Average Yield of YOUR grows?

For those of you that have at least 1 grow from seed/clone to bowl:

In the simplest answer possible --
1) What was the average yield after you DRIED your bud?

2) What lights did you use MOST for each stage? (e.g; xx-watt CFL veg and 400w HPS for flowering)

3) What growing methods did you use? (e.g.; inside dirt, outdoors dirt, in/outdoors special media, hydroponic, aeroponic, etc...)

4) What Special Techniques? (e.g.; light stress, bending/breaking stems, screen, etc)

5) What Nutrients? (e.g.; FoxFarm, Blue Mountain Organics, Advanced Nutrients, Dutch Masters, Miracle Gro, etc.)



5-year old "really good" bagseed:
1) 79.2 grams manicured sensimilla, no seeds, smallest sticks as possible.

2) Forget-@320w CFL veg, 430w Phillips SonAgro HPS

3) Hydroponic/DeepWaterCulture/Bubbleponics in suspended baskets of hydroton in 5gal buckets!

4) Fucked my plants up constantly. Special techniques such as dropping them, leaving light off, letting roots get dry for 18 hours, root rot, breaking tops, FIMMING, intentional bending, light/moderate/extreme stress training, screen, and the occasional nag to produce buds

5) switched through several before settling with Dutch Masters Gold series, A+B growth/flowering, plus Neem oil, Penetrator, Liquid Light, and SuperThrive



Second plant is another sensimilla sativa about a week or two from completion; 50% cloudy, 50% clear, curling/yellowing fan leaves, brownish buds. I am going to flush on Saturday if i dont see more cloudiness in the trics. Anyway, I estimate my dry weight on that one will be over 130grams. yum.

Id make a poll if I was inclined toward wanting to know how. But im not. =) :peace:

1. I average 2.5 - 3oz per plant over 36 plants.
2. 400MH veg and 6x600hps bloom
3. Half dirt half hydro
4. Experience is my special technique
5. GH for hydro. Botanicare for dirt.

i usually average around 2 zips per plant under a 250 hps in fox farms of and using the whole ff line of nutes with not much special training cept maybe topping once.. usually fit maybe three or four plants under the 250 at a time..

i grow only outdoors in native soil that is amended a little each year or two. the family trys to grow around 400 plants a year, out of the plants that are not seeded, the average healthy female produces about 10 OZ. of dried, manicured bud. we have had some exceptional females that have produced about 80 OZ. of dried bud. the smallest healthy producers will yield at least 2 OZ. we grow only our localy adapted landrace that started from my dads seed stock from the 60's (columbian. panamanian, acapulcan, and in the 80's we added northern cal. indica hybrids ). the yield each year is dependent of an endless list of conditions, mostly weather. we have grown in the same system of canyons since before dad went to vietnam. we select the next years seeds from the females and males that demonstrate exceptional qualities such as drought resistant vigor, potency, uniform growth habit, prolific buding, outstanding smell/flavor and a genetic height limit of no more that 6 feet.
i would say that any yield of dried manicured flower of 12 oz. or more per plant is absolutely stellar.

It all depends on your veg if you dont have a good veg your yeild is going to suck its a fact but what i do is
1. I average 3 to 4 zips per plant depends on the straind I don't like indica strainds and dont grow them
2.I use all soil. roots organic soil
3.4-1000"s mh for veg and hps for flower.veg for 4 weeks,flower till done
4.40 plants
5.gh nutes,grow,bloom,kool bloom,compost tea,diamond nector.and botanicare cleanex at flush

I have only done one grow. I got two ounces from that.
I generally average 3 or 4 oz's per plant, occassionally better (depends on strain/pheno). Grown in FF ocean forest (and using the entire FF line up of nutes) under a 600 watt HPS lamp. Vegged for 8 weeks under first cfl's and T8's, then under a 600 watt MH lamp. just basic topping or Uncle Ben's 4-top technique --- I don't mess with sog, scrog, fimm, etc. I prefer to grow a "sea of bushes" instead.:bigjoint:

That sounds about right to me.

But I'm using Advanced Nutrients - not the whole line yet, but close - and it's working out to the upper end of the 3 to 4 ounce estimate.

It always depends on how good I am about the grow, though. Sometimes I just don't watch things as closely, but I still seem to get he best results with AN's stuff.

Other stuff, not so much.

I even find sometimes my pH gets to the right point and then I barely have to check it anymore. And I'm lazy sometimes about getting into my room.

I'd rather just check out the harvest when it's done, you know?

For those of you that have at least 1 grow from seed/clone to bowl:

In the simplest answer possible --
1) What was the average yield after you DRIED your bud?

my last harvest 2 weeks ago netted me 22.5 oz dried

2) What lights did you use MOST for each stage? (e.g; xx-watt CFL veg and 400w HPS for flowering)

1 x 400w MH for mothers
4 x 23w cfl's for aerocloner
8 x 23w cfls for 7 day veg
6 x 600w Quantums in flower room set up in 6" cool tubes


3) What growing methods did you use? (e.g.; inside dirt, outdoors dirt, in/outdoors special media, hydroponic, aeroponic, etc...)

Inside Ebb and Flow perpetual grow flower room with climate/humidity controls and co2 injection

4) What Special Techniques? (e.g.; light stress, bending/breaking stems, screen, etc)

SOG after only vegging rooted clones for 7 days

5) What Nutrients? (e.g.; FoxFarm, Blue Mountain Organics, Advanced Nutrients, Dutch Masters, Miracle Gro, etc.)

Botanicare Pro Gro for Mothers and Botanicare Pro Bloom & Pro Grow for flower room used at 75%bloom nutes and 25% Grow nutes

My grow is a SOG perpetual grow-op. Forty plants chopped on average every 14-18 days with a average net of around 22-24 oz of dried budz
Works for me:weed:

I wanted to update that after cutting and drying, manicuring, no sticks, no seeds I have cut up 197.1g so far.
6-10 day drying time based on two colas sitting for a few days more before second amount of cuttings came in. Had entire closet hanging within .5" of each branch, with 2x box of 50 branches outside of the closet due to space constraints.
I still have 1 main cola branch growing to push as absolutely far as she can go, mold or not. I am going to estimate a total yield of 275g, all trics are cloudy and well formed. Still zero amber but the fan leaves are dying and you can see the fat leaves are turning crunchy and brown. This has been a wonderful experience, and I plan on curing for up to 3 months with meticulous care. All mine. Heh heh. Ive already smoked at least 15g and I had to trim 7g that had gotten moldy.
Cutting the plant mostly down has dramatically improved airflow and it feels much better without all the aspiration.

Awesome. Nirvana White Widow + Dutch Masters Gold + Penetrator/Liquid Light + SuperThrive + AN Revive + 800w HPS = FTW 100x delicious, lemony-citrus overtones with hints of honeysuckle or mimosa sweetness and a minty cooling effect.

1/4 - 1/2 oz per plant in soil

250-watt flourescant grow light off ebay...no special techniques coz I'd be worried about screwing up (especially if I'm on my last obtainable seed of a strain or if the seed was expensive)

on many sites on internett,it says you can get 150-300 grams indoors and 1-5 kilos outdoors...is this true???im a first time grower,and havent harvested shit yet..lol..
 
It's a method of growing where you keep the plant under some sort of net or chicken wire. So you can control height but still get a large plant that sort of grows like a vine on a fence, only horizontally. giving more light where its needed
