Hello guys

So basically i just wanted to hear more experienced growers opinions on conditions and the possible results.

5 Super Lem0n Haze Feminised GREENHOUSE SEEDS
Growbox 1.2m x 1.2m x 1.8m
400w hps
190m3/h exhaust
passive intake
soil is 5,5 ph NPK 15 10 10
also adding a 10/15/5 to water
18l pots
temperature is 27 28 C
humidity 70 80 %
im on 18/6 for 4 weeks then gonna switch for 12/12

so basically my main question is can i expect 4 oz per plant? from your experience

ill be using SOG

if u can see how i can improve conditions, feel free to tell me.
 
Hi Cloud9999 and :welcome:

SOG with 5 plants? Did you mean ScrOG?

A more powerful exhaust wouldn't hurt. Try to get 250m3/h if you can. Also, 400W is on the low side for your space. 600W would be much better.

Look at it this way - if you manage to get 400 grams (14oz) of dry bud, that would be 1g/watt. It's the almost mythical ratio we all aspire to, but very few have achieved it.

With your setup, as it is, I believe around 300 grams (10oz) of total dry bud would be considered a great success. That would be around 2oz per plant. And that is, if you're using ScrOG.
 
Your 400 watt is too small to expect full use of that space -though it can still grow the room full of plants- they just won't be producing as well as they could especially around the edges.
I use 600 watt bulbs. They would barely cover the space you're using. On average if all goes well for me I get about .8 grams per watt. Generally not all goes well, and it almost never did when I was first starting out. In your case just beginning, I would call even an ounce per plant a success- especially if it's good bud.
Really -making it to the end of your first grow, and harvesting your own herb in any amount, and smoking it - is a success.
It's best to not worry too much about yield but just try and grow them as well as you can- everything else will follow.

In other words... The future is very hard to calculate. Work hard on the present and things usually go ok
