Wow. Seriously, wow.
This year I'm putting a couple in 10 (yes ten) gallon pots, to keep them small enough to move into the garage if I need to finish them there at the end of the season. The rest are going into.... eh.... a 100' x 100' pot... known as the ground in my backyard. I will dig about 18 cubic feet (3x3x2) of native ground out per plant and fill it with a mix of compost, steer manure, peat moss, chicken manure, etc. (all from the local farm store), to give them a good start, and then they're on their own. Obviously your harvest goals are orders of magnitude larger than mine.
Last summer (my first outdoor) I grew two in 100 gallon smart pots and two in 100 gallon sized holes I dug in the ground and filled with the same good soil I put in the smart pots. I really didn't notice any difference between the two. Maybe that's because their ultimate potentials were all actually limited by my lack of experience -- but they all bulked up, filled out, and were generally healthy.
Other than things like gophers, what are the advantages of potting them outdoors? I see most folks who know what they're doing, do it (which is why I tried it last year). Thanks for the info --
Looking good tdub. Im lettting mine get wet. Not that much rain coming here and they are barely flowering. Be good to wash off the dust!

Suppose to be light showers Sunday morning then some heavy rain at times on Monday here. My ladies are only pistils so Im thinking they will be fine with that forecast. If not into the garage they go...Some pretty heavy rain at times here. All my babies are hiding in the garage doorway still lol
