How much more would I get

There are so many factors that play a part in the plants growth cycle that makes this an impossible question to answer in a simple way. Strain, lighting, nutes, grow set up (dirt, hydro?) pot size, all contribute to the overall growth. But simply put, a month old plant won't be as big as a 2 1/2 month old plant so yes it would produce more. How much depends on the growing style /plant strain etc.

:peace:

Simply put, more info = better informed answer.

Yes good answer from Snicker, Nevertheless take into account that each cft of sand is good for a month of growth and that's why use 5 gal pots for long sativas and 3 gal for quick indicas whatever you do plan ahead of this and you'll be fine!

I beg to differ. We have 8 plants that have been in 1 gallon pots and continually growing for the last 3 months. One of my pots recently split so I was able to view the roots and we are nowhere near critical root mass. Now some strains, like my brain's escape for example, root like crazy and I'm sure she's a lot worse off compared to the mk ultra whose pot split.

Maybe because we're low stress training, it's affecting root growth. But in our clone cups that we're low stress training, we can see the roots and it only seems to make the roots grow harder. Maybe we're a special case, but you can certainly push pots a lot further than 1 cft/month without substantial growth loss.

I grow for 1 month before i bloom, 1 week before i bloom i transplant into 4.5 gallon pots, by time they finish the soil is completely full of roots.
