At $200.00/pound green 3 pounds = $600.00 + seed (buyer #2)

Any questions????

Not sure about your root, but our area equates to 3-4lbs green to 1 lb of dry.

The early root weighs less and will take more to make a full dry pound. The later root is heavier and therefore can see 3:1 ratios.
With this dry season, it seems like even the larger roots are weighing in lighter than past seasons.

A lot depends on what month and what time of the month that the seng was dug as to how much wet it takes to make a dry lb. Rule of thumb it takes about 3 1/2 to make a lb. of dry. Later in the fall I have seen it drop to just below 3 lbs. Dry seasons make lighter weighing root usually.
