if you look at your indoor results sticki, you're pulling a lil more then one zip per gallon of soil.. you said you got 3.5 from a 3 gallon pot, so with 45 gallons outdoors, i'd think you should get at least the same one zip per gallon, if not much more, so that would give you 45 ounces at one per gallon.. that's a hair under three elbows right there, so i'd say it's very doable just going off of your indoor numbers and upscaling them..

thats wat i was thanking but wasnt sure. the nugs indoor get the same size as shaving cream bottles even the nugs at the botom are nice. just a very gud strain cause usually i pull about 2 zips aplant with other strains.

Keep in mind that soil mass isn't the only controlling factor. Area is also very important. Depending on strain and grower, most plants produce between 30 and 60 grams sq/ft. So...

453.6 divided by 30 = 15.12 sq/ft. or a diameter of a bit more than four feet for one lb.

A heavy producer like Romulan may approach 60 grams sq/ft, or 7.56 sq./ft. Or slightly less than a three foot diameter.

Outdoors, most strains will need the larger area.

LST, used to widen each plant's "footprint" will help increase yield.

Now, if you want 3 pounds each, you'll need to multiply each plant's area(footprint) by 3.

Between 22.56 and 45.36 sq/ft. Or a circle with a diameter of 5.4 to 7.45 feet.

I hope this helps.

I'm using the formula for the area of a circle. pi x radius squared. The reason I mention these numbers is that placed in a 4' x 4' grid, you'll have trouble getting to the pots as they near flowering.

One more thing. If the soil beneath your smart pots is tilled, lightly fertilized, and soaked before you place your pots/plants, roots may penetrate the bottom of the pot, providing several times your initial soil mass.

Although I used raised beds, you might benefit from reading through my threads. I've included a lot of information gained from long experience. All linked in my siggy.

Mr Sticky.....I did my Rommy in 200 gallon bags last year, and wished they had more room. I got 4.5 lbs avg from them. The year before in the big 40 grow, they were in the 10ft. wide rows, 10 ft apart and avg 6 lbs each. I believe grown properly in the ground they would easily pull 10lbs. My little bro used 65s last year and got 3lb. each.
