I just started that practice outside 15 gallon bags I'm hoping the buds are nice this year also I planted Auto flowers in 15 gallon pits outside I hope my efforts are paid with huge dividends James loud photos and tricks Auto flowers 😅 happy growing 6/17/24
Mr. Never Blinks I enjoy your podcasts immensely and have learned so much. I use 5 gallon fabric and plastic pots to enable me to get as much sunlight as possible. Also I live close to the Pacific Ocean and get the evening wetness, the evil of plants with bud rot. I bring them into the garage at night and keep the fan blowing. Nightly inspections for caterpillars with a flashlight and weekly BT until the last two weeks.
I used to up size pots, found it to be a pain ,but to be honest i've been changing things slightly every grow, trying different things to see what works best for what i want, then again i like the challenge of changing it up
I've been following the Build A Soil principals. I use a 4x2 soil bed in my 4x2 tent now. Went from 5 gallon AC infinity fabric pots to the grass roots soil bed. Running 70 gallons in there. The plants get massive root systems and grow big and healthy quickly. Soil bed isn't for everyone. It's very very heavy. However, the soil is alive and never gets changed. It's a whole ecosystem now
whats your transplants like now? seed direct into bed? im planning my 2x4 but havnt followed build a soil before. im planning on doing seed starter then 1 gallon maybe 3 gallon if need be then into my bed
@lutherniheu6079 I start the seedlings in solo cups then go straight into the bed. From Clones I do the same, solo cup to bed. You could do a stage in between but it's easier this way for me. Cuts out a lot of work
Uppotting was one of the best practices i learned and saw & have real robust clones!! So i go from nursery cups alittle bigger than solo cups. After i see roots or new growth i than uppot to 1/2 gal. Containers. Intil its close to go into bloom, than ill go for 3 gal. Container final!! I got over 3 foot Pink Runtz in my 1/2 gal. Containers.... i used to go from the solo cup to 3 gal. Thats definetly a no go... the transcition from veg. To bloom takes longer and i feel lose body mass!!! Peace love & chicken grease!! Love from Massachusetts......❤❤❤
i transplant my autos just like you do your regular. I use clear plastic cups inside of solid cups so i can see the roots. When i can see the roots I transplant. Never had stunting, never had any issues with yield. It generally increases my yield, I use Mycorrhizae when I transplant to speed up root growth. I wouldn't let the plant outgrow the solo cup though.
Size doesn't matter, what only matters is correct feeding and watering. The bigger pot the less you water and viceversa. There's a sweet point between both, mines between 2.5 gal and 4 gal, no need for more indoors, watering 2 times a week should be enough
5G fabric pot is gold. I’ve vegged for months and never an issue. Clone goes straight to 5G, I’m lazy is the main reason lol but it works great for me. Side note, after harvest the entire pot is a sponge of roots and I recycle that back into my soil.
I like to grow in 4 gallon pots as well. Now I do start all plants in a solo cups. Well what I mean is I have my 4 gallon pot and then I place a solo cup in the center of my pot then I fill all around the cup with soil that has Ben cooking for over 4 weeks. I then remove the cup leaving the hole from the cup. I will then fill the whole with a cup filled with pro mix HP and worm castings. This way you get the solo cup grow and don’t have to transplant.
i grow outside right in the ground grow the biggest plants i ever grew, 8 feet tall and about a good 6 feet in diameter, gave up using pots and growing indoors, i get better results outside. HUge healthy buds.
I grow strictly outdoors now. Grow enough during the growing season for us, gifting, and trading for variety. The joke with several friends who do the same. Who's gonna inherit all this weed when we're gone...We grow in 15 gallon bottomless pots. Veg stage the plants build and thrive on the composted soil and Myco. Roots work their way into the soil and get everything they need through harvest. With the exception of the Myco no other fertilizers or additives. Spend more money on sourcing and buying primo seeds than anything else.
Biggest plants I've grown was with grow dots and recharge. Hit it with liquid koolbloom during bud. In coco. It was all by accident also. 8 punches from a 3 gallon fabric pot
I usually start in solo cups then move them to 1 gallons to veg in for a month(or flowering space becomes available)and usually 3 to 5 gallons for flower.
Autos…You can certainly transplant autos successfully, Autos under a 18/6 light schedule has a vegetative stage of 2-5 weeks veg max. From a Solo Cup 9-11 days until transplanting, for me. 1st 4 weeks plant is vegging Starts to flower day 35-40 Rule of thumb: 2 weeks or 4-10” in height = a robust root system and several nodes is a good sign before transplanting, making sure to avoid letting the tap root/roots hit the bottom of the cup. Letting the roots touch the bottom will forever hurt your crop, stunt the growth and significantly decrease overall yields. Here’s a 2 for 1 tip on Autos, for LST/Pruning -When leafs reach outside of solo cup or container, from here you got about 30 days to train your plants. For my photoperiods I usually transplant/up-pot 3x from seed and top/de leaf my plants multiple times throughout transplanting. The solo cups gets topped once. Then the 1/Gal gets topped 2-3 more times. The 3/Gal gets topped 2-3 more times. Then final 10/Gal gets topped & lollipoped until it is ready to flower. Depending on genetics growth habits/ceiling height and grow style.
