no such thing as too big ... a common compromise is the #5 pots, approximately 11" diameter, 12" tall ... this is first time Ive gone this big, and for indoors, I think they will be sufficient ... for years I used 10" clay pots with good results, too ... I prefer clay pots because they 'breathe', the excess nutrient 'salts' leach thru the clay, if over-fertilized, BUT they need water more frequently ... these new #5 are plastic, and seem to be just fine ... my little girls look good in them, like black patent-leather shoes ... lol ...:smokin:
the image reaper Reviewed by the image reaper on . 1st grow growing one white widow (tallest) and three unknowns all from same bag. growing in a mylar covered cabinet (59"x28"x14") with CFL only. Canopy is (1) 100w and the side lights (7) are 23w for a total of ~260w. Potted in miracle grow soil, using superthrive and shultz nutes. Not sure how long they've been vegging, maybe a month or so for the widow and three weeks for the unknowns. I've been overwatering for sure and I had nute burn on the leaves, but they seem to be doing well in spite of me. I Rating: 5
