No matter whether you are a pro or an amateur, reedmaking is a bit of witchcraft. When I first learned, basically all my reeds were not fit for consumption, and I would beg for a reed from my teacher for a performance. It was probably about 3 years by the time I felt like I wasn't spending 90% of my time making reeds (that's like 5+ hours a day doing oboe-related stuff). I still have many duds, but eventually I accumulated enough that I have been very lax in reedmaking and still have playable reeds.
It is also a relief to get across the skill barrier to be able to play "bad" reeds. I am much more tolerant of bad reeds compared to when I first started making reeds.
Good luck!
