Can I just ask a question?

Why do people bother transplanting anyway? It seems that the easiest way is just like Locobound said --- start in big pots to begin with.

Is there any downside to growing them in a 3-5 gallon pot from the get-go? Not that I can imagine...but maybe I am wrong.

I started my plants in smaller containers this grow and subsequently transplanted them, but next grow I am just going to start them in bigger containers and leave them there...seems more logical to me.
