completely and utterly dependent on the strain
more bud = weight?
sativas are usually tall and stretchy and airy
indicas are short and stout and dense
depends on your growing situations
Ideas on how much yeid if started 12/12

2 weeks it just a bit to early but hey at least he got some bud. I herd it better to wait for it to mature so can can produce its full potential.

there are so many variables on how much you can get off it, depends on your set up and nutes and the strain. the harder you want a certain amount, the more likely you'll get less coz it's easy to over nute and mess with em too much if you're willing it to a certain amount. just grow the best you know how to and hope for the best, if you're good to her she should be good to you! lol
It was my first test grow and i was moving within 10 weeks when i started it and it was just for fun.
Cant complain when you learn a whole lot more than weeds worth. I think it was def. worth it for my situation. Next grow will be vegged at least 6 weeks.

i hate this "better than thou" attitude alot of people have on this site
i had to pull an outdoor plant early because of security so i know how you feel
don't mind him

Thanks i expected that there really is no way to tell. I hope its all worth it in the end. One feminized seed and Two seeds that where supose to be from so alright mids but ended up with two types one indica and one sativa and the feminized seed is a mix of both. lol Im going to veg one more week witch would be week 6 cant wait to figure out there sex. =)

i'm too high to figure out who said that nasty thing but whoever they said it to, don't sweat it lol those who express their opinion in form of insult are insecure and do this to try to amplify their brilliance because they're actually terrified they're not brilliant at all.

i think you are starting to get to the point of paranoia because i have read and re-read and i see no nasty things ... maybe the berlin dude
smoke some more and chill out yo

Someone was talking about veging a 2 week old plant and someone replied saying that was a dum ass move. I think thats what she was talking about. It ant no big deal every where you go there will always be some asshole being a prick. It shows you who is low and you dont want to be around.

i was calling the berlin dude a dude ... not you
we are not mind readers .. we are post readers
and your post equates to much more than being nice to the guy ... you should re-read it
now THAT is being a "bit of a dick"

oh goodness me. you yourself quoted the thing, and said something about hating how people post with a superior attitude or something to that effect, the way in which you suggested i was not making sense was itself derogatory, something you had but a few posts earlier said that you dislike in others. as i stated originally, i had my high on so my deepest apologies for not being more specific in my reference to "nasty things" but honestly i assumed, as you had just posted it yourself, that it would be understood without further explanation.

I dont think it is so much a better than thou attitude but instead more one of if you are going to take the risk you take when growing why take that risk for so little in return? I dont mean everyone has to have large grow room jam packed with plants and banks of 1000-watt lights. I just mean it is only smart to do all you can to maximize what you have to work with instead of doing it half heatedly.
　
If someone can only grow two plants thats cool and the gang but they should find what will maximize the yield from those two plants rather than minimize it. Thats common sense.

That is only so true.
　
In an indoor growing situation or when growing a strain outdoor in a region that is totally different that what would be natural to it then what you said is true.
　
You said; "sativas are usually tall and stretchy and airy." That is true if grown indoors or in areas farther north or farther south than their native regions. No grower can duplicate equatorial conditions indoors. No indoor grower can duplicate the conditions in Vietnam or Thailand or Panama for example.
　
If you have ever seen pure sativas that were grown in their natural habitats you would have a somewhat differing belief about sativas. Yes they would still be tall, wrongly called "stretchy" by many, but when grown where Mother Nature intended them to be grown their buds will not be fluffy and instead be dense. They are considered to produce less than indica strains will. Again indoors that is likely to be the norm but when grown where Mother Nature created them where they can grow to 12, 15 or maybe 20 feet tall they will produce like mad. There may be a good bit of distance between budsites but you can fit a lot of budsites on a 12, 15 or 20 foot tall plants even if those budsites are not tightly packed together.
　
When talking about growing in the northern hemisphere regardless of what any grower or breeder claims you really cannot grow outdoors north of the Rio Grande and end up with something that would be as potent or more potent than if grown farther south. The length of days, the angle of the sunlight and to a much lesser degree the slightly different amount of distance for the light rays to travel all combine to make it impossible to do it. Optimal conditions just do not exist. When growing indoors the conditions will be even less optimal.
　
What it all comes down to is beliefs are only based in what happens when various strains are grown indoors our outdoors under less than optimal conditions rather than when grown under actual optimal conditions. Since it seems that most growers that hang around sites like this do grow indoors the beliefs are valid enough but not completely unless it is added that certain results are only what they are because of the conditions the strain(s) were grown under were not optimal for their genetic makeup.
　
A goodly number of times I have mentioned Dalat and how my brother in law filled two very large stereo speakers with Dalat, along with a good sized bag of Dalat seeds, when he finished his second tour of duty in Vietnam and shipped them home. The buds were large thick heavy dense buds but even though he then attended college and earned a degree in botany nothing he could do, indoors or outdoors, resulted in the same sort of production as what was grown in Vietnam. The buds were less dense and production was not massive but that was not in any way due to it being a sativa. It was strictly because it was impossible to recreate the conditions the strain was genetically coded to flourish in.
　
So when someone says that a sativa will be taller and have fewer budsites and less dense buds they are at least partially accurate but they will not be totally accurate unless they then say why, and that why is only because of how and where the sativa strains are grown.
At least in your case you did say; "depends on your growing situations" but unless someone lives in a region where a sativa strain can truly flourish and fully develop as its genetic coding intended it to nothing anyone will ever be able to do will be able to reproduce the needed optimal conditions or overcome the lack of optimal conditions.
　
They can still produce some darn potent smoke but just as in the case of my brother in law they will never be able to match or equal what the strain would be and do and produce if grown under true optimal conditions and their results will prove that and also perpetuate the myths about sativas.

Nice long reply thanks. Im going to put up the other pics i have of one of my sativas. Keep on guessing.

No. Why you saying that?
