I start in 4in pots, then 2 - 3 weeks after sprout, I transplant into 5 gallon buckets. here's a pic of my current grow after 2 weeks in the 5 gallon buckets. Keep in mind that they were pretty well root bound at transplant, and I am growing indoors under CFLs. the plant in the pack on the right is Nor Cal Daddys Girl, the other 2 are Toxic Blue.
