While ^ this is true. It depends on many factors, but above all experience. I get 1.75 ounces off a plant under my 250. But when I first started I got .75 ounces from each plant, that was an all natural grow in shitty soil though. Since that I have tried many different method, found a nice "light" LST method and continue to work with it as my goal is 2 ounces per plant, but I am still fine with my 1.75.

Depending how you grow them and how long you veg them... I would say .50-.75 for an average first time grow, given you know some shit and have a fuckup-resistant strain.

gratefuldave, you don't say whether it is soil or hydro or how many plants or how much space. A rule of thumb might be 1 lb. per 1000watt light in soil. Double that for a good hydro operation. Your 250 could yield about 4 oz. with 3-4 plants in soil.

what kokua said is very true ... my first grow (under 196 total watts) produced about 1 1/2 ounces . i was delighted . my second grow (same set-up) produced maybe 1/2 ounce . a 250 in the hands of an experienced grower should yield a few ounces, for sure, but dont be disappointed if your yield(s) are small at first . it's an interesting hobby regardless of crop size.

general average depending on strain, IMO, newbie 2-3 oz.... experienced 4-6.

i grew a females seed c99 in a closet with a 250w hp it was about 3 feet tall and the light was vertical next to the top about 6 inches away and i got 2 ounces

I average a few OZ's from my 250 usually with 3-4 plants. The only downside to the 250 is the lack of penetration. Its perfect for LST and topped bushes.
