Weight?

Err, I can produce about 2 grams of Diesel from a square meter of algae a day.

So, anybody have any idea how much a gallon of Diesel weighs? Thanks. Trying to see how productive that'll be.

So, a 100 Square Meter pond can make me about .44 lbs a day, so it would take 16 days to make a gallon. Joy...
