I don't know Ewitte. I have a empty bag here & it's 16 DRY gallons & 28 lbs. I used the mix that was in the old 30 gal pot plus at least 1 1/2 bags of mg mix that was prolly 40 lb bags. It seemed to take forever to fill LOL. When the 'boys' carried the nana plant out they estimated it weighed at least 160 lbs. Now add water & I'd guess it weighs at least 500 lbs. Mike can lift 100 lbs easy but no way could 2 of him lift the 30 gal pot. I have same 30 gal pot on casters - the only way to move it, or we could drag it on the floor. I don't think I'd be able to move the 65 gal pot very far even on casters.
