Auto bomb

So hey guys first post in the auto section, i have 1 auto bomb plant, i ordered them before i really knew anything about autos. Anyhow i ended up killing the 4 plants so i have one left, and i just noticed the first pairs of white hairs growing, shes 30days old. Anyhow im wondering whats a conservative estimate on yield size. I know on their site(bombs site) it says:
Yield: Medium (250-400g/m² -
30g-60g/plant)

Can anyone explain what this means? (ie. is this dry weight?/Whats "m² -" mean?


One other question i have is, is the listed "expected time till harvest" date usually accurate? Like on the bombs site it says
indoor flowering: 65+ days from seed. Or are most of the expectations for autos inflated? Because on one hand in most books they says Ruderalis strains are low yielding, and less potent strains. But everything online says they have improved alot. so im just currious, i would think the seed banks would over state the yield, and under estimate the time, just to sell their brand... BUT i could be very wrong that why im asking. Thanks in advance, if you guys wanna see the plant check my grow thread.

flowering times are breeders claims provided optimal conditions. 250-400g m2 might be a sog style under 600w in a metre squared area dry weight. 30-60g is breeders claim/estimate dry weight per plant. :)

the breeders time isn't really when it's finished you can harvest and it will get you stoned but for optimal yield/potency you have to go about 4wks over. as far as total yield there are too many variables but there are people that get 3+oz/plant

Thanks for the reply, Yeah i wasnt planning on using the "breeders time" to determine when to harvest, but now that you mention it i should probably ask, with autos, you can go by the look and color of the trichomes to see when its ready to harvest, the same way you would with a photo period plant right?

Hey buddy, thanks for the reply. I figure i wouldnt be getting what they listed, but im hoping i can get at least 14grams, maybe help pay for all those plants i killed! lol

m2 is square foot. The "yield" is wet weight...
Hmm that sucks then... I really wish all the seedbanks were more clear with their yield numbers... I mean some site have autos showing 600gs per plant.... That seems like a typo or just flat out lie, but i might be wrong...

I never understood the seed banks yield claim either. Makes more sense knowing its wet weight
Good questions.

Seriously 4 weeks past the seed banks description??? Wow

yeah, it's dumb that they use wet weight who cares what it weighs wet, I can't smoke wet bud.
