JJ is 99.999% right on the pot size... You can get 1lb plants in 30 gallon pots but if you're growing plants that big, you might as well go 100gal and get multiple lbs per plant. I used a couple 30 gallon pots last year and got over a lb per plant but the same plants in 100gal pots gave about 4lbs.
No more 30 gallon pots for me, I gave them all to a friend... waste of money...

I grew in 100 and 150 gallon Smart Pots last year. This year I bought 6 - 200 gallon pots from JJ and stepping up my game. I pulled good weight off those 100's and 150's, curious about the 200's this year. Had 8 plants in the garden last year, going with 6 this year and hoping to pull the same weight as last year. Seeds were started 10 days earlier this year, bigger pots, and some high yielding strains should get me close (Orange O.G. X SR-71 and Grand Master).

I'm cutting back numbers and going with larger pots as well. Instead of 32 in 30 gallons like last year, just 18 in 100gals.

That's a good idea to go with an ac- dc pump. Those deep well pumps are spendy but your going to need the lift of a good pump.
I was just curious cause you were saying an artesian well. Which means you'd have to hit a positive pressure vain of water. To be true artesian.
Our dug well is 360 ft up the mountain, so no pump needed and we still have plenty of pressure on the 3rd floor of the house.

Looks like things are coming right along. Hope you guys have the best season ever..!!

Thanks everyone the feed back really helps. I don't have that much height space because I don't want it to be to obvious to the neighbors, I'm proudly going with a 7-9 ft tall greenhouse. I'm going for really fat short plants and I'm only doing about 4-6 main plants and I want 1 mayb 2 lbs a plant so I'm a little iffy on the pot size I was thinking about 25 gallon or 30-35. And what greenhouse film do you recommend
