Too many variables to guess on yield. Maybe 3-6 oz a plant? could be more, could be less.

The bigger the pot...the bigger the plant. Some people use 100 gallon pots. A good 20-30 gallon pot would make for real nice plants though.

7 gallons isnt much for outdoor,youll have to water them heavily every day once they get bigger and the small size of the pot will eventually stunt the growth. A rough estimate is one ounce of bud per gallon of medium.

I had a nice grow using 7gallon root pots but they air pure the roots and plastic pots don't. I also only averaged about 3-4 oz per plant. This year I am going to try 15 or 20 gallon root pots.

ya and by super cropping you should get a bigger yield. lolliepoping them aswel might be a good move to make for a bigger yield.

you really don't need to lollipop outdoors IMO you're just cutting off yield.. I think lollipop is made for indoors

7 gal might hit the goal, I grabbed about 4 oz of bud of a plant I had seeded in 10 gal, so I'd imagine without the seeds you could get 8. If you can grab something a little bigger and an extra bag of soil, I would. Transplanting from 7 to 10 seems kind of silly to me.

Trashbags in the ground eh? Well shit, if my new pad didn't have such a bad gopher problem I'd be busting that out this season. Not so eco friendly, but it'd get more use out of any garbage bag I've used before.
