Need some serious help on yield for guerilla grow

I need someone to help me figure out what it takes to simply get one to two ounces per plant. I
know for outdoor growing those number are pretty small but in my state its hard to get away with
growing due to aerial searches. Lots n lots of choppers.

So I figure maybe put out a larger number of plants rather than large plants. But spreaded out
over various areas, different methods etc. So pretty much were looking at the most 8 hrs of direct
sunlight down to about 5 direct. With a large number of plants its going to be hard amending so
many holes with top quality ammendments and soil. So I was thinking digging my holes about 2ft
deep by 2ft wide. Using half native soil and half promix, adding osmocote time release ferts as a
basic supplement and feeding with good nutes when needed. Also mixing a handfull of water
polymer crystals in the soil as well. This keeps the plants smaller and not as visiual to the helicopters.
I will also tie them down and use lst, and im also going to try to do many 3ft wide by 2 feet deep and
ten foot long trenches here and there ammended the same. In the trenches I will put maybe 25-30
seed plants in a row and hope half are female and kill the males. The seedlings would be at least 2 weeks old to 3. In my holes I would use 3 plants per hole and hope for at least one female per hole.

If I were to attempt this method do you think an oz per plant would be practical? Maybe more?
Or less? When they flower I will also be able to attend them and feed them mollases and bloom
nutes as well. I'm hoping for a 30-50lb grow between me and my partner. Times ticking and I
need the best advice possible to get this underway. Please help me so I can get rolling and
hopefully start a journal. Thanks
 
OK, you want 1-2 oz/plant and want 30-50# at harvest so you are looking at 240-800 plants. But you are putting 3 plants per hole, so your gonna be planting 720-2400 seedlings?

Get real. Everybody wants 30-50 pounds their first harvest. If you can't get 6-8 oz per plant outdoors your doing it wrong. From your questions it's obvious you've never done this before, try about a dozen plants in 4 locations, no way you can do what you described your first grow.
 
This isnt my first grow. Its my 4th year and usually I get 3-4 lb from 20 to 22 plants. It is my first year
however wanting to try this method.

OK so you got 4# from 20 plants or a little over 3 oz per plant. So why are asking if you would be able to get an oz per plant ? You are headed in the wrong direction. I can throw a seed off my porch and if it hits the ground I'll get an oz.

The first issue is you are still dealing w/males...and wasting time all summer watering/feeding them only to trash half your crop come August.

Why?.

Also, I'd ditch the Scott's chemical osmocote for...

I understand the logic of wanting to do more, smaller plants, but I'd stick with your normal method. If it is choppers you are really worried about, I think the guy in a helicopter would need to get extremely lucky or have eyes like a freaking hawk to notice a 5-6 plant patch. Even if they were pretty big plants. It's a little late to be starting with clones, unless of course of have mothers of known sex already sitting around in veg and you can start cutting clones today. I know this idea probably is going to catch me some flak, but I like fem seeds. I don't care what anyone one says. I've grown at least 50 plants from fem seed both indoor and outdoor and never once seen a single male. I do my research though and don't mess with known herm prone strains. However, I digress. If you start growing from seed now and put them out June 1, you can expect in the neighborhood of around 4 oz per plant in mediocre conditions. By mediocre I mean average sunlight, which may not be direct during some parts of the day, 5 gallon bucket sized holes, and hand watering only when it is absolutely needed.
 
If you're looking to do a large scale mini op, I would HIGHLY suggest taking some time out of each day and reading every one of these pages about a guy doing upwards of 5,000-15,000 mini's each season. It has inspired me in so many different ways and I now take a different approach to looking at this "game" we play. Not to be advertising a different site or anything, but I strongly believe every guerilla grower should read this entirely https://www.icmag.com/ic/showthread.php?t=62895 "do what you can, where you can, when you can & how you can"
 
Man thanks for that link, pretty interesting.. And yes I do have a few known mother plants. Skunk #1, aurora indica,
blueberry and AK47. Having more trouble getting roots from the bb than any. This is the first time i've ever attempted to
take clones, the skunk rooted within 7 days with roots showing from bottom. Very easy strain to clone in my opinion. I feel
pretty good about that. Looks like im gonna have to start burnin the cuttings up and get rolling.

As for the seed go, i will more than likely force flower a couple weeks from seed. Thats how I got my mothers in the first
place, so far so good.

So if one were to attempt this method it looks like you will be putting as little labor as possible into the prep. Small holes,
water crystals, nutes and native soil from what I gather from that thread you posted. I'll prolly mix in a little promix as well.
