Average yield for autoflowering plants

AthelR · Sep 7, 2020

I read all sorts of claims for massive yields from autoflowering plants.
I am not convinced...
We have got an average 25 grams (just under an ounce) of dry bud per autoflowering plant.
On another forum the discussion seemed to suggest that was about average, with 40 grams (1.5 ounces) being impressive.

I would love you to comment if you have grown autoflowering plants and are willing to share what weight of dry bud you got per plant.

ps please also say where you grew them - ours were grown in the UK and we put them out on the few sunny days we had, and under lights for most of the time. I expect you can get higher yields in California

In southern u.s.a. Nuthin but autos here, in a 2x4 tent usually 5-6 plants under 2- 240 watt kingbrites dimmed - pure blend pro grow for the entire cycle. I average 60-80 dried grams a plant with my record being 122 grams so far-

You need some bamboo stakes and soft wire tie to hold up those big buds.

Thanks Moshmen
I think we could use more nutrient. It has been difficult with our present set up to keep the temperature up to about 28/29C. It's been averaging 23C. DO you think that would make a big difference?

Yes - I run pretty warm 28-30 degrees and fit simplicity reasons I just try to run around 50 rh thru out my grow - 23 is pretty cold for autos imo

I started growing in 2016 and the only constant has been premium lights. From 1-2 oz/plant. I've listened, learned
and refined my pots, medium, training techniques, nutrients and watering where I consistently harvest 6-8 ounces/ plant
with 0 defects, which is fine by me. You gotta know more than the dog before you can teach him to bark.
Organic soil auto grower and an old.
