Hi i have been growing for a few years but recently moved to the great state of Colorado yayayay

So my question is .... Is thies how I can get atleast 5 ounce to a pound plant????

I'm planting in ground in 3/3/3 feet holes adding plenty of perlite peat moss and sand and some compost from me compost pile whith pig manure grass food .. Mixed equally in the hole with native soil

My nutrition line I will be using the advance nut line

Now I plan on starting them indoors a couple weeks early

So will I get atleast 5 plus onces off each plan thanks

But in all honesty there's no way for anyone to tell you how much you will get, you haven't said strain names for one.

20161025_105456.jpg received_10207998759620671.jpeg Mate the best way to get good yield is to have a good rich soil for strong vegetative growth.
Topping will give you more colas and lst tying those gals down when in flower will allow more light into yer canopy and give you a bigger yeild as well, also give good flower nutes high in P and K during flower for best results. I don't need the strain to tell you that much and I can guarantee you will get a bigger yield. Best of luck

It's a bit off topic, he asked how to get bigger yields there was nothing about strains in the posters query.he only wanted to know about how to get bigger plants.

I agree in that it definitely starts with good genetics. Some strains are just designed to have much higher yields than others. Once you are set with quality clones, the rest is up to the grower.

I'd suggest going using fabric pots instead of growing straight into the ground. It helps a lot when it comes to root production and maintaining proper PH levels and such. All of which are crucial in determining your yield.

Another way to increase yield would be LST and Topping/FIMing. Creating more tops always increases yield. :blsmoke:

Sounds like you have a good plan.

My advice is be careful not to put them out to early unless lighting schedules are adjusted to the outdoor light schedule.

This is the number 1 mistake most make, and their plants go into early flower, then re-veg, and that causes lower yields and sometimes affects the size.

Good luck

Good point, lot of produce grown in my area. Farmers put out starts in spring and fall. To get veg. times longer than the daylight hours, they set up those open sided tents, white in color, with an incondecent bulb near the top. couple of hours at dusk or dawn fools the plant into thinking, longer day. Anything white on a frame should work.

I love how people make growing weed so complex and such a mystery, it's easy as long as your nutes are on point, your soil is rich and you learn a couple of stressing techniques to promote more growth, strain is irrelevant.

I agree to a point.but outdoors there are variables you can't control.weather , pests,amount of sun.....

Isn't it a little late in the year to be planting outdoor in Colorado? Also, I would never use that Bloom Blaster. You are providing organic nutrients. It would be counter productive to use it.

It was just an example of what sort of numbers you should look for...

Also weather can have a massive effect on bud structure, long hot dry spells can cause looses fluffy flowers, during dry spells I'll spray my plants to simulate rain, unless it's humid (bud rot) but here in Australia we don't worry about humidity too much lol, dry as in summer. So yeah why are you planting in CO this late?

Our native soil here in CO sucks lol, I'd just dig the holes then backfill with ffof or roots greenfields. Best of luck!

How hot does it get there during bloom in Australia? In Colorado if anything we actually need warmer temps during bloom.. Always been my experience outdoors the warmer the temp, the denser and bigger the nugs provided the right nutes, enough water and the plant isn't root bound. Then again our "hot" weather during bloom is usually 80-85 degrees farenhieght. Which I've found perfect. A lot of the time we get mid 60s-low 70s during bloom which I've found they mature to slow in and don't get big/dense enough.
