Won't ask again then
Nooooo. don't get butt hurt now like vns. You asked and I told you but in turn you say what you are doing is the best you can do. Which is fine but if you want big yields you have to have big pots . So the point was knda mute. Can you grow in the ground?

Haha not offended. Yeh I understand where your coming from. Yeh half my plants are in the ground other half are in pots. All depends on the soil. Some spots where it's been logged years ago have areas where the plants can grow freely in good topsoil maybe 3 foot deep and 10 foot round. From where the skidders have pushed the top soil together. Other spots soil is to hard so at most the hole would be 200 litre's. Not trying to grow 4or 5 pound monsters just 1 pound plants maybe about 6 foot high bushes. I do all my watering on motorbike 30 litre's at a time up in the mountains. Only way to escape rippers. Just trying to get advice from American growers because you are more advanced in growing bigger plants due to legalisation and learning from each other.

I upped my game last year and lost 45 plants to police helicopters. Bastards even took my game cams. Haha I have the strain's that I need I'm pretty sure. Just lacking the confidence to grow bigger patches I think . Already have 2 headband strain's both freebies from attitude . I think next season I might call in the help of a close mate and do a couple of extra patches with his help. Carrying a 10 inch earth auger on your lap on a motorbike up goat tracks is not as funny as it sounds. I use water crystals to help the feeding. I think this year with the drought and bad start we all had sort of made me feel less skillfull. But like you said good sized hole's and proper feeding with good genetics = big yields.