I'm sort of a hands off, final home, less is more type of guy. I don't veg that long either though. I love 5 gal but ??????? lately + (right now) I have produced some beauties in 3-gal side by side my 5's. Might just be establishing a thang for me. 3 gal grow well in my 6 x 6's. You mentioned 4 gal,... that might just be that sweet spot for me also. Thanks for the share. I have been growing for a while but learn every day. I love this plant. 👴
5 gal fabric bags have been working great. I'm using coco loco and was wondering about ph and fertilizing. Same correct or should the ph be different when feeding? Fox farms leaves bad information about ph levels and it almost burned all my plants. They say 5.6 when it was supposed to be 6.3-6.5 and is with seashell additive. Why give people the wrong info of leave it out. Kinda sus Thanks for all the tips and help. Much appreciated. Cheers from California
I grow 2 plants in 10gal Fabric pots. With 12/1 Gaslantern Scheme. Round about 3 months veg toping mainlining and scrog. My 120x50x190 cm tentnis complete Green. I allways germinate in the Last Pot. Saving 40% Energy with 12/1. My first 12/1 try was in 5gal Fabric pots. I realized theyre to small for 12/1, So I bought bigger shoes right away.
My lady says size doesn't matter. Just finished a run trying 25ltr,around 6 gallon pots but used my 17ltr,4 gallon pots on half the plants and there was no difference in the size of any of the plants, some of the 25ltr were smaller which shows there's was no difference, they're fabric pots with coco with a 10wk veg so they were big plants yeilding several oz each.
This spring/summer I have 8 plants, they are all in 7-gallon soft pots. My garden area is/was all set up for two OG Kush to be planted in ground. The soil is all prepped and the anti-gopher screens are in the ground. They were to be on each side of my small greenhouse. Now I put my home up for sale and he agents want me to move my plants, hide them if you will! Whenever the house is to be shown. So much for the in-ground idea!! I can put most of them in my van and the others not my quad and I can take them with me until the agents and people leave then put them back into the garden. I find the 7 gallon pots fine for a grow. If I want super big girls I have some 15 gallon pots too. Autos don't need the big pots but I only have one auto growing. She is a good size girl too!
NEW GROWERS USE SMALL POTS: I’ve been using small containers. I tried using 15 gals and I keep failing. Water issues. Small pots that I can lift work decently as I can gauge water very easy like this. And proper feeding and stuff. No issue. Sog is sooo awesome! Less veg. Plants double or triple depending on cultivar. Veg one week in a two gal then flip.
I live in Atlantic Canada and grow 4+ outdoors in 30 gallon fabric pots. I think I’m going to be going down to a 20 gallon this season. I move them into my garage when it rains while they are flowering. Getting too old to be lugging them back and forth. Also I’m going to force them into flower earlier by putting a dark trash bag over them when they’re re vegging. Enjoy your videos. Keep them coming.
@@ScottyReal420 I’m going to put the bags on at 6pm and take off at 9/930pm each evening. It’s just temporary so hopefully it should be fine. Thanks for the info and the reply.
Grow in the ground that makes my container the size of the earth. 7ft by 5fr across Durban poison out the back flowering away Rn. Can't beat planting in the earth
@@ScottyReal420 The joys of living in Perth Western Australia vast open spaces for planting. I sprout late sept and let the babies become Super women harvest around Aprli.
For ne it depends on the system. Growdots I use 4 gals SIP buckets with no prob. After a solo cup veg.. 3 gal air pots for the drain to waste system. No problems. Big containers are for the living soil thing. Not needed in coco
I sell tropical clumping bamboo for tropical regions, myself. These links are for temperate bamboo for colder climates Lewisbamboo.com and Bambooplantaion.com
They need to make bigger pots rounder and shorter to truly get the best plants.But since they don't use the hight of your tent to estimate your pot size.If you have a 6 foot tent then use a 5 gallon,if you have a 60 inch tent use a 3 gallon.
Great video! However, I am an auto flowering grower, you're wrong on saying it's a mistake to up-pot vs. final container. I'm curious as to what actual factual data you have that has consistently shown this. I have grow journals showing data, alongside pics where I am sprouting, then going solo cup, then final container. Please feel free to reach out. Thanks!
when you up potted from the one gallon to the five would would start your veg time over and can run into nutrient imbalances as the bloom nutrients in the one gallon release. I recommend starting out in a solo cup with 5 grams of Grow Dots and only up pot once into the finale container.
I went from 3 gallon to 7 gallon pots 2 crops ago. It changed everything. I veg 8 weeks. Start in solo cups, then 2 gallon pots then to 7 gallon to flower. My crop last August was 8 ounces......January my crop was 28 ounces.
@ttano1117 32 inch x 7.5 foot 8 plants. I said the veg wrong tho. I cut clones a couple days before the crop goes into flower. So 2ish weeks to root and transplant and 6 is weeks of veg. 4 mars hydro ts1000 for flower and 2 for veg. Perpetual setup. Promix, dr earth
You can definitely start auto's in smaller pots and move them up to the final containers within the first 14 days without much if any drawback aslong as the starting pots are sufficient in size though I would suggest 10 days is best and every day after 16 you will notice in the final outcome, 3ltr pots should suffice. The main benefit of auto's in my opinion is the ability to grow perpetually, as one lot comes down the other lot get potted up. Great info as always guys!
