Yield up to 500 gram a plant in a 3ft Crop Box?

Grow Cycle Harvesting
1

A question of a fellow grower:
Is it possible to yield up to 4 to 500grams a plant your first harvest growing hydroponically in a 3ft crop box depending the strain?

2

Anything is possible!

3

Ok thankz I planned on growing some green gelato

4

the old rule of thumb before LED lights hit the scene was, IN A BEST CASE SCENARIO, 1/2 a gram per watt of light using 40-50 watts per sq ft. dont know how much that has changed with non-HID lighting. of coarse that is dependant u have good control of other environment conditions.

5

I should clarify. Anything is possible includes, well, pretty much anything :wink: Ending up cursing and crying is a possibility too so due diligence is required.

Anything is possible - ‘probable’ is up to you.

If you geek out on led tech, high yielding strain, ideal environment 1.5+ gpw attainable.

3’ by what? Four plants dropping 500 grams dry each is a pretty big aspiration for an indoor grow. 500 grams per plant takes a pretty damn big plant.

8

now that i think about it. maybe it was 1/2 gram per watt average, 1 gram in a best case scenario. but i guess thats out dated anyhow :confused: i still like my old fashion HIDs :slight_smile:

Nothing wrong with hid’s, I’d say gram per watt attainable too in the right hands. Neither scenario is a given though, gotta put in the work.

and IMO, quality always trumps quantity. a pound isnt very thrilling to me if its not something very enjoyable to smoke

34.75’ sorry about that

12

So over 100 square feet?

13

I agree, but if you’re pulling that kind of weight you shouldn’t have a problem getting a decent run. Light recipe can play into that a little, but anything reasonable is capable of producing quality. In my opinion, nutes and environment have way more to do with quality.

14

And not necessarily 500 but u kno more then 2or3 ounces per plant of green gelato it says it yields 350 to 400 grams per m2 n I didnt understand wut m2 meant so I figured per plant. You wouldn’t happend to know what they mean wen it say grams per m2 or sq m?

15

square meter

16

Grams per square meter, like 39”x39” area. And I would warn that those breeder estimates aren’t a given either. In fact, I would say that a lot of them are inflated.

I know some very good growers that struggle to get more than 2 oz per plant on indoor grows without a lot of training. That usually comes down to experience, veg time, and methods.

17

If you let one plant veg a few weeks longer, you can easily fill one square meter (yard) with one plant.

18

Im not for sure it’s a 5.0 crop box

19

Those are like the size of a dorm room refrigerator. You’re best bet is to try running a single plant in it until you get the hang of it. You could probably a few ounces out of it per harvest once it’s dialed in.

Dont mean to bug you but if I wanted to create my own hydroponic system by goin wit a 18gallon plastic tub dat will hold about 5 6inch round net pots where would I order the whole hydroponic nutrients kit wit the pepples and all n about how much would it run me?
