What size of pots do YOU use indoors?

[BucketGrower]

Typically I like the 5 and 7 gallons. Im thinking of trying a round of 4 gallons unless anyone can persuade me from it. I'm interested in what everyone else uses for indoors only.

Your call. I use 2 & 3 gal in a 4x4. And I use plastic nursery pots.

Good to hear. I'm about to do 4x 4gallon pots in a 3x3. Should be enough. Veg time maybe 4.5 weeks.

I run 10@2gallons with a 4-5 week flip from rooted clone. 9 is ideal. Or 6 at 3 gal if a longer branching strain.

Interesting indeed. Do you top/ train those ladies and if so, how many colas do you average per plant?

I'm a butcher. I lolipop and scrog when multiples. Works for me. My outdoors and mothers get topped and trained. Mom's can have too many tops. LOL. I stop at 8 on a harvest bound outdoor. And twice indoors would be pushing my usable space.

Haha, awsome pics. Do you find with the 2-3 gallon pots, the plants grow dense enough nugs?

I just noticed, you said 4-5 week flip from clone. So that means you veg 4-5 weeks in a 2-3 gallon pot with your clones?

Yes on the clones. Dense enough is a matter of lights, plant health and good medium in my grows. And here is a pic or two of that grow. What do you see? LOl.

Very nice indeed! I was worried 4 gallons might be a bit too small but you have me at ease! Well done and thank you .

Indoors you need healthy roots. And 2 gal is plenty if doing short flips. Outdoors is another story for monsters. But bigger is not always better. LOL.

Best wishes. I hope I helped.

I do 3 gallon pots indoors. 4x4 tent with 9 plants, usually topped 1-2 times for 4-8 tops each. Fills in the space nicely with no real training other than the topping.

This sounds like my style. I top them and let the plants do their thing, maybe i'll bend a few branches manually with my fingers (hopefully not breaking any branches!) here and there and have them almost horizontal for a day or two, repeat. After enough of doing this, I'll start flower. I buy packs of 5 feminized seeds so 9 plants a run would be somewhat expensive. But then again, nobody can argue that the initial investment isnt worth it! Going with a round of 4 gallons this time. Im suprised you guys are actually running smaller than 4 gallons tbh, but then again you guys are running more plants than I would.

True on the outdoors. I'm running them in 15 gallons outside and usually get nice 6-7 foot plants.

Five gallon hole 10'ers here. I say learn to grow roots. The plants will reward you.

Best grows to all. And whatever works.

i think your muddling up pot size to plant size with autos, i could be wrong. but the larger the pot the better auto's do aparantly, im doing my first real grow with autos this year so cant realy coment.
clones are another kettle of fish altogether, im my opinion clones are superior to grow from and the way to go.
you dont need huge pots when growing clones when you know your stuff when it comes to feeding and keeping healthy plants. just look at michi-can's grow
i grow 9 clones in a 4 x 4 space and in 2 gallon pots and get great results
you may wish to use larger pots with photo's when growing one big plant or two large plants

Coco grower. 3 gallon Vivosun cloth pots. Last two girls I finished were run in 1 gallon Vivosun cloth pots. They yielded fine but I'd stick with 3 gallon pots.
