You can 100% grow 3 plants under a 150w hps, do a search some people do more! I suggest a scrog screen of green for max yield. Assuming there not auto flowers. So veg for 3-4 weeks fill 70% of screen then 12/12 for flowering. you'll yield more then 2oz! Suppose we say 1gram per watt = 150 grams. So now lets say its your first grow and some minor mistakes are made like nute burn over/under watering blah blah, that takes us down to 100grams. 28 grams in a oz 100/28= 3.6oz

Hey man, that sounds pretty good. Keep in mind Lowryder, Lowryder #2 and Easy Ryder are all autoflowering strains. This means you won't be able to control how long the vegetative stage lasts and your ScrOG screen might not be completely full when they start flowering on their own in 3-4 weeks. Having said that, I am also doing an Easy Ryder ScrOG grow inside of a PC case, so it could be interesting to trade notes as our plants grow. Feel free to check out the journal in my sig. Do you have one?

Great! I'll be on the lookout. I know you've already seen my GJ but in the interest of redundancy, I'm 3 days into my grow including germination. Currently, her first true leaves are about the size of the cotyledons.
