Somewhere between 4 and 25 ounces. It’s a healthy plant that will produce well, but its not really possible to estimate yield from a picture. Good lighting will maximize yield, but other environmental factors such as management of pH and PPM, watering, feeding, and so on will also be factors. Yield weight will also be highly dependent on bud density and we can’t see that from pictures. The good lighting does help with bud density.
She looks great and you’ve done a great job getting her to this point. You got 3(ish) or so weeks to go, give or take.

You can use the enter your own data option on the cocoforcannabis grow light calculator and it’ll give you a benchmark for yield. Like @MidwestGuy said there’s a lot of stuff besides the light that will impact the yield. Using that calculator will give you a goal to shoot for though. I actually beat the “yield potential” the calculator gave me on my last grow by 5 ounces.

What light and is that actual current draw or HPS equivalent?
Good question. Make and model of the light will also give us the same information if you do not know the actual power draw.
HPS equivalence is nearly always misstated in the product listings of lower end lights.

Hey just curious how high your light is from the canopy? Beautiful grow btw
Between 10-12 inches
Looks like 12-16 oz, could be more. From my experience with LED, you can expect roughly 1-1.5 grams per watt on average.
In the future, it may benefit you to employ some plant training techniques to get a more even light penetration to your canopy.
