Has anyone ever measured the root weight of a finished plant?

I get this feeling that most of these companies realized a while back that they can make a killing selling the same stuff in different bottles. if u look at at nutrient company feed chart there are more products to use then we as humans consume to stay alive and grow ROFL. Makes u wonder if all that is really necessary or its just a way for them to squeeze an extra buck out of the consumer. or maybe they just removed xyz nutrient from the bottle and made that its own bottle and called it PK BOOOOOOOSTTTT! omg u need this boost cause we removed it from our regular feed lol.

that in a nutshell is the Advanced Nutrients business model. lol.

I dont know how much it weighs, but with a Super Silver Haze mother/Clone we have, with a 2 months ( 70 days ) Veg 24 hours a day from clone, .... in 5 Gallons Promix BX under 1000w Hortilux HPS, and then Transplanted flowered in 20 Gallons. 15 more gallons, as it was already in 5 gallons, and yes, I do fill the container with Medium as full as possible.
After 63-70 days flowering, the plant with grow 4x-5x its size, and the plant will be completely root bound in a 20 gallon container. If the medium is dry,,,,,,, I can lift the complete rootball and the 20 gallons of Promix BX out of the container in 1 piece.

We get 20oz-24oz from such a plant under 1000w Hortilux HPS. Also no topping, but the plants are bent over, and made to grow into a hedge. They are not allowed to grow vertically, and early on the side branching is also trained, and the plant will soon grow correctly from the secondaries on their own, though.
