You'd have to have a very efficient set up to acheive the 1gram per watt yield.

It's certainly doable with a 600 HPS on a mover and a hydro set up - 600 grams or six 4 oz plants.

Take a look at PitVipers grow...
Yea good observing bro.
How much is 10 apple's + 10 peach's ?

I have room heater of 2400W ,so I will try to grow on that heater.
I hope in 1w = 1gr like you said.
...imagine yield of 2400W heater...

But ... I still don't get it... How Compact Fluoroscent light give same
light in my room but spend less Watts than Tungsten light ?
Please when you have time tell me how this come about light and watts,
Im very interested to hear and learn this.

Right, it's not a calculation for expected yield - it's a goal attainable by the best indoor growers.

Re: is it ture 1 watt= 1 gram

Once again, you will not get 1 gram from 1 watt with CFLs, ever.

Not sure if I'm being unclear or what.

There are only a handful of guys on this site that have the ability to hit 1 gram per watt.

It takes a very sophisticated HID setup to get 1 gram per watt.

Most of us will fall far short.

Not sure how I can be more clear.

is it ture 1 watt= 1 gram

The bench mark growers strive to reach is 1 gram per 1 Watt/ lumen OK cool.
Now my question does that matter how many plants you have? example one 1000w light and 2 plants = 1000grams or 1000w light and 5 plants = 1000grams
Does it matter how many plant you have are you still going to get the same yield?
just a new guy trying to learn from the pro's
Thanks

If you had both scenarios in vegetative growth for the same amount of time, then, yes. You'd need more time for less plants. Shrubs have less plant material than trees.
