Just been having a little think about pots for my next grow, I want to get 4 in the space, but i wondering, whats the bottom range for pot size versus yield, i know it ranges between strains obviously, but for the space i have 36'' wide and 18 inches deep , that would put the pots somewhere around 8-9L/pot, would that be enough soil? Im gonna purchase some Lemon Stinky seeds for the next one, so im wonderin if matt could speculate on that pot size seeing as he knows this strain better than anyone else.. the max size i can go to get 4 plants in there is 22.5cm width/depth, otherwise the pots wont fit in the 45cm depth of the wardrobe. so if anyone knows anywhere that sells pots around 22cm x22cm would be groovy, or as close as. an 18cm one is too small i think, its only 6 litres or so..

plus with having only a 250w, more soil, means more roots, better yield, which is key with a small light.

Just go with the biggest you can fit in the spaceyou have, but don't put them straight into the big pots. I use 4",7",10" and so on, letting them root out in each size before moving to the next. That way you get a good solid root mass sorted before flowering. Once in the final pots just wait for the roots to show @ the drain holes then switch to flower.

Good luck.

Ive got smaller pots from this grow still, ill clean those out and re use them, im thinking for final pots dude. I wanna get the best from this light and that means everything else needs to be spot on to ensure the best results i can get.(hopefully)

Might end up getting 25cm/2 and just cut them down a little so they fit.

Its around a 1/2 gallon per foot.
1 gallon for 2 foot, 3 gallon for 6 foot etc.

if I added every single size I would be all day lol..these are "approx sizes" and its easy to figure out 5.5 is half of 11 so just half the size mate..:leaf:

How do I know when the plant has finished rooting, or how to say? I have a seed in soil that expects pop up from the soil anyday now hpoefully...