I start my autos in peat pods, once they have 4 true leaves they get put in 5 gallon pots in my 2x4. I only grow 2 at a time so they have room to spread out. I've thought about moving to 7 gallon pots.
hello I'm not in no pot I'm straight in the ground… and I always try to get my plants out the last two weeks of April… why so soon? Because we get a lot of rain around that time plum through May and the plants love it! and they grow very quickly... during this time I do not feed nothing besides it's hard to feed when it's raining so much which I do not mind at all… It gives the plants a giant Headstart and since I am in ground I wind up with very large Indica plants… next year going to grow both Indica and sativa I would love to see how tall I get a sativa plant! and a lot of times when it comes to feeding, I don't get to feed until usually the very beginning of June lol because of the rain through April and through May… I top the very top of the plants and the limbs when they come out and get at least four or five nodes over 3 foot tall as well I only do this once :-) I shave the legs and keep the stock clear of any debris… just where the limbs are where they start at the stock... just there only everything on top where the bud sites I leave alone... I will keep it trimmed like this And I feed with my own organic teas that I blend together, one for veg and one for flour Nutrient uptake is immediately I only do this after they bounce back from the topping and shaving the legs… they explode Then I feed the veg tea usually two or three times… after they bounce back from topping and shaving the legs I water in between feedings I have a 55 gallon drum that I fill up and let it dechlorinate… and run the pH down to 6.2 to 6.5-ish It's right beside my garden :-) in the middle of May and then in the middle of June of feed again, and then at the end of July I will feed of course at the same time in May, June and July I will be adding in silica blast because of the weather will start getting hotter sometimes beginning but normally at the end of June... I start feeding silica blast this time the beginning of June through August and in August it gets extremely hot… the silica blast seriously helps! I will add silica blast one more time in the middle of August and then swapping to a flower tea with extra NPK boosters, and this is when they explode in stretch and in growth in Bud weight extremely! I begin this immediately at the end of August that's when time starts to flip and will be feeding every other third week plumb into the first week of October flushing for the last three weeks up until harvest...😎 I am growing my own medical marijuana… I am in Oklahoma :-) I am 100% blind and love growing!🥰 and I found your show very informative I might think about using grow dots but only with my auto flower grow next time… For my auto flower run I use 7 gallon cloth pots… here are the strains I'm rocking and rolling this year one is (a wonderful smelling super super sticky extremely gassy frozen black cherry I recommend this girl extremely!!!) I ordered the seeds from Spain, next... from Canada, I got the seeds from Med Mann from here inside of UA-cam believe it or not… You can find him at medman.com and the plants they was wonderful!!! running them again this year...... they were regular seeds but they still produced females! The names are rockstar, original Headbanger, Master Kush… The auto flowers I like to run come from growers choice seeds... the seeds come out of California... i've never had a problem with this company some people have... I deal with them over the phone they make my orders and everything… there's not very many companies that you can talk to by phone and to make an order... lol lol the strains I like to get for auto flowers is critical purple and cotton candy Kush… and the plants that I got from Med Man for Indica plants they was every bit of 7 foot tall with massive sticky buds I loved it! and they're on their way to be that tall again this year......🥰 I do suggest the plants I also extremely extremely suggest the frozen black cherry and if you like autoflowers the cotton candy Kush smells exactly like it sounds and it taste great it's an amazing plant… critical purple for an auto flower it got very large and has a very strong Skunky pungent barnyard odor and the buds got very large and beautiful she got little over 3 foot tall... for a auto flower that's pretty large! she produced 4 1/2 ounces of dry weight not bad at all the cotton candy Kush I got 3 ounces I fell in love with those strains for auto flowers immediately! lol and the girls from Canada love them as well that's why I'm running them again this year! I didn't get the auto flowers this year didn't have the funds 🥰 sorry for rambling so much lol I just get excited when I talk about gardening!😎 thank you for your show I really enjoyed it…
I’ve been growing for over 20 yrs now. For a long time before it was legal it was small indoor grows or gorilla mountain side growing. Outdoor I prefer 7-10 gallon and that does well. The main two roots will find their way into the ground and the plants become monsters yielding over a lb outdoor. Indoor I like one month veg after seedling stage is over, about 3 weeks. Then right to flower. 4-5 gallon works well for nice size buds with this long of flower. Drywall compound buckets are now only 4.5 gallon with shrink flation but they’re now black so no need to paint anymore! Cheers I love your videos on insight of your preferred grow methods
I use 3 gallon for autos and a 5 gallon for photos (both fiber pots). I do not like to transpplant (had many mistakes transplanting) but after this video I may start my photo plants in slolo cups. Although I just harvested an auto that was fully grown in a solo cup, long story. I fertilized the heck out of it most every day. I ended up getting one bud off the top.
I grow 6 plants at 12/12 from start to finish. I use small 1gal cloth pots. I have a 2x2 tent. Get about 2.5 to 3.5 ounces. Sometimes I have some left at the next harvest 😀
I just grew 4 Gorilla Cookies autos, 3 inside 1 outside, inside in a 2x2 ,got 2.5 oz each 3 gallon bags. 1 outside in a 7 gallon got close to 6 oz 160 grams dry. Not sure which made the most difference, the pot size or the Sun vs LED. Currently have 6 outside in 10 gallon "photos" tropicana banana,skunk#1,Grand daddy Purple 2 of each And 6 autos in 7 gallons. Do si do 33,Gorilla Punch,Purple Punch @2 each
I go from clear solo sized cups ( so I can see when the roots are getting near the bottom) to 4-5 gallon buckets for outside growing. I really don’t want a main cola height high enough that I need a ladder to examine it. I usually end up with 5-6 footers and after harvest I dump the soil out and the root ball has completely filled the container. This in a climate close to Niagara Falls. I drill dozens of holes through the sides and bottom of the buckets.
