i grow indoors in 3 gallon pots under a little 400w hps and i can usually expect a couple oz per plant even if something goes wrong. then again i grow seed to harvest in around 4 months. if you can't use anything bigger than a 5 gallon i would reccomend putting them out later than usual so they don't get rootbound before they finish.\
honestly you should have absolutely no problem getting an oz/plant outside no matter what size pot you use unless the thing is so small it smothers the roots.

Hopefully you mean Alaska Fish Fertilizer cheap. "Fish 'em" has been the PNW mantra for decades.

In my first grow i used two different types of mg soil. I used the moisture control and the organic mix. Both soils worked alright. There is nutrients that are in the soil to feed the plant. With a 3 gallon pot you should be good and not have to use nuts for atleast the first month maybe longer depending on strain and its needs. if your only wanting a few ozs then a 3 gallon pot would be perfect. I used 3 gallon pots on my last indoor grow and under a 400 watt hps each plant had 2.5 to 3 oz one plant yielded a qp all by itself. If it is cheap you want during the flowering stage if it needs nuts u can use wood ashes they do it in India on there crops for the phospherous in the ashes just a thought its cheap. Burn some wood use the ashes
now im excited about using 3 gallon pots can put more plants all over. about the ashed can i use and kind of wood?and how do i give it to my plant?
