to a 400w hid you still prably shouldn't be expecting much at least for what you are putting into the grow. Will you be flowering all 3 at once? If so my best guess is around 4 ounces at best with the vague description given.

why anyone would even ask that question is beyond me. how the hell is anyone supposed to really give an answer to that? it could be 2 grams or 2oz.

@ Moebius - oh. lol. I certainly debated it but still fell for it. nice!
@drgreentm - I will be flowering the auto first to get it out of the way, then every three weeks adding a clone to the flowering room and harvesting one plant (stinkbud style). Thanks!
@superstoner1 - Because those of us who are new assume there is somebody out there who has many grows under their belt and can give us a decent estimation.
@Somebeech - you got me! lol

Alright well thanks for responding rather than leaving it blank!

Well what do you average per plant,and personal best?
Click to expand...
in my aero rail system i average 3-3.5 per plant. personal best in rails has been 6.5 but this is all different strains. some i have are extreme top level quality smoke but would be lucky to get 2oz with 5 weeks of veg, and some easily pull 4oz with three weeks of veg. superskunk is my backbone strain, very consistant, great looking tight buds, but at the moment i have 14 strains.

Got me mines only a little over 3oz.Love me some skunk,Does the super grow big and smell like a ol polecat.Got some SAGE going now,BB and MK/ultra.I do RDWC and Soil for mothers too many to mention addicted to Buying seeds.Have like 8 mothers and a seed collection,But dont have the superskunk.Alot of the OGx crosses.

Dont concentrate on yield, concentrate on ur plants enviornment. Your asking how much your going to yield but I see you stated you have no co2? Co2 will play a good role in your yield, if you cant afford the co2 boost bucket, then purchase a "Exhale Co2 Bag", your gonna want some fresh co2 in there at all times, especially during flowering stage.

i ran my completely sealed room for two years before adding co2, they lived on me talking to them, and was still pulling 28-32oz at the time. dont rush into co2 unless you have room, enviroment, nutes and strains all dialed in or it will not be worth it.

i got my superskunk clone from a longtime, old school grower friend that had the pheno for many years. it has no skunk smell, instead it is very fruity, has a great medium high. i also love skunk strains and have had many different ones, and just popped early pearl x skunk. i do not keep mothers, i have a perpetual setup and just make sure i always have each strain represented.

Sorry but I have seen or heard of growing in a mini 2 gallon bucket. Why not the standard 5 gallon bucket? You may have issues growing out of a mini 2 gallon dwc bucket. Especially if you plan to veg for several weeks. But good luck and keep us posted on your 2 gallon dwc grow.

now that you mention it, I have done some more research and am considering the 5 gal. I'm wasn't looking to grow 4-5 footers (quoting the guy from stealth hydro on the what a 5 gal can achieve, forgive me) but I def want enough space. I'm thinking 30 days of vegging would net me around a 1.5-2 ft. plant. (?) So double that in flowering and I might need to LST anyways I guess. My height limit is 4.5 ft cuz of the light and filter.

Can I get some more opinions (cheap options?) on the co2 (since we have one for and one against) ??

what about the stretch on the OG and SD ? Experience anyone?
