Estimated yield

I was thinking of setting up a grow in a 3x3 with 4-5 plants with a mars hydro 4800 and I was wondering the yield, I’d be using normal or live soil with some nutrients and compost teas, they’d be planted in 10 gal cloth buckets for flower and vegged for 6 weeks in a 5 gal cloth bucket, the flowering stage would last 2 months with low stress training and topping (seeds are also high yielding genetics)

I'd give you a good chance of netting about a pound on this one after doing some complex multi-step calculations. Best bet is to get those buyers all lined up now and paid in advance.

Have you grown before? Genetics and skill is 98% what determines yield and quality.

It only takes a little neglect and a few stacked mistakes to go from doing well to yellow and crispy. This can be especially true in soil where you don’t immediately see mistakes.

I’ve grown a couple times and I’ve gotten advice from people who’ve grown before so I kinda know what to look for

I’m new to growing with this size I heard someone say to go with 15gal for high yields then I also seen someone say go with 5 so I just went with 10, is there something I’m missing?
3x3 won’t allow you to grow that many plants in pots that size. You could probably get through veg, but once you flip to flower it would literally be filled entirely-I have 2 plants in 5 gal pots in a 3x3 and it’s really full, couldn’t imagine twice the amount of plants in twice the pot size

You can't fit 4/5 plants in a 3x3, well you can but imo you're best to avoid it for now it would require some experience to get it anywhere near right.

Im getting a shed so it isn’t exactly 3x3 but that’s what I'm giving the plants but they’ll probably be spaced out if needed
