Online yield descriptions wet or dry?

[Greenjane]

What are websites that describe their pot plants yields refering to? Wet or dry weight?
For example, Cannacopia
Yield is above average (350-400 g/ sq m).

Yield weights are ALWAYS DRY.

High, what strains are you thinking of going with?

Weights should be dry and heavily trimmed. I'm pulling around 330 gpsm with water cured Sativas.

I am planning a outdoor grow of Jumbo Grizzly and Emerald Wonder.

Jumbo grizzly is reported to be 1lb plus and the Emerald is 1/4-1lb.
I am really hoping they are talking about dry weight

Holy shit! If you are water curing your weed and getting 300 grams/oh....

Square meter. There's the rub! Sorry. Got all excited thinking you were pulling over 300 grams per square foot.

Still....

330 grams/square meter using a water cure is an impressive fucking growing regimen and you belong in the Grower's All-Time Yield Hall Of Fame.

Most people don't water cure so they have no idea how much weight is lost in translation when you water cure. I have water cured my grows for years - especially when I have a mind to turn the product into hard candy (I bet I have at least a three month's supply of meds in the freezer as hard candy right now - just waiting to be lit up and enjoyed).

namaste, freezerboy. I'm bowing before you! Way to go!

Aw crap. Now you got me scratching my head. Sq meters threw me too.

22"x29"=638 si.
117.5 grams per 638 si = 0.184 gsi
1 square meter = 1550 si
1550 si x 0.184 gsi = 285.2 gsm water cured.

Water cure-15% of wet haul. Air cure-25% of wet haul.

(X=wet haul) 285=0.15X
X=1900 gsm (wet).
0.25X=475 gsm air cured

OK, obviously I screwed up my numbers but, the theory still stands. Yield numbers should be read as dry and trimmed and, more than likely air-cured. Were the yield numbers wet, they'd be in the 2,000 GSM range.

Hmmm. You gave it hell. Maybe you need to apply for a federal bail-out...
