I see all kinds of posts where people are holding these huge fat nugs in front of a whole room containing pounds more in perfect condition. Makes you feel like a failure when you don't get 2 pounds of premo bud out of a 4x4 grow tent.
But that doesn't always happen. Sometimes you just f*ck up.
My first grow in a 34x4 tent, with a 600w LED display and 4 autoflowers growing in soil in big fabric pots yielded....
3 ounces.
One plant was so stunted I got about 1/4 ounce off it, so really got about an ounce per plant except the worst one. I overdid everything to achieve this mighty result. Drowned half my seeds, then overwatered the 4 survivors. Overlit and scorched them. Fed them RO water pH'd with a pen that turned out to be completely inaccurate, through I didn't find that out for two more grows.
Dried them too fast (first plant bone dry in 2 days). Didn't have enough to give proper cure as I was smoking the output after week 1.
All in all, a series of mistakes. In the same tent with the same lighting I got 18 ounces in soil from the second crop. Using photo periods and five plants. (Also took 5 months).
