It's definitely doable
3+lbs per 1000 watts? 1.6g per watt. Anyone?
What strain? Veg time? Flower time? Final dry weight ? (Whats the best producing light)
Really like the g/w per cycle ? Or g/w/days
What are you all getting meter squared? There is definately many variables

Haha I don’t care how much gram they have . Yes show me the finished bud plz!!

A lot of people use incorrect metrics. If your yield metric doesn’t include a time variable, it’s useless.
3lbs out of a 4x4 footprint sounds awesome, until you hear it takes 6 months. 1.5lbs every 8 weeks is actually a much larger yield.

What are we talking. [email protected]/w. A 1700umol/second light. Run that all 60 seconds of a minute, all 60 minutes of the hour, for 12 hours a day. That's 1000x1.7x60x60x12= 73,440,000umol or 73,44 mole/d
Put that in a 1.4x1.4 tent. That is a floor of 2 meters, giving 36.72mol/meter.
I was reversing out of a bugbee paper, when I ran over a few numbers.
His P level trials were just shy of 40mole/d (900umol) for about 9.5 weeks.
This gave them 650g a meter, at 0.25g per mole they said.
This 0.25g per mole is reasonable.
If we want to do that with our 73.44 moles per day light, at Bugbee's 18.5g per day growth rate, it might take more than 9.5 weeks.
3lbs is 28.35x16x3=1.36kg
1.36kg growing at 18.5g a day, is about 10.5 weeks. He got 90% of the way there, but wasn't trying.
Bugbee bid the typical 650g per meter, of a higher yielding strain. Taking about 9 weeks, with nearly 1000umol. 0.25g per mole. That is a figure I can remember and associate with.
0.25g per mole of photons.
It's still not 3lb's per light though

If you have 9 weeks, and want 3lb off a 1000, you want 0.294g per mole.
600w mars in a 1.2 ?
600x2.5umol/w gives us 1500umol/s or about 1000ppfd (as it's based on a meter, and we have 1.5 meters(1.2x1.2=1.44)). 1000ppfd is 43mole a day. That's quite a DLI to keep up with, but we can do it
Lets go full commercial, 7 week batch rotation. 65moles going in a day. 3050moles total. We want 900g total or 600g a meter to give a scalable result. Equivalent to 3lb's under a 1000 for 9 weeks.
I think for commercial repeatability you would use a 1.4 tent. Then with the 750umol, a 450g per meter yield, in 7 weeks, is coming into focus. A pound per light analogue, that's achievable, without a terrible looking product.
I would rather shoot for the 600g a meter, as the smoke from a 43dli room is more promising.
Actually, I have some 47 day pics here..
That should be done, but a water supply change had my cuts dive, and just this runt went in as I like the taste. The frame is 18x38, and the nets 100mm squares. It won't do 3g/mole.
This next one is listed 49-56 days
It has the same spacing. It's probably the 3lb off a 1000 in 9 weeks standard. It has 650umol so needs to do 40g. Who knows.
I knelt looking down at a bottom bud, catching some light through gaps in the canapy. We spent some time together, as I smoked a relative. It was just a little tiny thing, but offers a closer look at the strain above.
It's no bigger than your thumb, and there is nothing below it, but the floor. It will certainly work.
