Hey Buds! It's legal in Washington now and I am applying for 2 level three (up to 30k sq' each) producer licenses. I will also be applying for a processor license and I'll post another thread on that. I am working on my business plan and doing a ton of research and right now I'm working on how many plants I can grow. Keep in mind the 30k is canopy and does not include equipment or other storage. I've been considering many options, 30gal pots too expensive, tires too messy although I love tires for gardening, soil filled trenches waste of soil, black garbage bags with holes maybe, raised beds too expensive. I have come to the thought of digging holes 3' round and 3' deep into the ground. This will not impede the root system as the roots can grow into the natural soil, is cheap, and the holes can be filled with the medium of my choice. Now I am trying to figure how many plants I can grow with this arrangement. Considering a rectangle 100' x 300' I can place these holes in rows 3' apart but this only gives me 666 plants. I'll probably stagger them but is this enough room? I plan on growing almost exclusively this year G-13 strain and I expect a yield of 2lbs per plant. Any help is appreciated as I am building my business plan now to find funding. Thanks!
