You should be pleased. That looks top notch!

29 pint sized mason jars! Holy freaking shit dude, that's going to require a pantry re-organization to store that amount lol.
Hell of a harvest, I'm seriously impressed/jealous with that. What was your dry weight, and what was your drying process? I have been growing autos for about 1.5 years now, and haven't been able to get more than 3/4 of an ounce per plant. You must have genetic green thumbs?

Keep in mind each jar is ~1/2 full for some airspace, but still pretty good. I didn't take a measurement wet v dry. Rookie mistake. I hung individual branches in the dark at 60/60 for 14 days in my spare bedroom. My sons are in college, so sorry boys! Then I transferred to brown paper bags to sweat for about 72 hours. The stems had some snap to them at that point so I jarred them. Intend to cure/burp for at about 2 months but some will go longer. If I stay with this plan, it should be a very Merry Christmas! I dry-trimmed most of it with someone who has some solid experience which was a great learning experience. My reading indicates that the yield on photoperiod plants far exceeds that of autoflower, so that may explain the delta in our yields. Another friend who is a grower in the cannabis industry recommended I keep the remainder in brown bags for a bit and use the balance to make RHO, but I may just enjoy the ride on this batch and get more creative when I harvest my outdoor plants around Columbus Day though we are currently experiencing an extended period of rain, so I am concerned about bud rot but monitoring those very closely. I've been growing a variety of vegetables for many years so decided to apply those learnings here. I chose the Amherst Diesel as I like sativas mainly. I'm going to take the trim and make a few batches of cannabutter for a friend in treatment for lung cancer as she is experiencing nausea and lack of appetite due to her treatment.

Nice work Frankie!

Yeah I ask because I suck at the drying process, I'm far too impatient. Always running out when I'm in the middle of drying, then it's a choice between expensive dispo weed, or my own weed that may not taste the best lol. I've got 2x gorillia cookies, and 1x Poison Berry autos flowering now, I want to do a decent drying this time. So any tips I can pick up I'll take on board.

Utilizing weed for your friend, is a good thing, so good on ya for that. I've made cannabutter myself, knocks me right out. I lean more to the Sativa's myself too, I like the head high rather than the coma Indica's put me in. Though I'm liking the balanced hybrids lately too I cannot lie. Grew some Bruce Banner not so long ago and absolutely loved it.

I had to build a grow box to try and get a perpetual harvest going, I've got another Poison Berry at seedling stage in that, probably at 3 weeks to a month behind the other 3.

With having one tent I should have went with a photo and got a decent yield, instead of multiple autos. I stupidly assumed autos were easier because they're quicker. But that's the problem, they're too damn quick. With not a lot of time to fix any issues that may arise either.

Ya live and learn lol.

It's time for you to buy a few food grade buckets. Burping 20+ jars a day for a couple weeks is not something I ever want to do again

Have you grown Photoperiods? They will yield more then Autos.
My latest harvest of Photoperiods, dried and trimmed, yielded 19.77 ounces from 3 plants.

If you want to stay with Autos, I would look at the genetics you're growing or your growing/training process to see if you can improve on those yields.
I've always been a photoperiod grower, just recently started growing Autos.
I've only harvested 1 Auto, not dry yet but there's at least 2 ounces on the plant and it's not more then 15 inches tall.
I even experienced nutrient lock out and still managed to yield decently for an Auto IMO.

I have 3 Blackberry Autos I just started a week ago, guess we will see how I do with those.

Ever since I started using Grove Bags, I'll never go back to jars. Saves so much time!
They even started selling vacuum sealing rolls now.

I didn't even realize that was an option!

Great job I’m jealous got few gram left to last 3 weeks until harvest and dry time

How much you put in a bucket at once sir? Do you just shake and burp the bucket?