I’m switching up constantly as a breeder, but once I understand the phenotype it’s 10 gallon fabric pots. Currently i’ve grown out 5/26 of my own cultivars and have been using 3 gallon fabric pots to get an idea for the lighting needed when I really grow one out for weight
I have a 3 tent system right now clones/seedling tent a veg tent and flower.. and the pot size kinda depends on the stage thier in. 🤔 solo cup 1 gall then depending on how much growth i get 3,5,15 or 20 gallon container 😅😊 for flowers 💐 🤔
I normally go from the solo cups to 1.5 gallon plastic grow bags. I veg them out for about 6 weeks then i up them to 3 gallons and send them into flower outdoor the same day or 5 gallons and send them into follower outdoor the same day. I have a 3x3 tent i veg 36 plants in 😂 i make clones off the same 36 plants so i usually be cutting 36 clones, the best branch of the trees every 2 months. My yield is mostly 8 ponds every two months. So 48 pounds a year.
I go from a solo cup to a 4.5 gallon pot and just take it easy with watering to start with. I can normally flip to flower 3-3.5 week after transplanting
In the early 2003-2005 range, I lived in North County Sandy Eggo. We called it Hog's Breath. Maybe Hog is the modern interpretation. It had a very unique terp profile that I have not smelled for almost two decades. Then my Hawaiian Haze CBD hemp came out with the same terp profile of Hog's Breath. Anyone is welcome to a cut.
I have seen enough plants ,in different size pots ,together,over a few decades to know that size does matter ,to get a 5 foot christmas tree style plant to grow to its full potential ,you need at least a 300 mm pot...the difference in growth between a 250mm pot and 300mm is quite a bit..root mass matter's..you want the roots to completely fill the pot when grown..keep potting them on from small pots to larger ,but only when the root ball fills the preceding pot..bobs your uncle ,keep it simple!
I wanna try a 1 gallon run with about 8 or 9 plants. What do you think how much is the yield of one plant in a 1 gallon pot with this setup? I use a 2,6 x 2,6 tent with 150w MarsHydro on organic soil.
Hey Scott, I am starting seed germination and planning on grow three to four plants in a diy grow tent. I bought great soil and three gallon fabric grow bags and I'm nervous that won't be enough. Plus it's my first time growing on my own and in my house. I need help maybe if you could give me your beginner steps I could practice please it would give me more convenience. Also I don't have extra money for fancy nutrients is there diy products I can give my future plants to sustain then and how long should germination be, vegging, and flowering be thanks buddy.
200 gallon fabric pots with 1 plant each. Don't waste your time indoors! I did it for 10 years and 1 outdoor harvest compared to several years combined of year-round indoor harvests in volume and quality does not even compare.
Ive had experience growing about 20 years. My question is that I heard growing must be done with a black colored flower pot otherwise the roots can take light and the plant would fry. Is this true? Thanks in advance from Ohio
Smart pots 5 gal and i believe in up potting i go solo cup 1 gal pot 5 gal Smart pot use the fabric pots but i switch soils from a starter soil into a organic living soil once in the 5 gals but i do end up vegging about 9 weeks sometimes 10 .....i catch alot of shit for it but i top twice to get that crisp even canopy and i start my nutrient flip in veg so at that 8 week mark raise the phosphorus so when you flip them they fkn shoot for the moon that first week than the bud sites start shooting pistils its s nice little jump start on flowering. I generally pull around a pound a plant depending on the strain.....point is just use smart pots. If youre growing outside do 10-25gals smsrt pots lol 5-7 gal smart pots for the win
Love the dots and recharge got extended veg too ill use that for photos and regular work great for autos just chopped 3 cherry cola from fast buds. Not huge amounts but the dank is dank😮
Not only size but shape too. I got an auto that triggered 24 days. It's a 4 gallon tote but not very deep. Last auto was in a 2 gallon bucket then to 4 gallon tote. And was happy with yield. Experience tells me 18-24 days if auto triggers I am not happy with yield. I choose my breeding auto males out of ones that show sex after the females. To try to get autos to show at 30-35 days. Those give me better yields. Always waiting for plants to get done in flower area. I dig 4 foot holes and between 2-4 deep. 2 stroke water pump up 50 feet to the ridge. Pulling from my 2 inch flowing point well. I use 2 liters for outdoor plants. Easier to transport to grow. And can fit 64 in a 2x4 veg area.
I like going from solo cup to 7 gal container (final home). Obviously making sure not to over water. Once in the 7gal, I water 4oz. Then 8oz after about 10 days later. After about another 10 days, I up it to 16oz. of water. Most importantly, "paying attention to the leaves and where they sit". Once I see them starting to droop, I water the next day just to make sure they're actually thirsty. I've noticed that the lower leaves droop before the top ones do. I keep uping the amount of water as they get bigger and also depending on how fast they guzzle the water
Nice. Its so important to do this. I've messed up. Over watering and even under watered. I watered too much on the outside edge and solo cup root ball wasn't getting water.
@@nickbeltz8602 watering the solo cup is actually pretty easy. All you need so you won't mess up is a spray bottle. 20 sprays every time you notice the top soil getting dry. It sounds like a lot but I've been doing it this way for a while and haven't had any issues. I follow 420 scene and use his methods. They work well for me
Two room six maybe 8 max. Weeks .. go right from clone to 12 12 no veg on a rope ! Full water up take all it wants rope size matters ! Half gallon of dirt and sea bird shit shit load of plants in a 4+4 room . Turn off one room turn on the other !
