          9 “wet”/freshly picked leaves plus a measurement picture. Now the dry measurements:

Leaf #9: 0.179/0.526 = 34.03% dry matter #8: 41.14% dry #7: 41.33% dry #6: 48.29% dry #5: 28.72% dry #4: 18.06% dry #3: 32.1% dry #2: 22.81% dry #1: 29.25% dry Water in my sample varied between 51.71% to 81.94%. Median of 66.83%, and an average water content of 67.25% Probably could have dried all the leaves a little more. Left them in a dry room for two days. My guess is water content is about 70%, probably slightly more. More tests incoming when I get a nice batch of large/mature fresh leaves, maybe. Actual total fresh = 11.098g Total dried matter product = 3.283g I guess I should make some tea of the leaves i’ve got an report on potency next, eh? I’m working on some growth rate math, but my sample group is... immature. Have a good one everybody!

Thanks for this scientific analysis of dry vs. Wet weight.
