I think the issue with weights is new growers will weigh wet and weight popcorn,stalks and leaf and dont realize they will lose at least 2/3rds of weight when correctly dried example- you trim 800 grams wet/damp/fresh cut what ever people want to call it but when correctly dry it will be approx 150-200 grams ..
I also agree with bk78 alot people over estimate there grows

I get almost 20% every time. I had a white widow way back when that dried at 17% of the wet weight. Never seen weed shrink so much as that did :eyesmoke:

I also had a pineapple express that gave me 25% of wet weight. Was a great smoke too :blsmoke:

weighing wet makes zero sense only dried and or cured clean buds is what i weigh i average half gram per watt and for 2 600 watt hps i get about 24 ounces

Until one of you beats my bud Timmy @ 5'8" 395 and owning a 24" dia oak stump at your house for a chair. You ain't got a fat bud. LMAO. Had to

Boosters are just that only half defined. They "Boost Profit Blooms." Save your money and time. Keep your P & K up while maintaining some N. Keep the lights as close as possible. And keep hydrated towards the last few weeks.

And start with a solid soil and plant base above all.

I weigh what I'd buy that includes some stem, there's no chance of me breaking up a cola for weighing lol.

If you do take a cola strip it and weigh the stem its next to nothing, even as a punter there's no room for complaint.

I'm about to give my plants some boosters starting from tomorrow.
Shooting powder to be exact.
I used to not top my plants so they'd grow naturally and had huge colas as big as my calf. Unfortunately the quality was never there when you split the buds up. These days, i'm preferring 100's of pine cones to a few large colas.
Current grow.
This is day 36 flower. Hope they'll get a lot bigger after the booster.

Well that’s a nice looking room. Are those water cooled cobs? And in case I missed it what base u using? I have a box of SP sachets and wondering about using. I’m start of week four so thinking in 2 weeks to try it. Also they’re like 2 years old. Shelf life??

Yeah same boat here, big colas make for pretty pictures but im sure the yield on my many smaller ones is more than i would have gotten from untouched plants, and yields > pretty pictures

They're regular air cooled. I'm using house and garden. I actually went half strength - 2/3rd strength on the shooting powder this time and got a good 650gm/m2 in total. I'm pretty happy with it. Had about 5 rotted colas though, but it was all nice and uniform.

You were growing pot before I was even alive. That was back in the renegade days man. Fucker's would lock you up for life if caught. You're a straight OG homie :)
