Sorry folks somehow didn't see all the helpful replies to this thread... thanks all... well, as for where I am in the season, it's mid-Spring here in the northeastern US, and I've got some 12" tall Early Mistys in 6" pots rootbound and going into holes this weekend; I've also got some 3' tall monsters (my old mothers which are all 5 months old) in 7 gallon pots, which will also be going into the ground as soon as they fill out the 7's. The ones in 7 gallon pots are a variety- an Early Misty which is just gorgeous, a couple of White Widows, a Diesel and a Master Kush. I've done the Diesel outdoors before and know it does pretty well; I have a good feeling about the Misty as well. The others are just experiments. It is very, very good to know that the yield is comparable to other varieties, thanks so much for that info. Thanks again all!
