5 weeks out from harvest... nug run??

[bulimic]

As the title says I'm about five weeks away from harvesting. My last grow I sat aside an ounce worth of fresh nug, froze it, then ground it up and blasted it to make the tastiest most floral wax I have ever smoked. I'm growing the same strain this time around and am on planning on using a qp of the next harvest for just blasting some tasty wax. The problem I had however was that I only yielded 5% of the dry weight (about 25% of wet weight) and wanted to find out how to increase yield from fresh material before blasting nearly half of my harvest.

If you have adjusted your yield figures to consider wet weight versus dry weight, you might consider running another extraction on the material. Extraction is slower cold.

Ya man freeze everything for 24 hrs butane and bud and that should help a little, 5 weeks from harvest there's probley not much thc content so 5% is okish.

5 weeks out from harvest meaning about a month onto flower ?

I wouldn't expect to yield more than %10 from extremely premature flowers . Almost a a no brainer , but most strains need that extra month to fill in, trichs get bigger as well. Yields go up.

id cut around the two weeks till harvest time for optimum everything.

5% from a good final harvest , means throw out the strain, unless you reallyyyyy. Really love its high..

I was saying I'm five weeks from harvest as in I'd do this in five weeks when I harvest.

Premature = cannabinoid precursors => cannabinoid

Really? Huff away

HOw did it yield 5% of the dry and 25% of the wet. Yield would lower on the wet as there is more water weight - larger denominator.

You can let it dry out a little for a more realistic number, still produces good flavor and will be able to fit more in the processor.

I mostly do after then stem snap while hang drying. I don't know if that's still considered "live resin" though..
