How to make a list of averages by label

Copper Contributor

I track crop steering data at a legal medical cannabis grow in MD.  Using Excel in Office 365. I have made a spreadsheet for one of our facilities that is laid out like a table map of the room.  Each "table" is a block of 3 cells. The top one is a drop down menu of the strain names being grown, to label what strain is on that table. The 2 cells below show the VPD and DLI respectively that is read on that table.  These numbers are entered by hand after being calculated in a column next to the main table map chart.

 

I was trying to put a quick reference next to the table map that populates from the data in the table map.  It has a column that shows the number of tables that contain each strain.  Did this with a "COUNTIF" formula.  I would like the 2 columns following that one in the chart to show the average of VPD by strain and average of DLI by strain.

 

I am not sure how to get Excel to look at the table map as an array of 3-cell stacks, essentially making a list of the cells that contain like strain names and taking separate averages of the cells one cell below the one with text in it and 2 cells below the one with text in it.  Does that make any sense at all?

To which I'd have to reply, "Not very much."

 

If you're able to do so, I'd highly recommend attaching a copy of the spreadsheet/workbook. If you can't do it here to the public board, use the Private Message capability to send it to me privately (click on my user name and select "Message").
