One pound plant grown in a closet??

Do you think its possible to harvest 1lb of cured herb from 1-2 plants grown indoors? The plants will be in a 4x10 closet in 5 gallon pots. If not possible what do think would be needed to make it so? What cha think RIU??

I had a full blown mother (4'-5' tall) i use to cut clones from. I decided to flower her in a 15gal bucket under a 1000w HPS and i got a little over 3/4 lb. of dried weight. i could of done a little better but i didnt really care i had clones and my intentions where to re-mother her i figured it was better than throwing it away. i dont see why you cant reach similar if not better results.

I did mine in soil if you go hydro i dont see why not

You're going to need a big light, and a very long veg period. Could you possibly have more plants? They could be smaller, but you'll be much more closer to your goal of a pound, in a relative short amount of time.
 
purple#1
super lemon haze
cheese

im hoping to grow one maybe two of these strains in the closet with a goal of atleast a lb/cured bud at harvest.the otheer will be grown outdoors soon as spring comes.

let that veg until its about 3' tall under a good light (no stretch).. 1000W (well ventilated and cooled). get some cfl's for side lighting and give it a go.. You may need to top it.

First lets start with your strains of choise, the only true yielder that you have on your list is teh cheese they do yeild very well if you chose the other two you will not get your goal..Now as for the question, yes you can get a pound of bud from two plants but you must do as the one poster said have very good set up lighting ventalation etc. And he is also right about the vegging but the one thing i'd definately do is top and fem them girls and train them well try to keep your canopy very even and under 3 feet before flipping 12/12 maybe 2 1/2 feet topped 3 or 4 times..Take good care of them and dont over stress them out and your goal could be met..the reason i say keep your canopy at 2 1/2 feet or so before flowering is some dont realize that if your topping and traning (tying down) your plant that plants actual height is around 4 feet or so..so yes it can be done but its not easy..Peace
 
Thanx for the input SB!! Ill definitley take everything into consideration. I have no experience training Plants and i know this is something you have to practice before getting it rite. So i think ill do a couple practice runs before i try and go in for the whole pound. Thanx again

I'd check out Uncle Ben's topping technique if I were you... or! You could try out LST, which is what I'm gonna do my next grow. Two five gallon pots under LST will probably give you some tasty results.

See which one of those will suit your fancy. Also, you hands down need a 1k watt hps. Considering that optimal results = 1 gram/watt and there are 888 (give or take) grams in two pounds.
I don't remember if you said you were using soil, but if you are:https://www.rollitup.org/subcools-old-school-organics/338384-2010-revised-super-soil-recipe.html check out that recipe, it will help you immensely.

Hey thanks MC i forgot to refer him to that sight for help even though he asked for the help my bad but great pick up man ..Thats what RIU is all about..Peace
 
Thanx MC that was extremely helpful. Ill take your advice SB and go with the cheese to attemp to achieve my goal. Looks like im gonna have to mother and clone her. Ill use the SLH and P#1 to practice the teqniques and well see how that turns out lol. Thanx for the input guys. Any more input would be greatly appreciated.
 
Yeh thats what ive heared. I hear shes pretty difficult but the outcome is worth it. Im most eager to grow her than any of the others. I think instead of trying to achieve my goal of a pound from the closet, ill just begin vegging all three in december and puttin them out when the season hits.
