50 Gallon Smart Pot

[Rory]

Ok, Need some quick advise here. I got some plants in two gallon pots, there about a foot to a foot and a half tall right now, well....i want to put them in there final homes, I was thinking of 50 Gallon smart pots, is that going to be big enough for these plants come october? How much can i yield off 50 gallons?

I filled up 2 100 gallon smart pots yesterday, I'm thinking I can pull over an elbo in them. It took A BUNCH of dirt to fill them up, in fact we didn't quite fill them, but it was close. I bet you can get close to an elbo in the 50 gallon. In a 5 gallon bucket I can almost get an 1/4, so......I ordered 2 more 100 gallon today...I like them because an animal can't turn it over, or the wind. cali carma yer way....

The strain you run makes the difference, as some love space and others don't use it as much. 50's will do well in a backyard but I see large azz ones (200+) and if you did guerilla you'd be haulin' in soil for weeks lol.
I use 38 gallon trash cans in guerilla and a few 15's with decent results. But I want a closer grow as it is better to keep an eye on em.

well i pulled half a pound in a 15 gallon pot last year, and i started her in late June, well im way ahead of last year, so i dont know, im thinking 50 gallon can give me at least 3 pounds no?

Should be more if its the same conditions and strain. The container size is triple + and the yeild should be 5+ units imo.

You should able to get way more than just a pound off of 100 gallons I successfully pulled 20 ounces from 1 plant in a 15 gallon geopot indoors under a 630 lec strain was chocolope kush
