hi all. i hope this isnt too dumb of a question. i see the standard "im growing 3 plants how much bud will i get" questions without specs on setup, pics or anything else that might help a guess. so here goes. these ladies are in their 10th week, 2nd of 12/12. they are bag seed, in soil under a 250w hps. 1 plant has been pruned and is kinda bushy and the other 2 were not topped but i have been bending them to get more out of my space.anyway, any guess would be appreciated this is my first serious attempt and im just curious

you have answered some good questions except the BIG one and a few more
lol


1)...................... WHAT STRAIN IS IT lol...............................

the harvest will depend on how many weeks it flowers , if its indica or
sativa ,outside or inside plant , know for massive harvests (ie big bud)

2) what fertalizer are you using is it miricle grow "lol" or a proper hydroponic/
marijuana fert?

3) what fans are you using is there enough air flow or is it really hot in there ?
and check the temp with a normal thermometer ....

we need the strain name ....if its unknown as in you grow it coz you found it
in some weed you bought it could be anything but normally white
widow ,ak47 or
big bud

unknown strain ...... 300 gpms ( grams per meter squared )
so about 30 grams per plant (an 0zz) 3 plants = 3 ozz
with shit ferts .......150/200 gpms
so about 15.20 grams per plant 3 plants = 1.5/2 ozz

if its a really good strain that you know the harvest could be anything up to
600 gpms so like 2 ozz per plant so like 6 ozz all togther !

answer thease and we will get back
peace : )

thats the thing. all three are from bag seeds that i can promise you werent anything special.i dont smoke great stuff therefor the seeds are probably not the greatest either. i watch the temp daily, keep it at 77 ish. the air circulation isnt great but it isnt stagnant. no fans in the room (closet) but 1 outside. i use "b'cuzz" ferts which were recommended by my local hydroponics store for soil growing. the gpms, can you eleaborate? is that grow room size or rough size of plant. also what should i expect from the topped plant? does that affect yield or just size?ie- will i end up with the same amount, just in smaller buds?

ok gpms is a standard saying when dealing with estimated yeild , you are
MEANT to give 1 plant 1 squarer foot so around 9/10 plants per meter
squared
so if the strain says it yeild 300 grams per meter squared it really says 300
grams every 9/10 plants so divide 300 by 10 = 30 grams per plant
estimated

you need some fans in there the co2 will need to be replenished every 3
minutes even a couple of computer 12v fans/ desk fan will work just get the
air moving around they will yeild more!!!!!

when you top a plant it seperates the main stem into more managable smaller
parts ...some people think you get more yeild from more branches but what
you actually get is the same amount of weed on a larger area so you'll get
lots of little buds instead of a massive dominant center bud

temp and ferts sound ok .

if i were you instead of having good equipment and shit smoke ...get some
good seeds from www.seedboutique.com get get some quality smoke back
from it ... its a safe web site for ordering to the usa : )
