It provides an estimate for planning and educational purposes. Actual yields vary with genetics, environment, and technique, so the tool returns a range rather than a guarantee.

Yield Estimator & Production Planner

Q: What is a good grams-per-watt (g/W)?

With modern LEDs and a dialed-in environment, many growers see around 1.0–1.5 g/W; advanced setups can exceed this.

Q: How do you convert wet to dry weight?

We assume ~4.5:1 wet-to-dry mass reduction, a common industry heuristic for trimmed flower.

Estimate dry yield, a realistic range, key efficiency metrics (g/W, g/ft²), and your harvest timeline. Prefer help? Talk to a Grow Expert.

Enter your space, lights, plants, and training. We’ll estimate total dry yield and efficiency. Use realistic entries for best results.

Tip: g/W improves with uniform PPFD, good VPD, and stable CO₂. Training (LST/SCROG) increases canopy efficiency.

Frequently Asked Questions

Is this accurate?

It’s a planning tool. Expect a range, not a guarantee. Genetics, environment, and technique drive outcomes.

What is a good grams‑per‑watt (g/W)?

With modern LEDs and a dialed‑in environment, many growers see around 1.0–1.5 g/W; advanced setups can exceed this.

How can I increase yield per ft²?

Improve light uniformity, train for an even canopy, enrich CO₂ if feasible, and maintain optimal VPD by stage.

Does CO₂ always increase yield?

CO₂ enrichment is most effective when light intensity and environmental controls are already optimized.

How do you convert wet to dry weight?

We assume a typical ~4.5:1 wet‑to‑dry reduction for trimmed flower.

The timing of the delivery is extremely expedient, and the beneficial nematodes are very effective. I will definitely purchase from this company again and I highly recommend their beneficial nematodes.

I've never had an issue with any order, ever. That's for myself, and when i've also sent things to other growers. I LOVE the BioNova line so much, thank you for keeping it here!!

I entered without knowing what I needed to complete my setup, and left with gear that suited my needs and confidence in using it. The team described everything simply, answered all my questions without making me feel rushed. Rarely does one find this service model today!

Microscope inspected for fun!

We ordered the triple threat for our raised bed garden of around 21 beds and our greenhouse. We have terrible problem with pests and hate using pesticides so we thought why not.
We applied them all through out and then decided to come in the house with the microscope and see what they looked like and they were Alive and moving well! I cant say that they work yet but we will be ordering again in the spring and reapplying! I believe they have plenty of time to do some damage this year still!
Kentucky zone 6-7 for reference on our growing season.
