of 10 or 11 plants under a 1000 watt hps im just curious becaus i just wacht this thing on you tube about setting up a grwo room and it showd about 30 plants and it lookt liek he only got about 2 or 2 and a half pounds so how much can get from just liek 10 or so
I don't think the number of plants matters as much as genetics, amount of useable light, and how they are grown. If you grow a big sativa, one plant can produce 2 pounds all by itself. Of course, I'm talking the 10' tall or bigger ones. The commonly thought of 'holy grail' is 1 gram per watt, which most newer growers do not reach, but experienced growers can exceed. If you go by that, then 1000 watts should get you 2.2 pounds. Personally, I aim for half a gram per watt, and then if it goes beyond that, I'm very happy. If I were you, I'd be happy with a pound, and count everything beyond that as bonus bud. ;)
I agree that a gram/watt is a respectable yield for the personal use grower. I grow under a 400wMH, and in a perfect world, bring in 350-450g 3 times a year. I say perfect, because there's many a slip 'twixt the sprout and the smoke. Even a seasoned grower can have husbandry disasters.
