i have found you multiply the weight times .22 and you will be very close
623 x.22=137.06 .
i do not leave on stems so i am usually with in 5 % if i take the time to wet weigh the crop with this formula.i did not come up with the formula i read it online some where but have used it for years now.

Final Report 5 ounces ,, from 104 watts of cree cob,, ROCK ON,, i am so happy, I feel like I won the lottery
you were VERY CLOSE my friend, final weigh in, 3 days hanging, 3 days in brown paper sacks, now a final trim, you can see the stems that came out before jarring, scale is shown zero ed , then with stems, and then just buds,, and then jarred, I used 6 jars to keep them loose, it will take me a very long time to smoke 5 ounces, plus I get to make butter,, Fun

to get the best taste ,trim off all the leaves that are still on the buds or in a few weeks you can probably just shake the jars and most of them will crumble to the bottom.that is a great crop!i just assembled 4 cxb 3590 3500 to 10 inch by 5 inch heatsink usa with 50 watt driver per cob.only 16 more to go then i will start my new test project.congrats on the grow!

1.37 gram per watt!hope i can do as good soon with 1000 watts!i can get around .9 to 1.1 gr per watt with my 2 600 hps bare bulb stacked but want to get more efficient with less heat to handle and no risk of getting burned on the bare bulbs.

That's crazy good for soil! My gpw won't be as good. It's my first attempt at soil in a long time. I tried to go 8 weeks without flushing due to scrog, got some salt buildup around the end of week 6 with the third application of fert granules, leaves were curling down a bit. Didn't see any growth past that point just ripening. I'm going to try the same thing and skip the last feeding. Trouble is, it's Super Critical this time around, very finicky plant... most finicky plant I've ever grown in hydro. Can you describe your feed schedule or whether you fed at all... or anything else that might help a soil grower out?

Fantastic job man! Hey would you mind sharing what bin your cobs are?
I'm thinking of building one along the same lines.
here are the cobs I am using http://www.mouser.com/ProductDetail/Cree-Inc/CXA3070-0000-000N00Z230F/?qs=sGAEpiMZZMu4Prknbu83y0bObCPMgyC/l6eQby5L/DGQDb9TViwpOg==

here are the drivers I am using http://www.jameco.com/1/1/45675-lpc-60-1400-lpc-60-60w-single-output-switching-led-power-supply.html

here are the cob holders I am using

Hey buddy, take a look at my grow thread for this one,, I had lots of bumps in the road, including some nitrogen tox due to adding hydro nutes / salts to the fox farms ocean forrest,, the tips burned and I got the "claw", I also feel my growth was stunted just as you said, So it really makes me wonder what could have been,, I am still very happy,, shoot the buds are in jars and they smoke good
here is the thread,, its short, but it answers all your questions
https://www.rollitup.org/t/the-foxs-second-led-grow-under-cxa3070.878562/

Edit: I have got to say, I wish I would have used just straight tap water for the whole grow, problems started in FFOF when I started adding nutes, I know that sounds crazy, and my nutes were super light at 350ppm and it still pushed it into lock out, and like you I was not set up to flush,

real nice for 100w, the COBs are knocking it out of the park
the 3070's are the old tech now with cobs, but they still work really well, infact the cxa3070's are only 34 dollars now, I have even seen them for 21 dollars on sale, so a person can build a cob light now for really cheap, even cheaper than blurple lights are selling for,
I am convinced beyond doubt that cobs are the best growing light solution out there now, and I am watching other guys who have thier grows dialed in really pull in monster crops using low watts

You can get cxa's for 24 from Jerry at kingbrite
Bonjour!
Which cxa's? Bin?
@Tim Fox Is it already dry?...in 6 days?
Upside down than paper bag (the one I can see on tv in your supermarket when someome put your items in!?!? We only have plastic bag...) 3 days/3 days...or it is only you?
Most of french growers let the plant upside down till the branch crack...about 6/15 days (it depend on season!)then in jars and I have to open it every day for 10mn during a week, then wait 2 month (2years is better...it is like a good wine...!)
Or do I do that for nothing since years!?!?!?
Have a great day ★
