In pots or in the ground?

Seeds can be planted anytime after last frost. They can be planted earlier with a greenhouse. Most seedlings take 4-6 weeks to be mature enough to go into flower. Been doing it in the Midwest for decades.

Nice, so in the ground yielded much much higher I see.

You could still use a 60-100 gallon smart pot and achieve the same yield as the one i had in the ground if u wanted to...

 

[ruby fruit]

If 100 gallon is to much for you ive seen plenty of ppl on here pull a pound of 40-60 gallon smart/fabric pots

ups and downs to everything. the only advantages i see to using pots is, being able to move your plants, it keeps some pests at bay that dont wanna scale the pot, and you control your nutes alot better. now if you wanna big yeild, dig a 4x4 hole in a sunny spot, and fill it with good soil. the roots will eventually go past your good soil bit the chances of them picking up some more valuable micro nutes in the native soil are pretty good. put weighted cardboard or plastic down around your plants until they are thriving. this will keep the youngings ccompeting for lighting amongst the weeds. take it out once you have thriving plant above the other weeds, so the roots can be more exposed to rain water. hope this helps.

How do you know when a frost is the last frost?

Please don't put plants out before june with out light on them, too many people have reveg problems and its not worth the time loss.

You can get 1lb per plant in 20 gallons but its just easier in 30 gallons and not much more cost. I'm upset if I don't get minimum of 1.5lbs from a 30

ground or pot depends on what you want to do and where you live and the soil. The ground where I live now is almost all rock so I stay in pots. If I had to worry about height I would dig hole in the ground. If the soil where you are is good, like at my last house, then plant in the ground..

Is that an Irish Wolfhound?

My plan is as follows.

Dig a 30 gallon hole in the ground. Fill with proMix.
Reason is the roots can expand past the promix but the mix helps it.
Likely will get a better yeild.

Sorry I wasn't really directing it at you. Just the people that didn't comprehend that you where doing seeds.

From experience raised beds or fabric pots will give a better yield than in ground planting. Also 30 gallons of soil seems like a lot for a plant that is only going to be growing for 12-16 weeks. In my area I find 10-12 gallons is plenty enough to take my crops to the first of October.

My main goal is a lb per plant. 10gall wont get me there. 30 gallons is better. Reaspon is more roots more bud.

I love my 100gal smart pots except for at my last house. The ground there was amazing, i could have probably bagged and sold that soil. i was in a nice farming area, now rock...
