What is the average conversion weight from fresh cut buds to their properly cured final weight? Let's say one has 100 gms fresh. From faq's it seems they imply 80% reduction, but I'd like to hear from a few current growers on their formula.
Thanks!

Quite a diff between mjetta's estimate and WSlayer's . . . I'm rootin' for Mjetta, but guessing it's closer to Slayers. Bump-a-roo!

Plant with dense bud..lose about 70-80%...lighter..50-70%..depends on how much lumber..you've got the wood..I'll send you the plans for the deck..:)

So you're saying smaller, looser nugs tend to lose less drying weight? Is that right?
And that thinner stems/stalks also result in less curing loss?
That makes perfect sense.

One of us is confused more than the other?

In my experience u should expect to lose 60
to 75 percent,max! I have a suspicion that the 80% figure is put out there so ppl wont b disappointed. I have never seen that much loss in a fresh bud, ever.

That's good news. I thought not even an ounce out of 100 gms was a bit pessimistic.
Only time'll tell now. Thanks.
