go -20% and you should be just about right. There has not been enough data collected to accurately compare the measurements to actual weight

the new chart for BG should help correct that light thing, then it back to the grower and genetics ! LOL

I believe it to be a little of both Donkin. Some have been grown on the side while others are grown on the blossom, resulting in two completely different measurements.

I am not buying the stem up vs parallel reason. You are basically measuring volume and it should not change.

There was a 10” difference when we measured my 189.5. Blossom down vs on its side. It actually grew kind of at 45deg. angle. The others we measured were not as much but the were a little different.

Thank you Mike. I usually don't make statements that can't be bought.
