2 clones in 1 pot????

[budgrower925]

i have 2 clones from the club roughly one is strawberry cough about a foot tall and the other is blueberry sour diesel but my concerns are if they will die since they are in the same pot?? the pot is about 18 inches wide at the top 8 inches wide at the bottom and about a food and a half tall

 

[I dont know]

Just buy another pot if possible and problem solved. If they are already in the same pot and have started flowering I would just leave them. They shouldnt die on you as long as they are being watered...

I can't help it ... "2 girls 1 pot" ... gonna feed'em organic? cn

Two plants in one pot is not a good idea, it may cause problems in the future, roots will intertwine and one could choke the other. How big are they? if possible place them in seperrate pots.

I generally plant 2 in a larger pot this is the largest I have done so far but I did have 3 in a widow sill box last year (about 1'ft each tho)

i did 2 green crack plants in a 25 gallon grow bag last year...
the buds didn't swell like all the other in a garden...
so i wont be doing it again....

Depends how big you are gonna grow them. Bigger plant = bigger roots, and you dont want the roots choking eachother out.

Rosenthal shows pics regarding limited space gardens and obtaining the most yield. Largest yield (square foot limiting to a single container) was 3 plants, untrimmed and grown naturally followed by a single topped plant and the least with an untrimmed single plant. The last 2 are obvious but the point is leave them.

Glad to hear that!

Glad to hear that!

I would never grow in a pot so small.......This guys says he yields on average over an ounce per plant out of 16 oz cups......looks like it to me

Lol, im one of those ppl that believes that root bound is bullshit. Ive seen plenty of monsters in one gallon containers before.

Yeah......I still wouldn't do it.....no reason to.

Imo it's one of those cases of "it can be done". But it increases the amount of work (frequent watering, constant need to mind nute balance, much quicker response time to unhealthy conditions) over a more usual soil/plant ratio. It's more of a curiosity than a standard or best technique. cn

Yeah. I would imagine you would have to water very often and control your nutes extremely well.

There 1 foot tall yes? What I would do at this point is just replant them into a bigger pot. If you try and pull them apart now you are risking killing one or both plants,or at best slowing there growth by shocking them.If you really want to get them apart the best way is to get a big container,fill it with room temp water,take the plants out of there pot and let them soak for about 15-20 mins.Then CAREFULLY and SLOWLY start to brake up the soil from the bottom up *let the water do most of the work*.Then once there apart you can transplant them into there own pots with fresh new soil *water after till all the soil is wet*.They still might be a bit shocked after this,but if your careful it can be done with minimal damage to your plants.

At this point leave them. Use separate pots next time or better yet, plant them in the ground