Outdoor . Dig a 2 ft deep min , by 3 ft wide hole fill it with good soil and that mfer will be a monster specially sativas , ive grown 8ft tall plants that get as much yeild as 3 outdoor indicas . Just absolute monsters outdoors
Yes it does matter definitely, depending on how your growing butbthe longer the grow perioud thenbigger the pot, ive tried 50L pots and 95L pots and i can grow a bigger plant faster and get better yields that way. I plant straight into the final pot,
Simplest way I ever heard someone break down pot size is this, you want about 1gal per foot of plant give or take. That and the plant will only get as wide as the pot, to a degree, tho take this with a pinch of salt.
I Always start in my final pot . Never have any problems
I always do that and pre-mix the medium with dry amendments to make sure it's ready for when the plant needs it
Always water with recharge before I put my seed in
You add recharge to your initial soil watering?@@johnlacroix8168

1 gallon per month of growth. Vedge 21 days flower 65 days, or 12 weeks. 3 gallon.

I moved fron 18l to 25l and it makes a difference. I put my seedling straight into the pot it will live in forever. No re potting
Size doesn't matter, what only matters is correct feeding and watering. The bigger pot the less you water and viceversa.
There's a sweet point between both, mines between 2.5 gal and 4 gal, no need for more indoors, watering 2 times a week should be enough
this is all going to depend on the grow style and media.
Bigger roots, bigger fruits.
When I'm worried about height I use a smaller container
5G fabric pot is gold. I’ve vegged for months and never an issue. Clone goes straight to 5G, I’m lazy is the main reason lol but it works great for me.
Side note, after harvest the entire pot is a sponge of roots and I recycle that back into my soil.
My homie swears by this method
Apparently using the roots is not a good idea.. it overloads the soil with nitrogen or iron or something.Will have to look it up again..

I usually start in solo cups then move them to 1 gallons to veg in for a month(or flowering space becomes available)and usually 3 to 5 gallons for flower.
That's a great idea!
Ok thank you. They just sprouted a week ago so probably just going to start over
Autos…You can certainly transplant autos successfully, Autos under a 18/6 light schedule has a vegetative stage of 2-5 weeks veg max.
From a Solo Cup 9-11 days until transplanting, for me.
1st 4 weeks plant is vegging
Starts to flower day 35-40
Rule of thumb: 2 weeks or 4-10” in height = a robust root system and several nodes is a good sign before transplanting, making sure to avoid letting the tap root/roots hit the bottom of the cup. Letting the roots touch the bottom will forever hurt your crop, stunt the growth and significantly decrease overall yields.
Here’s a 2 for 1 tip on Autos, for LST/Pruning
-When leafs reach outside of solo cup or container, from here you got about
30 days to train your plants.
For my photoperiods I usually transplant/up-pot 3x from seed and top/de leaf my plants multiple times throughout transplanting.
The solo cups gets topped once.
Then the 1/Gal gets topped 2-3 more times.
The 3/Gal gets topped 2-3 more times.
Then final 10/Gal gets topped & lollipoped
until it is ready to flower.
Depending on genetics growth habits/ceiling height and grow style.
Thanks for sharing.
Anytime, love sharing knowledge + being helpful👍🏼
4x 18liter Pot for 1m² is quite good for coco or hydro, can even add 1x 9liter as 5th into middle for overall shorter veg time to fill whole place
I'm sort of a hands off, final home, less is more type of guy. I don't veg that long either though. I love 5 gal but ??????? lately + (right now) I have produced some beauties in 3-gal side by side my 5's. Might just be establishing a thang for me. 3 gal grow well in my 6 x 6's. You mentioned 4 gal,... that might just be that sweet spot for me also. Thanks for the share. I have been growing for a while but learn every day. I love this plant. 👴
5 gal fabric bags have been working great. I'm using coco loco and was wondering about ph and fertilizing. Same correct or should the ph be different when feeding? Fox farms leaves bad information about ph levels and it almost burned all my plants. They say 5.6 when it was supposed to be 6.3-6.5 and is with seashell additive. Why give people the wrong info of leave it out. Kinda sus
Thanks for all the tips and help. Much appreciated. Cheers from California
Many theories about starting in Solo then going 3 gal then into 5gal,7gal, or 10 gal.
I grow 2 plants in 10gal Fabric pots. With 12/1 Gaslantern Scheme. Round about 3 months veg toping mainlining and scrog. My 120x50x190 cm tentnis complete Green. I allways germinate in the Last Pot. Saving 40% Energy with 12/1. My first 12/1 try was in 5gal Fabric pots. I realized theyre to small for 12/1, So I bought bigger shoes right away.
My lady says size doesn't matter. Just finished a run trying 25ltr,around 6 gallon pots but used my 17ltr,4 gallon pots on half the plants and there was no difference in the size of any of the plants, some of the 25ltr were smaller which shows there's was no difference, they're fabric pots with coco with a 10wk veg so they were big plants yeilding several oz each.
This spring/summer I have 8 plants, they are all in 7-gallon soft pots. My garden area is/was all set up for two OG Kush to be planted in ground. The soil is all prepped and the anti-gopher screens are in the ground. They were to be on each side of my small greenhouse. Now I put my home up for sale and he agents want me to move my plants, hide them if you will! Whenever the house is to be shown. So much for the in-ground idea!! I can put most of them in my van and the others not my quad and I can take them with me until the agents and people leave then put them back into the garden. I find the 7 gallon pots fine for a grow. If I want super big girls I have some 15 gallon pots too. Autos don't need the big pots but I only have one auto growing. She is a good size girl too!
