POLL Ten 100 gallon pots, how many pounds per plant ?
- Thread starter dlively11
- Start date
The ground here is all sand basically. Lots of gophers too..... The Smart Pots were cheap enough and large enough I think I am getting close to what in ground would yield. Maybe I'll try the 200 gallon pots next year ! =)

You should get a swimming pool and fill it up with soil xD

next year im gonna get 150 gal smart pots, cut most of the bottom out and put them on top of my holes im using this year, along with my drip system this should work GREAT..im also gonna use 2 or 3, 2.5" pvc pipe with caps on the bottom, drill a bunch of small holes in them, then fill with small lava rocks and bury them into the smart pots, use them as feeding tubes to get my nutes directly into the heart of the root sytem...tell me what ya think.

I'm thinking this grow is right under someone's deck and not a huge commute. JMHO. Good luck & good grow.......BB

Good idea, those plastic pools are like $15-$20 on sale and they hold 200-300 gallons. A shallow 8X8 pool I got this year was 500 gallons !
Sounds really good. Plan on LOTS of dirt. I used 9-10 bags per container for 100 gallon. So figure at least 20 bags for a 150 plus in ground.
Well due to fog and cooler weather the plants really slowed down. Probably only about a foot taller then last pics. The three large Blue Dreams arent showing flower yet but 75% of my other plants are in bloom or full bloom. I'd guess 2 weeks in on most and 3 weeks on a few others which is early. Shouldnt look like that until mid Aug. So I lost some serious growth potential on a lot of them. The nodes on the BDs are getting closer so they look like they may have switched just no real hairs popping out yet. If we get some good heat I think they could go back to full veg. F*cking wierd thing is , my BC Big Bud plant that I tossed out from full 24 hours light as a throw away mom is still in full veg and is getting HUGE ... It gets a lot less direct sun light then the other plants as well.... WTF ? Would have thought the Sativas would be a lot less prone to going to bloom early. All my Cheese, Agent Orange, Pot Of Golds have definitely switched. A couple smaller Blue Dreams have as well.
I'll get some more pics up soon.

More updates on the garden;
Need to get the camera out there again this week . Have a Cheese that got really huge width wise with TONS of bud sites. Is about 2-3 weeks into bloom but still looks like it could produce very well. Good sized Casey Jones in 45 gallon that is going strong. One monster Pot of Gold in 45 gal but also a couple weeks into bloom. Agent Orange in 65 gal that seems to have just switched but plenty big so no worries. One bizarre super droopy Lemon Thai Skunk that is in a 100 gallon and has gotten quite large and is in full veg still probably 7 feet tall and as many wide. really tried hard to keep from early bloom this year but still had a lot of issues. Used CFLs in the morn (4 AM) to give them extra light but seems they only helped the side they were next to to stay in veg. Strange. Be interesting to see how it all turns out this year. Will be a real mix I think.
Almost forgot I have a Fruity Chronic that ended up getting pretty big in veg (45 gal) and hasnt really switched yet. Excited about that one. In SOG 4 per SQ foot single colas they can yield 32 grams dry so far and that is with no CO2 ! Cant imagine how big the buds could get outdoors =)

We have got to see those pics..................................
I have more but here are a few from today. Maybe a foot and a half taller then previous posted pics. Lots of fog all of july and Aug so far. They look like they might be starting to preflower but it is very hard to tell. Pics really cant show how wide they really are. THe one on the left goes back about 10 feet I'd say, the front where the pic is taken from is only about 7-8 feet at its widest spots.
FYI I am 6 foot 2 iches and 225 lbs
Enjoy =)

A few more.
Here is the same Blue Dream a few weeks ago when I first pulled down a lot of the branches. You can see in the second pic how it really filled in. Last pic is my freak BC Big Bud I almost tossed. Thing is massive. Already needs supports for its branches and its not even in bloom yet.
