Flowering time and yields

[tinytoon]

Quick question I should have thought of about a year ago when I started my journey down the growers path. When shopping seed banks they list flowering time and also yields, my 2 part question is if a yield is listed as 750-800g m2 is that suppose to be per plant and also wtf does the m2 stand for? For flowering times is that listed as an average? The seeds we bought are listed as 8/9 weeks but if judge time by looking at Trichs then our flowering time is 6 weeks and that includes 1 week of flushing with plain water just before chopping. Any insight to help us understand this just a lil better would be great!!!

1. 700-800g m2? = per square meter (grown by experts under ideal conditions)..your mileage may vary.

2. 8-9 weeks flowering time? = grown by experts under ideal conditions.

Yes. Their estimates are usually pretty close, from what I've heard, but it is just an estimate. I'm growing an "8 week" strain but 6 weeks into flowering and seeing all those clear trichomes, I think I may be in a while longer. You can, of course, harvest when you please but viewing the trichs for milky/amber gives you a better idea of when it is actually ready.