NEW GROWERS USE SMALL POTS: I’ve been using small containers. I tried using 15 gals and I keep failing. Water issues. Small pots that I can lift work decently as I can gauge water very easy like this. And proper feeding and stuff. No issue. Sog is sooo awesome! Less veg. Plants double or triple depending on cultivar. Veg one week in a two gal then flip.
some people are limited on space and plant counts. everyone has to work within there means.
25 gallon outside 😊
Indoor with re circulation 3.5gal bucket is all you need.
I live in Atlantic Canada and grow 4+ outdoors in 30 gallon fabric pots. I think I’m going to be going down to a 20 gallon this season. I move them into my garage when it rains while they are flowering. Getting too old to be lugging them back and forth. Also I’m going to force them into flower earlier by putting a dark trash bag over them when they’re re vegging. Enjoy your videos. Keep them coming.
Interesting idea with the trash bags, watch out for excess humidity and moisture in the bags. The plants transpire during the dark cycle.
@@ScottyReal420 I’m going to put the bags on at 6pm and take off at 9/930pm each evening. It’s just temporary so hopefully it should be fine. Thanks for the info and the reply.
Omg I have a Waffle Cone that was slow in a 3 gallon. Went into a 5 gallon, trichomes overnight.
I have a simple rule of , for every foot in height = 1 gallon . And double up when you flip to flower . Usually from solo - 2 gal - 4 gal.
I like it.

Straight to 5gallon in 4*8
Bigger roots, bigger fruits!
For ne it depends on the system. Growdots I use 4 gals SIP buckets with no prob. After a solo cup veg.. 3 gal air pots for the drain to waste system. No problems. Big containers are for the living soil thing. Not needed in coco
Hell Yeah have the Grow Dots been working out for you?
So auto flower plants have a problem when you transplant them. Is this what you had suggested. Thanks for the info.
Transplant stress can effect an auto seedling and can sometimes cause it to go into flower early.
Any one else throw the harvested plant back under the vegge light to get a second harvest ?.
I leave lots of furry leaf at the bottom

I chose the wrong size but its waaaaay too late to fuck with it. Gonna use a 5 gallon bucket next time round
They need to make bigger pots rounder and shorter to truly get the best plants.But since they don't use the hight of your tent to estimate your pot size.If you have a 6 foot tent then use a 5 gallon,if you have a 60 inch tent use a 3 gallon.
5 gallon

I'm only allowed 5 plants so I grow them big in 30 gallon containers or earth boxes.
Great video! However, I am an auto flowering grower, you're wrong on saying it's a mistake to up-pot vs. final container. I'm curious as to what actual factual data you have that has consistently shown this. I have grow journals showing data, alongside pics where I am sprouting, then going solo cup, then final container. Please feel free to reach out. Thanks!
This is information I have picked up through talking with Auto breeders.
@ScottyReal420 Shame you were misinformed. I have countless autos I've done this with. Sounds like they are not very experienced with autos at all.
If I started in 1 gallon with grow dots, can I up pot into 5 gallon using more grow dots
when you up potted from the one gallon to the five would would start your veg time over and can run into nutrient imbalances as the bloom nutrients in the one gallon release. I recommend starting out in a solo cup with 5 grams of Grow Dots and only up pot once into the finale container.
10 gallons or more 5 gal for autos
Does Growdots can be added on top when re-using the soil?
You can top dress grow dot as long as you are top watering, but for best results you should fully incorporate it in the media.
@@ScottyReal420 it’s time for me to try it for my next Grow.
You simply mix a new bigger pot with grow dots and in it goes so of course you up pot with grow dots why wouldnt you?
Pot size matters, but nutrients matters more!
How can I send you an email? I have a question I don't want to advertise. Thank you
Solos to finals for the win I go solo to a 3gal bag
I grow outdoors
I went from 3 gallon to 7 gallon pots 2 crops ago. It changed everything. I veg 8 weeks. Start in solo cups, then 2 gallon pots then to 7 gallon to flower. My crop last August was 8 ounces......January my crop was 28 ounces.
What size area and how many plants if you don't mind me asking
@ttano1117 32 inch x 7.5 foot 8 plants. I said the veg wrong tho. I cut clones a couple days before the crop goes into flower. So 2ish weeks to root and transplant and 6 is weeks of veg. 4 mars hydro ts1000 for flower and 2 for veg. Perpetual setup. Promix, dr earth
@@ttano1117 I'm finally getting my grow dialed in.
Nice, always good feeling when you see improvements.
I've used this method for years. Solo, 3 gal, then 7gal. I add feather meal and high Phosphorous guano in the 7 gal which help my heavy feeders.
I use 2 gallon fabric pots, growing f1 hybrid autoflowers to about 30" tall.
You can definitely start auto's in smaller pots and move them up to the final containers within the first 14 days without much if any drawback aslong as the starting pots are sufficient in size though I would suggest 10 days is best and every day after 16 you will notice in the final outcome, 3ltr pots should suffice. The main benefit of auto's in my opinion is the ability to grow perpetually, as one lot comes down the other lot get potted up. Great info as always guys!
Thanks for sharing.
I've also transplanted autos from one gallon pots to five gallon pots without issue.
I start my autos in peat pods, once they have 4 true leaves they get put in 5 gallon pots in my 2x4. I only grow 2 at a time so they have room to spread out. I've thought about moving to 7 gallon pots.

