weight and mold question here...

[chillin247]

so i recently chopped down my 60 plants and when i did, it came out to approximately 4 big tupperware containers trimmed
i didnt have a place to put it so i had to hide it in my garage which is obviously not smart
started molding a little but it looks okay
its completely dried now and im going to cure it for a month or so

question, is there anyway to get the mold off the buds?
also, i know most of the weight is water weight, but i went from 4 full containers to a little over 2 containers
is it normal for it to physically shrink that much?
its weird because i only pulled around 19 Os from 60 plants

let mek now what you guys think
thanks

Just get rid of the moldy buds.

Yes, thats completely normal for the buds to shrink while drying. About 75% in wieght is water. 19 Oz does seem low for 60 plants... Maybe you didnt grow them well...

Growing 60 plants you should have done a little more reading on the harvesting/curing part (the most important part in my opinion).

They need to be hung dried before being cured.. which should be done with glass jars and not tupperware which affects the taste/smell in my opinion.

about the only thing you can do with that is make honey oil with 99% iso rubbing alchol that will kill all mold and still leave you with a smokable safe product smoking moldly weed can fuck you up bad let me know if you need directions to make the oil I have a reciepe

Take moldy buds and microwave them for 15 seconds intervals about 5 times a day...over several days...if you insist on smoking them.

And, if you do smoke them, use only a water bong.

But, you MUST isolate them.

As for your yeild...yea, its low but it all depends on how long you vegged, the strain and the power of light you used when flowering. Under proper scenarios, you should get at least 6 ounces per plant...up to 12.

Sounds like a lighting problem..or you didnt veg long enuff.
