Im wondering how much i can expect from the 5 plants i have? Im growing northern lights x haze. I am useind a 400w HPS light and useing a emilys garden. my nutes are Flora Nova Bloom plant food 4-8-7, Kool Bloom ripening formula 2-45-28, an superthrive. the plants ar between 14 and 25 inches now and they have been in flowering for 6 days.

Depends on a few factors, how tall you let them grow on veg cycle, like my six ladies were 3 foot tall when I put them into bloom so I am hoping for 3 ounce a plant, your plants are 1 - 2 foot so I would say 1 - 2 ounce at the most per plant, it also depends on the strain you are growing too.

To get 10 ounces you need to harvest roughly 35 - 40 ounces
That means you are expecting 7 - 8 ounces wet per plant.


Sorry dude, you wont make it.

lol, now now dont get all mad at each other. everyone has their own opinion thats why I askedbut yeah 10 ozs per plant sound great but i think high hopes. i think bleek187 ment for the whole crop though. so F it and lets all get High!! ;)

He's not saying 10oz per plant. He's saying 10oz total. 2oz per plant.

I always assume weight is dry weight.

Agreed, so to get 10 ounce dry will need 35 - 40 ounces wet from 5 plants = 7 - 8 ounce wet per plant to allow for the 65 - 70% loss in weight through drying.

For my first grow I had 7 females which is Jack's (Jack's is meant to be one of the best for crop size) and I got 2 ounce (dry) per plant which were about the same size as rb2006 plants.

ok... the question was... i have 5 plants... how much can i expect???

i said... 7 to 10oz.......

what makes you think i ment 7 to 10 per plant???

simple question with a simple answer.. how much can i get outta 5 plants? 7 to 10 oz.... next time before you decide to make some smartass comment why dont you use your head and think for a few seconds...

also im not talking about wet weight.. why would i tell you what to expect in wet weight... but your telln me that you cant harvest 1.4oz per plant dry????? ... i average 1.5 to 2oz dry per plant... so yea mr smart man... 5 plants = 7 to 10oz DRY

also im not talking about wet weight.. why would i tell you what to expect in wet weight... but your telln me that you cant harvest 1.4oz per plant dry????? cuz if not.. id hate to see your crops... i average 1.5 to 2oz dry per plant... so yea mr smart man... 5 plants = 7 to 10oz DRY

idiot


It was more than likely because I said per plant after rb2006 and as a result the thread had carried on from there and nobody has qouted rb2006 thread (even you Bleek187) so as far as I am concerned it was per plant unless quote by rb2006 1st post, how about you go have a smoke and come back without the attitude.........

Kludge, your correct in thinking that i wasnt talking to you. I can get along with everyone, but a smartass comment or any derogatory statement directed at me will get a negative responce from me. Also know that when i tell you something its not because i read it in a book somewhere or because im going by some statistic that i read on the web... "blah blah 70% wet dry blah blah" Im only telling you what i know from my own results and i dont need some jerk telling me that its not posable when i do it on a regular basis..

Bleek187,

I think you need to stop the name calling or you will end up getting banned, it is a simple misunderstanding thats all - It is one thing having a good debate but is another when you start name calling.

Thats too bad, are you going to take some clones off them at all and the next time round let them grow bigger and you will get more from them, always keep improving things - more improvments = more yeild....

When you are talking about yield, it will always be a very hard question to answer. There are just too many variables. Are these being grown from seed or clone, how long of a veg, the strain you are growing, and the conditions you provide.

with that said, it is easy to say that I get this amount per plant so you sould be about to get that as well, but this is only true if you are growing the same or similar strains in the same or similar conditions. So yes it is easy to get 2 oz's per plant growing a small number of larger plants, but it is a lot harder to achieve this same figure, if you are loading a large amount of clones, because the plants will have to be smaller.

Also another major aspect is the space and lighting efficiency. So you can have a 400w hps in different square footages and it will yield totally different results.

A good rule of thumb to shoot for is 1 gram per square foot. In an efficient garden with an experienced grower this can be achieved regularly, but starting out you will see yields closer to .3-.6 grams per watt, so around 120 - 240 grams total, from your 400w light.

One of the "girls" being a boy might not really make a difference. When you start talking about yield, the number of plants is almost immaterial. Yield is more a function of your lighting, not the number of plants. As a newby grower and the fact that you didn't veg your girls for very long, you can probably expect about 1/4-1/2 gram per watt of light--400W=100-200 g of dry bud.

For my first grow I had 7 females which is Jack's (Jack's is meant to be one of the best for crop size) and I got 2 ounce (dry) per plant which were about the same size as rb2006 plants.

Actually Jack is one of the least yielding plants of all. That is why it is a connaisseur strain. The smoke is fantastic but yields are on the downside. Believe me though Cam, if I could get my hands on Jack seeds with a prepaid card I would.