Depends on type of plants...I veg 7-8 weeks. Grow alot of Photos so im making sure of the sex..
it's always funny to me when people make growing weed more amazing than it really is, it's fucking weed.
hello I'm not in no pot I'm straight in the ground… and I always try to get my plants out the last two weeks of April… why so soon? Because we get a lot of rain around that time plum through May and the plants love it! and they grow very quickly... during this time I do not feed nothing besides it's hard to feed when it's raining so much which I do not mind at all… It gives the plants a giant Headstart and since I am in ground I wind up with very large Indica plants… next year going to grow both Indica and sativa I would love to see how tall I get a sativa plant! and a lot of times when it comes to feeding, I don't get to feed until usually the very beginning of June lol because of the rain through April and through May… I top the very top of the plants and the limbs when they come out and get at least four or five nodes over 3 foot tall as well I only do this once :-) I shave the legs and keep the stock clear of any debris… just where the limbs are where they start at the stock... just there only everything on top where the bud sites I leave alone... I will keep it trimmed like this And I feed with my own organic teas that I blend together, one for veg and one for flour
Nutrient uptake is immediately I only do this after they bounce back from the topping and shaving the legs… they explode Then I feed the veg tea usually two or three times… after they bounce back from topping and shaving the legs I water in between feedings I have a 55 gallon drum that I fill up and let it dechlorinate… and run the pH down to 6.2 to 6.5-ish It's right beside my garden :-) in the middle of May and then in the middle of June of feed again, and then at the end of July I will feed of course at the same time in May, June and July I will be adding in silica blast because of the weather will start getting hotter sometimes beginning but normally at the end of June... I start feeding silica blast this time the beginning of June through August and in August it gets extremely hot… the silica blast seriously helps! I will add silica blast one more time in the middle of August and then swapping to a flower tea with extra NPK boosters, and this is when they explode in stretch and in growth in Bud weight extremely! I begin this immediately at the end of August that's when time starts to flip and will be feeding every other third week plumb into the first week of October flushing for the last three weeks up until harvest...😎 I am growing my own medical marijuana… I am in Oklahoma :-) I am 100% blind and love growing!🥰 and I found your show very informative I might think about using grow dots but only with my auto flower grow next time… For my auto flower run I use 7 gallon cloth pots… here are the strains I'm rocking and rolling this year one is (a wonderful smelling super super sticky extremely gassy frozen black cherry I recommend this girl extremely!!!) I ordered the seeds from Spain, next... from Canada, I got the seeds from Med Mann from here inside of UA-cam believe it or not…
You can find him at medman.com and the plants they was wonderful!!! running them again this year...... they were regular seeds but they still produced females! The names are rockstar, original Headbanger, Master Kush… The auto flowers I like to run come from growers choice seeds... the seeds come out of California... i've never had a problem with this company some people have...
I deal with them over the phone they make my orders and everything… there's not very many companies that you can talk to by phone and to make an order... lol lol the strains I like to get for auto flowers is critical purple and cotton candy Kush… and the plants that I got from Med Man for Indica plants they was every bit of 7 foot tall with massive sticky buds I loved it! and they're on their way to be that tall again this year......🥰 I do suggest the plants I also extremely extremely suggest the frozen black cherry and if you like autoflowers the cotton candy Kush smells exactly like it sounds and it taste great it's an amazing plant… critical purple for an auto flower it got very large and has a very strong Skunky pungent barnyard odor and the buds got very large and beautiful she got little over 3 foot tall...
for a auto flower that's pretty large! she produced 4 1/2 ounces of dry weight not bad at all the cotton candy Kush I got 3 ounces I fell in love with those strains for auto flowers immediately! lol and the girls from Canada love them as well that's why I'm running them again this year! I didn't get the auto flowers this year didn't have the funds 🥰 sorry for rambling so much lol I just get excited when I talk about gardening!😎 thank you for your show I really enjoyed it…
I’ve been growing for over 20 yrs now. For a long time before it was legal it was small indoor grows or gorilla mountain side growing. Outdoor I prefer 7-10 gallon and that does well. The main two roots will find their way into the ground and the plants become monsters yielding over a lb outdoor. Indoor I like one month veg after seedling stage is over, about 3 weeks. Then right to flower. 4-5 gallon works well for nice size buds with this long of flower. Drywall compound buckets are now only 4.5 gallon with shrink flation but they’re now black so no need to paint anymore! Cheers I love your videos on insight of your preferred grow methods
I use 3 gallon for autos and a 5 gallon for photos (both fiber pots). I do not like to transpplant (had many mistakes transplanting) but after this video I may start my photo plants in slolo cups. Although I just harvested an auto that was fully grown in a solo cup, long story. I fertilized the heck out of it most every day. I ended up getting one bud off the top.
I like experimenting and trying new things!
Just seen videos that show the use of a double solo cup to allow roots to keep growing.

@@xjww8623 Hope not, that would be almost not worth it.
I go from clear solo sized cups ( so I can see when the roots are getting near the bottom) to 4-5 gallon buckets for outside growing. I really don’t want a main cola height high enough that I need a ladder to examine it. I usually end up with 5-6 footers and after harvest I dump the soil out and the root ball has completely filled the container. This in a climate close to Niagara Falls. I drill dozens of holes through the sides and bottom of the buckets.
Rockwool into half gallon to 20 gallon
I’m switching up constantly as a breeder, but once I understand the phenotype it’s 10 gallon fabric pots. Currently i’ve grown out 5/26 of my own cultivars and have been using 3 gallon fabric pots to get an idea for the lighting needed when I really grow one out for weight

I have a 3 tent system right now clones/seedling tent a veg tent and flower.. and the pot size kinda depends on the stage thier in. 🤔 solo cup 1 gall then depending on how much growth i get 3,5,15 or 20 gallon container 😅😊 for flowers 💐 🤔
I like it!
