So IOW. putting multiple plants in a single pot is only a concern if the grower plans on transplanting the plants at some point? So like you say, if that's not the case (and it certainly wasn't what I had in mind with the type of SOG grow set up I've been looking at) then it shouldn't be a problem at all. That's good to know, as it would actually make everything a little simpler in the grow space.

Multiple plants in single growing tray In relation to the SOG soil garden questions I posted in a previous thread, I asked about ways to maximalize root space in pots where the horizontal dimension of the grow space is quite limited, but the vertical splace is not. After getting a thumbs up for the idea of simply using a very deep set of pots (perhaps something made of little cut lengths of ABS tubing with drilled caps on the bottom?), someone suggested that in addition to using a deep growing pot, that I consider sticking all of Rating: 5
