hi guys,

isn't a 5 gallon bucket too small for growing plants; if you want 250-300grams per plant you should have at least 10 gallon buckets - my oppinion, because bigger the hole, bigger the plant ;-) and longer the joint

do you mist outdoor plants and if so do u mist the buds too or just leaves
I mist mine only when there are leaves. After there are buds forming and you spray during the morning. If you spray them later in the day then it will not have time to evaporate and then you will get nute burn on them and the leaves and possible mold issues.

Seems like outdoor growing is way cheaper compared to indoor(buying lights,ventilation,building cab or converting a room). my question is hows the yeilds growing under the sun? higher yeilds?

pretty much from small to huge
i'm shooting for small, a few clones in july, hope for 2 foot plants and 1 oz a piece, all i'm comfortable driving around with
but you see some strains, some of KC Brains come to mind, that can go 12 feet tall
or so i read and see posts of, never seen such a beast up close

I get at least double the yield and I have so much room.A fixed wing A/C/ has to move @ 65MPH its hard to spot a lone plant or even a few at that speed.I know the flight patterns and when they begin and end for the year.I grow outdoor strains in 5 gal buckets and some 8 gal pots.Bought a shitload of the 3 gal bags for the spring crop though.I also have a registered german shepherd that is always on point when we are farming.I stack brush around my pots to keep them from overheating and getting spotted but usually place the pots in brush so that the plant is the same height as the surrounding plants.During a drought when every thing else is dying the ganja really sticks out so I water everything within 50 ft of the group.I live in a jungle so there are springs.By the time I start the second grow of the season my four wheeler will have low lights and Ill be wearing night vision.:bigjoint:The last few seasons I was walking and that blows.10 gals back and forth or split the days.I was having to water everything every day last year.

how whould autos do in 3gal pots outdoors

Plenty of room for an autoflowering plant.Just have to get youre topping technique down.A three footer,Indica(dense) would drink 2 gallons on hot days or near the end of the grow.All my moms are Indica dominant.I hate 7 ft trees,love my Indica's:eyesmoke:

It basically comes down to how many times you want to water every day.I did an indoor w/1000w in 1 gallon folgers coffee tubs.Fuckin awesome buds bud if I took my eyes away for a day they were bone fuckin dry.Besides that theres an old saying.The bigger the roots the bigger the fruits.Go as big as ya can and se if it suffices.I hope these 3 gal units do good and they will be so much easier to move if we get another fuckin Hurricane down here.

I'm not 1 to ask about them.I like to sculpt my plants and they flower easy as shit as it is.Couple of days in the shade and their sprouting Don King haircuts.I imagine you would have to hammer them with light to get a good yield.What is the benefit of auto?

I never try to break speed records.I like mass.Longer veg bigger bud,plus I can clone forever,cant clone an autoflower.Im not dissing em I just dont get it if ya time youre lights right and feed good you can hav a reg strain done in 10-11 weeks.I never rush like that though.Think about it like this ya buy 1 seed and ya clone it and ya clone and clone and ya never run out.All for $40 a seed.More or less.To each his own.Good luck with the grow and holla if ya need something.:peace:
