 PF tek yield, B+ Strain

Hypothetical situation: lets say someone uses the PF tek method, using 6 cakes, with the B+ strain and decent to optimal conditions for growth. All of the cakes fruit, have several flushes, and you harvest them. Can anyone give me an approximation of how much total weight you'd be dealing with after the harvest? A broad range would be fine. I saw a kit for sale on a website that was much smaller compared to the amount of cakes I described above, and it said that it would yield anywhere from 250-400 grams. I'm a little skeptical to believe an entrepreneur though, as they commonly display outrageous information in order to attract possible customers. I know this is a really broad question, but any advice would be appreciated.

With half pint cakes you can expect 3-7 grams dry per cake 2-3 flushes
Full pint cakes I get 9-15 grams adverage per cake with 2-3 flushes
When I was using half pint jars. I could count on 1 dry OZ from every 12 jars. Sometimes I got more and sometimes a little less.
So if I was looking for a Pound of dry shrooms. I had at least 96 half pint jars at any one time. With another 50 or so cakes in the fruitng chambers. But then I learned about bulk growing.
Basicly 12 jars birth every 3 weeks will give you about 1 1/2 - 2 OZ's a month. That gives you 36 cakes fruiting at any givin time after you have been growing for a couple months. Of course that is assuming you are getting 95% good births.

Keep in mind that 250-400 grams is a wet weight. Mushrooms are 92% water, so after they are cracker dry, that 250-400 grams wet, becomes 20-32 grams cracker dry.
If you get 3-7 grams dry per cake per flush, even at the low end of 3 grams dry per flush, you would end up with 3*3*6=54grams dry.

In dry weight, what do you folks suppose would be a moderate to strong dose (in grams)? I'm just trying to get an idea of just how much one would have to grow in order to have an ample supply for themself. Say, a moderate to strong dose, once a week (in the span of a month), how much would you have to produce to fill that criteria?

An eighth a week would be a half a month. If you had 2 groups of 6 cakes that were staggered, that would more than take care of your needs.

3.5g dry always gets me some intense visuals and a great body high. More than that has been pushing the 'I took too much'. Although, Doing 3.5g dry, then another 1g 2hrs later is pretty nice too for a longer trip. I woulnd't personally do more than 4g at once. But everyone is different. 2g gives you a really nice body high w/o the visuals.
