Just started 2 more late bins today thinking about our conversation. I had the empty bins and extra food and thought "I am not wasting this"..so a few scoops of worms and compost and food...done. So that puts me at an even 40.
Stanks Go Perpetual In 2018!

- #4,942
As stated yesterday, I ran the number on all the harvests up to this point. I want something that will relate the yield to how long you grew it as well as what size pot it was grown in. So I stole @Graytail s measurement of grams per day for each plant as well as my own grams per gallon of soil.
So here are the numbers......starting from the beginning of the perpetual.
Nukehead #1 - 101 grams, 143 days from seed (83 in veg, 60 in flower), 7 gallon smart pot = .71 grams per day and 14.43 grams per gallon
Nukehead #2 - 86 grams, 143 days from seed (70 in veg, 73 in flower), 7 gallon smart pot = .60 grams per day and 12.28 grams per gallon
Stankberry - 153 grams, 108 days from seed (46 in veg, 62 in flower), 5 gallon smart pot = 1.41 grams per day and 30.6 grams per gallon
Jack Herer Auto - 170 grams, 105 days from seed, 8 gallon smart pot = 1.62 grams per day and 21.25 grams per gallon
Blue Dream - 182 grams, 131 days from seed (71 in veg, 60 in flower), 10 gallon smart pot = 1.39 grams per day and 18.2 grams per gallon
Lil Blue - 65 grams, 82 days from clone rooting (30 in veg, 52 in flower), 3 gallon hard pot = .79 grams per day and 21.67 grams per gallon
Northern Lights - 454 grams, 141 days from seed (77 in veg, 64 in flower), 15 gallon smart pot = 3.22 grams per day and 30.26 grams per gallon
Some interesting numbers there. Not sure how I am going to use the data to interpret what its telling me but I will track this for a while. I figure there is a way to find out the optimal veg time and pot size to maximize the yield. Also shows me what strains really love my Stank Soil. I think these measurements paint a little better picture than just yield or yield per square foot or meter. Thoughts??

I'm lucky if I remember to label the jars!
Defrosting a pork belly for the smoker tomorrow. Thinking coffee/honey/black pepper rub.
I got dinged (again) by TE for "non relevant" photos so you'll have to use your imagination....

I figure over time I should have a good idea of the best size pot to use in conjunction with veg times to plan things out. I won't track the strains I am growing for seeds though (at least not for factoring in....I may track it to see how different the numbers are.

I just post them anyways and let them take them down after ya'll have seen them. LOL, I know Teddy, Stank is a bad boy.

Im the same. Im notorious for not labeling shit. Jars, pots, whatever. lol
Check out those numbers for the shorter veg times, VanStank. That's where the difference gets shocking. It makes a guy wonder how much value there is in vegging and training. 
For instance, I'll have a bunch of clones coming up and they're Old by now.
I've thought about only using bloom time ...

I use a trick for remembering the strain and the date I dropped it (otherwise I look here in my journal!)...I cut up a quart deli container and sharpie the rings with the info...also helps that it is part of the law here in Maine that you have to have your plants tagged.

Yeah I am not sure about it's viability on clones. I tend to try to keep clones smaller and slow them down. Plus I like taking them a little bit into flower so they have to reveg. I think measuring from seeds is better for me. Plus on clones I am usually making seeds.
I think there has to be some sort of correlation to yield and veg time....i just need to find the best for me. I think the 60-70 days from seeds is about perfect for my perpetual.

Thanks bro. That's a great ideaI use a trick for remembering the strain and the date I dropped it (otherwise I look here in my journal!)...I cut up a quart deli container and sharpie the rings with the info...also helps that it is part of the law here in Maine that you have to have your plants tagged.
I'm chewing on that...I need to find a window
What's your prediction on the Stanks? Mid-October?

The ATF will likely go the longest.......so think 10-11 weeks from when it starts flowering.
The Stankberry was roughly 8 weeks from hairs showing.
I imagine the DTF will be about 9 weeks but could go longer (she is flowering now right??)
And no clue on the Kushberry Thunderfuck.....but I thinking 8-10 weeks .......so ummm....I guess you would need to figure out where the average for that will be once they are all flowering.

Sounds like early mid Oct.
Those are some interesting numbers Van. I've paid attention to Gray doing that and I always thought about doing it but I think just doing it for flowering would be better if you want reliable data. Like you said you can keep a clone in a small container for 5 weeks or so then put it into your veg size container for another couple months so that artificially will lower your per day gram reading than if you just put into the veg container right away. It's still pretty cool to see the differences in strains you got there.
