How much yield could I expect?

[KIMJONGIL]

I have some White Rhino seeds, and I was just wondering how much I could end up producing, if set up a grow thing in a closet with a 100watt equivalent CFL? The closet is pretty big, but I wouldn't want to fill it with plant, since I don't need too much, and I'm also just a little impatient. What is a feasible amount to get out of that? 20gr? 50? 100?

and if your answer is "it depends on how long you let it grow" then how long would it take to get to 20gr? 50? 100?


thanks in advance :)

With one 100w cfl? not much. Your plant would be so lanky and the buds would be small. ...it would seem like forever to get even that.

[KIMJONGIL]

two?

[RAINHAZE]

two?


Growing is the kind of thing that requires patience. Its also the kind of thing where you get out of it, what you put into it.
If you were really serious about growing those beans then you would read some of the sticky's on basic growing and lighting.:thumbsup:

NOOB's guide to lighting in the growing section....all your questions will be answered.

[KIMJONGIL]

my questions are not about lighting.

My buddy started a grow box a couple of weeks ago using just a 100w bulb so I know it's not impossible.

I'm interested in quantity. Is 20gr realistic, if I gave it say 8 weeks?

I'm done here.:thumbsup:

I don't have an answer for you either. However, I can give you a guideline, and perhaps you can figure it out yourself.

An AVERAGE experienced grower with ONE 1000 watt lamp, will grow in a 4 ft by 4 ft space. He may have 16 plants in that area, and he will be happy with one oz per plant.... or 30 gr per plant. So perhaps you can calculate what you will get with your setup yourself. There are some growers that can get twice that amount, but they will have everything from CO2 to a lot more equipment and time than I have.

Alright, that was the answer I was looking for :)

I guess if I did well and with a little luck I could get 15gr. Which would be fine for me. I live in an extremely remote location, and self supply is my only option, so I'm really not picky. Beggars can't be choosers :)

thanks for the answers.

[KIMJONGIL]

didn't say anything about "good" bud

I haven't smoked in years, and have no access at all to any source of weed. If I can get a couple of grams of bad weed, I'll take it.

but the thing that ive noticed around here is if your going to grow it takes alot of time and care, so if your going to grow, and your in a remote location, i would go full bore if i was you, the mroe you put into your grow the more you get out of it. bigger harvest, more satisfaction in the end, did i mention bigger harvest? :rastasmoke:

that's the best advice, I've read in months....:thumbsup:...if you're master of your domain?

[medmike1]

i'm with everybody else. 8 weeks for a couple grams of crap bud? if you dont put shit in your grow, you wont get shit out out of it. good luck though, use what you have and upgrade a.s.a.p.!

[dkm287]

Seriously, Ive never heard any one say they wanna grow shit bud

for around 60$ you can buy some nutes, ph tests, a flourescent shop light or something and a timer - if you just monitor those basic things you should have decent bud with medium sized harvest

and I'm not so sure about the 8 weeks, might take a little longer than that "bud"

see what I did there? Hah

Can you provide us with the size of the closet you are wanting to grow in, perhaps a picture or two? You can get some 23w CFL's from walmart for cheap and some Y adapters and easily add more CFL's for very cheap.

I grew 1 plant (mango) under 60 watt bedside lamp! It took over 5 months to produce 15g dry. 1st attempt with no investiments in equipment eg; lights etc.

The closet is maybe two feet wide and deep, and more than 6 feet tall.

I know bulbs aren't very expensive. I'm more worried about power consumption, actually.

yes it gives you a time frame but bro havnt you listened. your gunna wait 5 months for 15g's of green, and thats not saying its even any good. go get yourself a few CFL's and do this the right way. dont worry about power consumption the CFLs are pretty muhc the poor mans grow light becsue they dont use as much power, but still give off enough light if you use 3-4 of them just tryin to help holmes :rastasmoke:
