Total noob question about yield
    #573925 - 07/22/11 03:14 PM (13 years, 5 months ago)

I know this is asked a million different times on a million different forums and there are a million different factors, but if I'm growing 4 Sour Grapes in a 4x4 space (it's a 4x8x6.5 foot tent, but i'm only using one half right now) with 1000 W HPS, in an ebb and grow, with a mixture of Technaflora and AN....what would be a safe yield expectancy? these plants are healthy, the buds look great, and they are halfway done.

sorry for asking such a noob question, just wondering if there was a general "rule of thumb" for estimations.

thanks dudes and dudettes

How did you grow them?SOG  SRCOG  or just natural
How tall are they?
Also pictures would be nice.
There is really no way to answer this question, due to many unknown factors.
But I don't mind guessing, with answers to the above questions.

no SCROG. just let these bitches do their thing. they have lots of side shoots that are almost as tall as the main cola. they are all about 20-22 inches, i'd say. beautiful plants. here's some pics taken 2 days ago....

It's just growing through a screen at the lower branches too help spread out the branches and promote uniform growth.

As for your yeild, I'd say 1lb dry.

awesome. thanks dude. one pound would make me very happy. i would be content with half, to be honest. This has been such a rewarding experience already. i can't wait to harvest.

when doing SCROG, how many times do you normally top? i just want to create a badass canopy and fill my 4x4 with like 9 plants at a time....and eventually put another 1000 w in there and fill my 4x8x6.5

One or two tops usually do it.  I'd suggest LST before adding the screen to ensure spread. 

As for the lb.  1lb per 1000w is considered very good for an intermediate grower; especially in hydro.  Your plants look to be in excellent shape though, I'll be checking in after harvest.

awesome. I've got some plants next in line that are already topped. one is actually in the picures in the very middle, it's a Kushberry that i just put in to flower yesterday. hard to see in between the Sour Grapes.  This is my first grow, so i'm pretty pumped on it. I feel i have a fairly decent grasp on things. More knowledge is always better, so any tips are greatly appreciated. i'll be posting harvest pics
