    Question Curing jars

    First grow and I dont know what I'm going to be yielding.. Three plants I am going to take a guess at 5oz per plant cause that's what I've been told to expect. 15 oz of dry is somewhere around 45 oz of wet weed? I don't even know what wet weed looks like, or how much space it uses up. Such a noob.. I'm so sorry guys if this sounds like such a dumb question

    How many jars and of what size do I need for curing?

    Many thanks

    I don't think I've ever had that much before

    The most I've ever had to deal with in on one 'hit' was 5.5 oz

    I read the diary on that just a few days ago. Was well impressed. Best yield wasn't it? For that water tank cupboard it's impressive man.

    @nom, wait till it's chopped for wet weight, buy while it drys for 5-7 days that way you'll get a rough weight to work from and add some jars just in case is how I'd work it out for each strain. If you're chopping at different times do you have a drying space? Or you just using your room?

    Don't jar wet weed though, cut it down and trim it/manicure, dry it out then cure it in the glass jars, burping them daily
    most aim for one gram per watt of dried weed, that's the usual goal...

    That was when I used to have a tent in the cupboard, altered to 58x58x140 - but I revamped things & have loads of room now... 77x58x185 - makes a difference it does

    But, yeah, a personal best - & if you find another couple of diaries, you'll realise that there was more than one plant under that 250w HPS at the time & an easy g/w

    But what does it mean. Because it can't mean total kw since seed to harvest else that would be stupid amounts.

    How big are those jars MC? 2 or 3 litres? 1.2 oz per jar? is that from one plant? I have three, so that's 3x as many jars? 15 x 2L jars? Sounds like an awful lot

    How do you work this shit out!! I obviously want to have the jars here ready to use when the time comes.

    Of course the bud is dry going in the jar haha, Thanks for correcting me Monster idk what I was thinking

    I'm drying inside my wardrobe Karsa

    600w light is 21 ounces, so I should expect 21 oz between the three plants if I have done everything right? that's considerably more than the 5oz per plant I was told to expect.. almost an entire plants worth

    1g/w is like this...

    If I had a 400w HPS then 400g of dried bud would equal 1g/w

    That's what I would have assumed but I wanted to be sure else I'd be looking at around an aim of 4kg that would sort me for well over a year
