29 grams dried Lowryder2 from ome plant

Can't do pics from my iPhone. I read they are tagged with GPS data. When I subtract 10 grams for stems and then consider 80% drop in weight dries it will yield about 70-80 grams! This is only 0.3 gm per watt so I can still do better if I employ some low stress training next grow and get those lower nuggets to tighten up.

i will try to post pics. this is almost dried buds off the one Lowryder2 plant. I think I have nailed how to grow a big one after about 5 grows. I started using nute when they showed sex and the bottom fan leaves started to yellow. I used Floro Nova hydro nutes at 1/4 strength to begin with and jacked it up in later growth. The water was Ph'd, but I think the key to a big lowryder is the lights I ran mine 24/7 for the first month because it was so cold in the attic, but went 18/6 when it warned up. The key is to not insult them early with nute burn or heat stress and keep the HPS about a foot above the plant until it shows sex. This makes it stretch and that is the key. Otherwise you just get a 15 inch tall runt. Mine was about 24 inches tall after tying her down. I also accidentally topped her at about 5 weeks, by burning her on the light which helped by turning the main cola into 4 separate huge buds.
