If I used 4.5 lbs* of blackberries, how much sugar should I cut out?

*Will have to buy frozen berries in 12 oz packs. Six 12 oz packs is 4.5 lbs. I'd rather up the berries to 4.5 than reduce them to 3.75.

I'd start with a bit under 2 pounds, and check the SG. If the SG is bit low, you can add some more sugar.
