Get 5 gallon grow bags.... i used 3 gallon and it was to small. I am curantly useing 10 gallon contaners. more root mass the happyer the plants.

i did a test with Raspberry cough 2 clones one in 10 gallon one in 3 gallon. in hindsight i should of put them both in the 10 gallon. the 3 gallon was root bound. (11 week flower time)

I would sugest useing at least 5 gallon contaners, but that is just my $0.02 good luck

you need to monitor/control the co2 level with a controller not just a timer, it will make your levels more even and makes the bottle last longer, set it to bring up levels 10mins before lights on starting @ 850ppm start of veg increase by 200 ppm every wk, once you hit a 1000ppm+ you can increase the ppm more dramaticly, set the co2 controller to turn off 5 min before lights off , i also free vent my tent all night long, as the co2 system is shut down and not wasted and plants dont use it, start co2 use after plants have established a root system of sort, drop co2 levels after the 5-6th wk of flower to 1000 ppm and discontinue the the last 10 days before harvest:joint:

if you use a good inoculation system you dont need huge ass 5 gallon pots i use a 3.4g and i pull 6-8 ounces a plant, use the GH subculture powder inoculates, my roots in soil are bone white super fine fibrous hair roots, i compost the root balls in the garden lol biggest squash you will ever see, when i pull plants from the titan system its a sold root block weighs 20+lbs and looks like a spider webbing, i would post pics but i dont share images online sorry

How many plants are you running? If you are going with the 50 in a 5x10 you are going to want to go zero veg and tiny tiny plants - preferably lollipops.

Plants get a ton bigger once you flip to 12/12 and crowding actually yields you less bud than not crowding, not to mention crowding causes mildew, bud rot, humidity, and air circulation problems.

Here is a for instance - this is a 3x4' area and two of the six plants are removed in the final shot. Flowering started day 24 when the plants were less than 1' in height.

Progression - day from seed entering soil

Day 1,5,9


Day 13,18,20


Day 22, 29/5, 32/7


36/11
, 39/15, 41/17

This is today -
Day 36 flower (only halfway through).



Just 4 plants and pretty crowded... I might be able to cram in another two but that is it. So if you decide to run 50 make sure you go zero veg and lollipop em. This means you can go with smaller pots as well. Id recommend 3gal smart pots or some other similar cloth pot.

My comment was directed at the OP who I believe is going to try to flower 50 plants in a 5x10 and veg them each till 2' before flowering...

This is 50 non lollipopped plants in 5gal containers in a 4x8 and it was just plain stupid - please do not repeat my mistake ;)

I'm one of those people who can't keep smoking the same stuff, my tolerance is through the roof anyways, but if I smoke something for more than a few days it ends up leaving me with no feeling. So I gotta switch so I have to take a chance or ill end up buying bud still after I grow it.

Thanks man, I started a journal with some pics a few days ago. All of my plants except the White OG and Blue dream are doing well. The white OG didnt like the transplant and is still drooping, and the BD has some nute burns that need to heal over. Otherwise I am just waiting to see what I am going to get for more clones, as far as vegging. I plan to veg for 4-6weeks depending on there heights, since I got them they are pretty decent sized already. I am debaiting about holding the veg cycle until my seedling catches up lol.
