Hey everyone! Long time no see. I have ran into a situation that I am stumped about. On my yield on a recent harvest. I'm hoping someone can clear things up for me because I feel like I'm failing really hard right now haha.
I ran 3 Kosher Kush plants a couple months back from seed. All three with different phenotypes. They got a short veg time in some soil I mixed up myself. They were in 3 gallon smart pots. They were topped once. I didn't expect much from them with a short veg time but ended up with an average of an ounce per plant. Which I was relatively happy about because I expected much less.
The last run I did was the same three different phenotypes, all cuts I took from the originals. The differences from this run and the first are as followed; I used a different soil mix (plants looked healthier then previous harvest during veg and flower.) I also placed a scrog screen above the plants and were given longer veg time to help fill the scrog screen. Lastly, they were placed in 10 gallon smart pots instead of the 3's.
With all of these upgrades I would of imagined a larger jump in a yield then I am currently estimating. I don't have the final dry weight yet but if I compare wet weight and percent return after dry from the previous harvest and this one, I am only seeing an increase of 1 to 1 1/4 ounces per plant.
Am I missing something or is this a normal increase?
If you want anymore information let me know!
