You can even grow it in a solo cup yields would suffer tho, you gotta say what size it is or at least give something to reference it by, too open ended for a good answer cuz that could be a 1 gallon or a 10 gallon how should we know.

Absolutely not. You see how the pot has a smaller circumference at the bottom then the top it would b detrimental for the poor plant.

On a serious note tho yes you could but based on the shoe in the pic pot looks to b 1 to 3 gallons you are supposed to plant auto flowers directly in the finishing pot no transplants so going bigger 10 to 15 gallon would be your best bet to big of a pot is way better then to small

For sure but if you have a couple extra gallons of space it can’t hurt to few gallons on the other hand can

deff not saying it wont but alot of new growers that come into my shop stress about pot size gives them a peace of mind also check out a few asian grow ops in Britain they have full houses of 5-6 ltr pots for a fast turn around

I’m also a no till grower in which pot size matters more really depends on method of grow if you are using bottled nuets the sky is the limit plenty of commercial gross use the 6 inch rock wool cubes for flood and drain no pots just rock wool. But from what I hear autoflowers don’t like transplants so bigger Is better although I’ve never grow any.

10-15 gallons? No. That is a waste. More than 5 gal for an auto is wasting water, medium and nutrients. 2 to 3 gal are most common. Auto would never fill out anything that big.
