Using 4 oz jars instead of half pint for PK TEK

If I have 40 4 ounce jars of spawn using pf tek, what should I expect from a dry weight yield?

Thank you sir! Since half pints are 8 ounces I should do the math to equal 20 half pint jars. What does this yield typically??

there is no such thing as a typical yield really...
what strain are you growing? Kind of FC? have you grown before? are all of the jars colonized without contams?
a safe bet for 1/2 pint brf cakes is fairly low, around 2-5 grams a cake prolly... so cut that in roughly half, 1-2.5 grams per cake... maybe 40-100 grams if every cake does its thing well....
do u have a quota or something? :-P

2-4 dry, per flush. Maybe 5 if you have an isolate.

I am growing b plus and Golden Teachers. I have grown before, but I used a kit I brought from a head shop. All jars have no contams. As far as quota goes, I am trying to get the best out of cakes. I will go bulk next using WBS and Damions Elementry Coir tek. By the way, how do you pronounce "coir"? French or is it like saying Choir? LOL White boy here. Magnum, is that yield per cake flush?

pronounced like core
have u considered just crumbling some of those pf cakes into a bulk substrate?
also, consider using hpoo instead of coir... comes pre-mixed with straw (courtesy of the horse) and makes for a much more nutritious substrate... only draw back is its a little harder to pasteurize... but it will up your yields and potency

1. Even spawning to verm is kinda fun. I did that with four 1/4 pints once and it gave me great results.
2. It may increase yields but increase in potency is debatable.

anywhere from 1:1 ratio to a 1:3 ratio is normal (thats spawn:sub), just pasteurize the poop at around 150-160 for atleast 1 full hour, make sure its got the right moisture content and mix the poop and colonized grain together in a monotub, wait for it to colonize and then fruit.... there are more in depth step by steps on how to do this EVERYWHERE on this site already.

You can roll in verm but by spawn I meant break up the cakes into moist verm, treating the verm like a bulk sub.
