i have green house that can fit 32 30 gal pot. Or I can fit 80 large plants in 5 gallon pot. Each of them 3 feet tall and 2 feet wide. What would be the best choice? I’m looking for the most yield

veg B until roots are out the bottoms then initiate flower. use light deprivation if needed.

5 gallon is small for outdoor unless you have a drip feed system. Hand watering 80 plants will be a huge pain in the ass and probably need to be done 2x a day in pots that small once they start drinking a lot in flower.

There's no way you'll ever catch me trying to hand water a field like that. Unless you can set up an automated irrigation/fertigation system I'd go with the bigger pots and fewer plants. Even with automated watering and feeding 5 gallons is way too small for for anything outside unless you're going to light dep them without too much of a veg like @chemphlegm said. Even then if they're already 3' tall you need to either flower right now or put them in the thirties and give them a few.

I have a small 10 plant outdoor garden and use blumats for automatic watering and couldn’t imagine growing without it. It’s definitely worth setting up some sort of automated system no matter the size garden. Plants stay healthy and you save a ton of time.
