Well you can take my ridicule in stride and prove me wrong in 6 months with a successful harvest, or you can let me be right and just think of me as an asshole time will tell :leaf:

Being a dick aside read through a few of the posts on the newbie section and if you have a question try typing key words into the search bar chances are people have had the same question. ( this would have saved you some of the snide comments when you asked about yield :dunce:)

Advice

-Less is more is some of the best advice i can give to an early grower

-Invest in a good light that fits your space and heat requirements 600 Watt Leds and 400 watt hps / MH are a good inexpensive way to grow bigger

-Buy a PH meter for your soil and water, they cost less then 50$ for both and will solve So many issues and can easily rule out PH problems when problem solving

-The PH meter for the soil generally has a moisture meter so only water when the soil is almost completely dry ( if not stick your finger in as deep as you can if the soil sticks to it don't water ) ( this allows for the roots to spread and develop a strong system to support bud growth ) (over watering tends to be a big problem for new growers )

-When feeding i would say as a rule of thumb use 1/4 of what the bottle says, you can always add more it's harder to take it away, esp in soil

-Invest in good soil / soiless mixture ( do your research into the available grow media Pros cons / time investment vs plug and play )

-Don't cut things off your plant unless you really need to ( Learn how to LST there is a tutorial available on this site ) save the advanced techniques for when you have the basics down and know how to read what your plant needs

-Patients LOTS of it

As an example this plant is about as old as yours , 30 gallon tote in the background


She is under a 1000 watt and has been LSTed out / fed in a soiless mixture with the complete technaflora line. This was in a 10 gallon pot right before we upped her into the 20 gallon she will finish in.

I personally prefer organic soil mixtures with no additional feeding but this fellow grower lives by the technaflora line with great results so just figure out what you like and get successful at it.

When its all said and done she should yield anywhere from 700-900 grams if finished properly. mine usually come in around 1/2 that organically. You will get there too it's not hard it's just time consuming but it should be a labor of love.

be nice we all have a learning curve

he just over did it as it was first time .......he should still pull a oz off it maybe 2 if feeding and water is right

my first soil grow i did 1 oz per plant of fluffy stuff about 15/16% thc i am avg about 5 oz a plant with thc 20% trending to 21% .....i grow auto flowers so my time is shorter then all yours
my first hydro i did make a monster plant ....but that was due to auto genetics and the amount of food i was offering was in the upper 3000ppm to low 4000ppm

i had no clue what i was doing on it i freaked out like crazy man

I am to mean and you are to nice, with what has happened to that plant I don't imagine it will make it through a full flower cycle before hermi / he will do as many have done in the past and strip it clean being impatient / drying them in the oven for a quick smoke lol. I predict 4-5 grams of usable product

hahaha deal if you live out by Michigan i would actually pay up too,

- I would say my realistic guess would be 14 grams if he doesn't pick it clean and lets it go full term under the available lighting ( for a beer )

- 60% chance it gets cut 3 weeks early and yields 9 for the low ball lol ( that gets me 2 shots of whiskey )

i would say no more advice until his next crop lol, he has the tools available and i'm betting on him as much as the plant for the yield estimate can't give him a ringer in his corner esp with a bottle of shine on the line.
