a 1 gram dry shroom is petty big, at least IME, that means its prob more than 10 grams wet, which would be a fairly big shroom...the average size for me would be about half a gram, id say

I would have to agree with Boomer q, and it's hard to say with the average. I would say about half a gram as well maybe a tiny bit less.

Depends on size and stem thickness.
Sometimes you get monster caps, with hollow stems...
Sometimes you get little arse kickers wit nickel sized caps and thin stems....
I used to go for the larger sizes in my grows, but I have learned to appreciate the little guys more.
If you're going for weight, then grow some EQ on Hpoo. Some of the biggest I have ever seen are from this strain and substrate.

Great little piece for taking cores for cloning.....
They are actually for muscle biopsy work, but if you can get one, they are great for taking tissue samples.

Between 1/4oz to 1/2oz dry weight assuming half pint cakes.
Dunk and roll to maximize yield.

once you dry them, you may end up with 1/4 to 1/2. If you dunk and roll, probably more.

Well I took 2 grams once and had a good time. Things were warpped but I dont think less than that would be worth it. If you had 7 grams I'd take two 2 gram trips and one 3 gram.

Thats just me though.

Probably the two biggest factors as to how much one will yeild are substrate, and strain (assuming environmental conditions are met).

SWIM usually sees 1/4 to 1/2 oz off of a single cake in 3-5 flushes...

Make sure to dunk those bad boys, as well as mist and fan as often as possible. This will help to bring up you total yeild.

Mushrooms are about 90% water, so when u dry them they are about 10% of there weight dry.

So a 10 gram fruit would dry to about 1 gram.

As for potency, so far on all my pf tek grows from EQ and Lipa Yai i have found pretty potent, from 2 flushes (tend to just do 2 flushes then start new cakes).

If the nuitrents are availibe, potency shouldnt be an issue, the only factor really is genetics when growing from multispore, its posible that from multispore u could have a week strain, but so far i havnt experienced this and have heard that its rare but does happen.

If you get the chance, grow some lipa yai, have found that they are really potent, i have ate 10 grams fresh twice, had a great time, nice visuals great body buzz. Though i may be a little sensitive to shrooms.

I have found that EQ are quite potent too, im gonna be starting some brazilian soon and will be comparing them. Also have some Koh Samia which are supposed to be pretty potent.

So far, from my grows, around 20 grams each flush with the biggest being 48 grams from 1 flush.

Im sure i can get a little more once i perfect my FC and lighting. :smile:
