Huge containers
has anyone ever grown multiple plants in really big containers? Right now I'm growing nine plants in two rubbermaid-type storage containers. I drilled holes in the bottoms of both for drainage, and each one has more than 10 gallons of dirt in it. I use the lids as trays to catch runoff. I'm thinking this might be ideal, because it gives all the plants plenty of room for their roots, and the containers are large and rectangular. They're about 2 x 1.5 feet, which means two can be put end to end under 48" fluoro tubes really easily, or side to side underneath a HPS light for a 2 x 3 foot grow area. Or use 4 for a 4 x 3 foot area. The containers are kind of heavy, but they're not hard for one person to lift, and simple for two people to lift.
Any thoughts?

Wow, that's pretty impressive. Considering the success that guy had, I'm surprised no one's tried to emulate that by giving their plants more root room.
I'm just putting my plants into flowering now, they're nirvana big buds, and they average about a foot high. I've got five big buds and 4 smaller lowryders that i started like two weeks later. Four big buds are in one container, one big bud and four lowryders are in the other. They're growing under a 400-watt HPS light. I'll post results at some point.
