Outdoors! One plant can easily give you a pound! I plant seedlings outdoors in april but I dont plant clones outdoors until late june because they flower early then go back to veg. Even a Kush strain is going to yield close to a P or more outdoors so dont sweat it too much. I would start 6 plants so you get at leat 2 females. Good luck!

yield is contingent on so many different things that it's impossible for anyone
to give you a definitive answer, you'll just have to wait and see what you get.

I say if thats what your going for just get as many plants going as you can and see what you get. Tone down if work load gets to big...

every one keeps telling me there is no definitive way to tell me what ill yield even I know there isn't just looking for a round about figure of what to least expect so if more then ill be pleased also I know the more plants I put out and take care of the more ill get in return however my only issue is getting water to them I can't run hosing and there is no water supply where they would be any help on that they won't be in buckets I would be digging 2x2x2 holes and putting soil in the holes

cant even round figures because its about how the plants grow with a few things in mind like environment, Soil nutrition, PH balanced water, nutes, etc. and even with knowing that you cannot give a rounded estimate. If you have no way of giving water to your plants Id suggest a rain dance.

hi.
i get preocupied by all the questions as what will this tield or what will that yield and so on.
i think the enphasis sould be on getting the hang of growing. getting quality up (as oposed to quantity). after all alot of the best weed i have smoked and grown werent very high yielders but were well worth their weight in gold due to the quality of the smoke.
i reckon we should concentrate on becoming connoseurs of quality smoke rather than focused on yields and profits.
anyway thats just how i feel. of course we all (me included) wonder what this or that plant will turn out like, but the truth is we only find out after the final chop and drying. so its really no use trying to estimate final yields unless we really know a strain well. and the only real way to do that is to grow a strain for a couple of seasons and understand how it reacts to different stimuli.
get to know the strains you grow. the subtleties and diferences between different phenotypes.. things like that. and even then its only a guess.
of course there are ways to get all this yield consistancy down to a science but you only get to that stage from alot of hard work.
anyway
peace
ileso

its were you stomp around an empy bucket under a scorching sun, howling like a mad man to the beat of a drum in the hope some supernatural entity will hear you, take pity and piss in the bucket...

lmfao seriously I read that I can save rain water in something and use that I can get water to them but it will be like 5 or 6 2x2x2 holes how much water would that be each watering and how often I can be running irrigation or hoses but I don't wanna be seen carrying buckets of water back there either

yeh thats one of the bigger problems.
if there is the possibility of containing rainwater thats perfect. but its not always possible. the other option is either bringing it from a close water sourse or maybe if there is a water sourse high up above your crop useing a hose....

camoflage tarps hung in trees to catch the rainwater can work well if you
have trees nearby that will hide them, just install a hose at the low point
of the tarp and then run the hose down the side of the tree. do not use a bright orange hose!
you can also get yourself a hand or foot operated pump, a sump pump
or a bilge pump, and stash it near a stream. then get a length of black
tubing that is used for irrigation, you can find it at Lowes or Home Depot,
and run it from the stream where your pump is to your patch, burying the
tubing along the way.
then, all you need to do is pump water to your plants maybe once a week.
btw, if the stream is located above your patch, you may not need the pump.
