1 gallon per foot of plant.

Don't use clear soda bottles. Light should not penetrate to the roots.

Separate them NOW bofore the roots develop any more.

Too late now but I would have said square pots are much more efficient than round one's, but you bought them already. Its something most people don't really think about.
