 Enough plants to reach my harvest quota?

This is my first real grow and of course i dont want to mess up. I planted all 10 of my plants in the wild a month back and they look great. My goal was to harvest 750-1000 grams total by the end of it. I have 3 sites. Site 1 has 2, site 2 has 3 and site 3 has 5. They are iranian G-13 autoflowers I got from the Doc. 150$ worth, very pricey, but man amazing seeds feminized too so i dont gotta worry bout sexing. Anyway I was thinking about buying another pack of autoflowers to make sure I reach my harvest quota of around 750 grams. Maybe a second opiinion. Do yous guys think I should buy another pack and go with 20 plants this summer, or will i reach my quota with 10. Planting the other 10 wouldnt be a problem, I know the places and have all the fences just i dont know bout spending another 150$. Any advice on autoflower outdoor harvests Anyway Thanks fellow growers.

750g with 10 autoflowers? That would be pretty difficult to achieve!
Where are you from? By this time of the season, if you live in northen hemisphere, you could plant some reg beans or fem. but not auto-flowers, and the plants wouldn't take much time to start flowering, and you could harvest around October, November.

That right there would be kind of like planting autoflowers any way.
But to answer the question, if it's auto flowering strains you are working with and 10 plants is all you have then no you will probably most likely not harvest 1.5 - 2 pounds. Maybe an ounce +- each plant.

What? no. Autoflowers planted right now will be harvestable by last august.
Also, to answer the original question, I don't think there's a snowflakes chance in hell that you'll get 750g from 10 autoflowers. that's just laughable.
Plant real seeds if you want that kind of weight, autoflowers are a waste for growing outside

I think it would be VERY unlikely to yield 1000g from ANY autoflowers. However, throw out 10 real plants this time of year and that's a very achievable goal

well if all you yeilded was 2 oz per plant your looking at approx 600 grams with ten plants. these being at least twice to three times as big as lowryders which can yeild about a oz. i dunno seems doable to me but time will tell keep us posted. Ive seen pics of those iranians and they look pretty hardy. i mean there like mighty mite which have been around forever.
oh he wanted 750 from 10 plants not just one!!

I don't think Harry is right about Autos having a low yield always but he is right that a guerrilla style grow should not be using afs.

Harry is 110% right about autoflowers having a low yield. Have you seen what this guy pulls off of one plant under a 600? Compared to regular Indica/Sativa based strains, autoflowers are a joke. Outdoors I've seen a hybrid plant pull down just over 2.5lbs.. The highest yielding autoflower isn't gonna touch a fraction of that.
I mean, yeah, I've heard the stories of people pulling 100g's off an auto, as I'm sure many of you have.. But where's the proof?
I will agree that some auto's compared to other autoflowers do yield well, but when compared to standard plants? Well, you just can't compare.
No offense to you AF guys!! I think the plants are cool as fuck, and can work great for lots of people, just not people that are serious about weight like the OP seems to be.

I disagree. Autos place is indoors in small spaces. If you can do a grow outside, ideally you should use a larger strain. Even if you have the fear of choppers you should just plant randomly and conceal them the best you can and not on your property obviously. Autos are nice if you have limited space, and are also nice outdoors in that you can harvest more then once a season. But they are really nice for people indoors with limited space.

autos arent just lowryders people. they can be 3-4 feet easy. 120 days instead of 75 days like lowryders.
you can keep any plant small if you want so thats a silly idea. autos are for short growing season places.. anyway.
cheers

My bad I was unclear. AFs do have a low relative yield compared to other plants but it is not "laughable" to get 750g from 10 AFs because I am sure that there are people who do.
