That's a lot of feeding but big plants drinks a lot...! Before I use blumats I use to weight my plants to know when to water before I use fabric pots! I still do it!@salah. You can veg quite long in 12g. Once I got a cutting from someone really early and ended up vegging that one cutting for 10 weeks. It was a regular 12g ( non fabric or airpot) and it ended up with 3lbs. Mind you this was about 7ft tall indoors with vertically mounted 600w hps (in cool tubes) in front and on either side of the plant.
At the moment, because of LED I'm doing purely canopy scrog. I recommend having more small pots than larger because it'll save you more time filling the canopy out. It'll take 6+ weeks to fill out a 4x4 area "densely" with 12g pots
The place I bought them at advertised as 45 litres. I guess they are only slightly larger than yours dimension wise. These are 6 weeks into veg. I got 5 gallon fabric pots too for comparison. In my current opinion @6 wk veg, the 5 gallon pots are roughly 60-70% the size of the 12g. I'm pretty happy with that.
But I am feeding the 5gallons 5 times a day and the 12g 3 times a day. The 12g pots sucks up over 1.2gallons of water a day without runoff!
I do things a bit differently than everyone else, my coco is usually always saturated.
You must have a lot of work with your girls! But you must vegg fast!
Have a lifted one