Start your autos in cardboard pots..then you can put into bigger pots by planting the cardboard pot into the soil👍
14 inch turn to flower it will stretch for 3 weeks at least lot of training
I normally go from the solo cups to 1.5 gallon plastic grow bags. I veg them out for about 6 weeks then i up them to 3 gallons and send them into flower outdoor the same day or 5 gallons and send them into follower outdoor the same day. I have a 3x3 tent i veg 36 plants in 😂 i make clones off the same 36 plants so i usually be cutting 36 clones, the best branch of the trees every 2 months. My yield is mostly 8 ponds every two months. So 48 pounds a year.
I go from a solo cup to a 4.5 gallon pot and just take it easy with watering to start with. I can normally flip to flower 3-3.5 week after transplanting
And once the plant gets to that size u like, bottom feed makes the roots draw to the source to drink and alternate n viceversa
In the early 2003-2005 range, I lived in North County Sandy Eggo. We called it Hog's Breath. Maybe Hog is the modern interpretation. It had a very unique terp profile that I have not smelled for almost two decades. Then my Hawaiian Haze CBD hemp came out with the same terp profile of Hog's Breath.
Anyone is welcome to a cut.
the smaller the pot the faster you will get buds to
I have seen enough plants ,in different size pots ,together,over a few decades to know that size does matter ,to get a 5 foot christmas tree style plant to grow to its full potential ,you need at least a 300 mm pot...the difference in growth between a 250mm pot and 300mm is quite a bit..root mass matter's..you want the roots to completely fill the pot when grown..keep potting them on from small pots to larger ,but only when the root ball fills the preceding pot..bobs your uncle ,keep it simple!

Ive had experience growing about 20 years. My question is that I heard growing must be done with a black colored flower pot otherwise the roots can take light and the plant would fry. Is this true? Thanks in advance from Ohio
I think we overthink this stuff way too much . I have grown 3/4 pound plants in a 6x6 Rockwool cube .
In the northeast because growing season is short, 5 gal pots are perfect. I've tried 7gal and 10 gal, made no difference.
Not fun to watch, only stressfull bla bla bla. Its a clickbait Show not a Helping channel for growing.
Smart pots 5 gal and i believe in up potting i go solo cup 1 gal pot 5 gal Smart pot use the fabric pots but i switch soils from a starter soil into a organic living soil once in the 5 gals but i do end up vegging about 9 weeks sometimes 10 .....i catch alot of shit for it but i top twice to get that crisp even canopy and i start my nutrient flip in veg so at that 8 week mark raise the phosphorus so when you flip them they fkn shoot for the moon that first week than the bud sites start shooting pistils its s nice little jump start on flowering. I generally pull around a pound a plant depending on the strain.....point is just use smart pots. If youre growing outside do 10-25gals smsrt pots lol 5-7 gal smart pots for the win
Love the dots and recharge got extended veg too ill use that for photos and regular work great for autos just chopped 3 cherry cola from fast buds. Not huge amounts but the dank is dank😮
Not only size but shape too. I got an auto that triggered 24 days. It's a 4 gallon tote but not very deep. Last auto was in a 2 gallon bucket then to 4 gallon tote. And was happy with yield. Experience tells me 18-24 days if auto triggers I am not happy with yield. I choose my breeding auto males out of ones that show sex after the females. To try to get autos to show at 30-35 days. Those give me better yields. Always waiting for plants to get done in flower area. I dig 4 foot holes and between 2-4 deep. 2 stroke water pump up 50 feet to the ridge. Pulling from my 2 inch flowing point well. I use 2 liters for outdoor plants. Easier to transport to grow. And can fit 64 in a 2x4 veg area.
Nice, thanks for sharing!
I like going from solo cup to 7 gal container (final home). Obviously making sure not to over water. Once in the 7gal, I water 4oz. Then 8oz after about 10 days later. After about another 10 days, I up it to 16oz. of water. Most importantly, "paying attention to the leaves and where they sit". Once I see them starting to droop, I water the next day just to make sure they're actually thirsty. I've noticed that the lower leaves droop before the top ones do. I keep uping the amount of water as they get bigger and also depending on how fast they guzzle the water
Nice. Its so important to do this. I've messed up. Over watering and even under watered. I watered too much on the outside edge and solo cup root ball wasn't getting water.
@@nickbeltz8602 watering the solo cup is actually pretty easy. All you need so you won't mess up is a spray bottle. 20 sprays every time you notice the top soil getting dry. It sounds like a lot but I've been doing it this way for a while and haven't had any issues. I follow 420 scene and use his methods. They work well for me
Nice.
Two room six maybe 8 max. Weeks .. go right from clone to 12 12 no veg on a rope ! Full water up take all it wants rope size matters ! Half gallon of dirt and sea bird shit shit load of plants in a 4+4 room . Turn off one room turn on the other !

Yes it does matter definitely, depending on how your growing butbthe longer the grow perioud thenbigger the pot, ive tried 50L pots and 95L pots and i can grow a bigger plant faster and get better yields that way. I plant straight into the final pot,
YES 100% SIZE MATTERS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I GO DRINK CUP TO 7 GALLON SMART POTS INDOORS...
Simplest way I ever heard someone break down pot size is this, you want about 1gal per foot of plant give or take.
That and the plant will only get as wide as the pot, to a degree, tho take this with a pinch of salt.
