What Would It Take?
I'm surprise no one has mentioned the fact that there IS a way to get a harvest that large every 30 days...it just requires a rotating crop cycle.
Santacruz basically said this, I guess, but it would require a rather large setup. I would argue to say that $10k is a but large of an estimate. You could do it with much less...considering you have a bit of equipment already.
I'm going to think outloud here for a minute...
IF you could pull 3-4 ounces off of one plant (which is entirely possible), that would mean you would require 4 plants for one pound...or 8 plants for 2 pounds. So you would have to be harvesting 8 plants for your 2 pounds.
Then, to get that harvest every month (assuming you have a 8-week strain), you would have to stagger your flowering to harvest 8 plants one month, and 8 plants the next month...and so on. That means, at a minimum, you would have to have 16 moderately-large sized plants in your flowering room at one time. Half would be one month behind the other half.
I'm sure there would be a way you could configure your lights so that they would be able to cover both sets of plants...some being lower than others.
Well, that's all I could think of. Granted, this is an in an ideal situation considering you control all variables. If you want smaller plants...you need more, obviously. Depends on your space and necessities.
Now, why do you need 2 lbs per 30 days? Sounds like you sure can smoke up a lotta weed. I'm sure you're not planning on selling it, right?
I'm assuming you are just asking this as a hypothetical question, right? Thanks for helping me get my thinking cap on. 
Oh...one last thought...co2 would help. :thumbsup:
