First Grow, 14-21 days from harvest, wondering about potential yield?

The attached photo shows basically a little more than half of my 5x5x80" tent. Couple weeks from harvest. This photo is from today, day 51 since flipping to 12/12. These are Pineapple Upside Down Cake from seed. The strain is very dense - these buds are close to needing support. So can anyone with growing experience give me even a vague idea of what kind of harvest I might be looking at? (for the sake of the question, let's assume I dry and trim and cure properly) There is another 35-40% of the tent not showing in the picture that looks just like this. In my wildest dreams since I started this I have been thinking if I ended up with a pound of dried, trimmed and cured weed that would be pretty good for a first ever grow and six plants. Now looking at it I'm thinking it may be possible to exceed a pound from this grow. These plants are about 4.5 feet tall (more like 6.5/7 if I had not trained them), in 8 gallon pots, with no insect, mold, airflow, ph, humidity, temperature, nute burn or light burn issues. Any thoughts or opinions would be greatly appreciated. Thanks.

I would guess at least a pound when dry but let me ask you this.......how many are in there? And expect to lose 40% volume of weight during drying. Just my 2cent opinion maybe just 1/2 cent todays worth how i'm being received LOL excellent grow love the strain:D
 
Thanks! There are six plants in there. This is Surfr Seeds version of PUC, ie, Golden Pineapple x Wedding Cake F2. It is NOT Humboldt's version, ie, Pineapple Trainwreck x Cookie Monster. Which one were you referring to? I'd love to hear any experience/tips/advice you may have regarding the Surfr Seeds version.
 
Thanks! Yeah it's funny you say that. I know several growers and people who work for growers, and they all said something similar. I was looking at the lower part of the grow today where there are just seemingly trillions of popcorn buds, but big ones, significant, like the size of golf balls or bigger. And I have around three weeks left yet, today is day 52 and I'm looking at around 70. I'm flying solo, and I'm in a wheelchair, so I'm harvesting branch by branch and trimming the same way. Lmao! I expect it to take forever but hopefully it will be a labor of love!
 
Just make sure you set aside an entire day for it. The popcorn buds are good for making hash or edibles. And don’t forget gloves lol
 
Wow much kudos to you and the efforts your putting in. Excellent way of trimming also, i prefer with all my grows to wet trim. And now with humidity going up it's really important during hanging to allow air to get to those buds. My last harvest came in earlier than what the strain said it would like by at least a week and came on quickly. I make butter with those smaller lower branch buds. I just save all of it in freezer grab amount i need and toss back into freezer it's green bud. Have fun we all will be harvesting outdoor soon lots to do. :)
