Water weight loss

Whats is a percent to expect in loss when hanging your buds to dry from water weight? If that makes since...

70%-75%

That leaves 10-15% water content and 10% plant dried plant left and 15%-20% of that total should be thc rich oil.

100grams dried to 25grams refined down to 4grams of hash less if you concentrate the process.

No where near accurate but maybe a good guess, fucking shit yeilds for a lot of work really.

So if i have a starting bud weight of say 23.8 your saying thats only going to be a 5.75g bud.....crazy

Give or take, if its just watered it will be about that but if the soil is bone dry at harvest it will have less water content so maybe an extra gram or two on the total dry weight.

Spare a thought for some of the dried leaf herb producers such as basil, leaves hold an even lower water content and they need their herbs at a much lower content for storage. Whole field of basil probably weighs very little once processed. Bigger market in fresh herbs trust me.

My 23.8 is down to 12 already

But in all seriousness, that’s why it’s worth it to grow multiple plants. I never harvest anything less than 11oz, dry weight. 3-4 months of growing to get anything less ain’t worth it to me. I have a perpetual system, every 3-4 months im pumping out 11oz or more, and I never grow more than 2 plants a time because I only have a 3x3x7. It’s all medicine for my wife, so I don’t really need more than that anyway.
