I have a monster blue dream in a 30 gal tote that
will be transplanted into a 100 gal smart pot and I am
wondering if this smart pot will be fine for the plant
for the duration of it's growth of 3 1/2 more months
or is it better to transplant in a 65 gal smart pot then
in 1 1/2 months transplant into a 100 gal for the last duration
of two months? I'm hoping for the former. 30 gal to 100 gal.
Thank you!

I would transplant into the largest pot and skip the middle one. Moving her will be a bitch when she gets bigger.

Thank you everyone for the replies!
Here is a pic of the Blue Dream taken
3 weeks ago so she is another 1/3 the size
bigger now.
It is in a 30 gal tote so I will switch
it to a 100 gal smart pot soon to grow for a week short
of 4 more months. I have 6 more blue dreams
that are a little younger and 6 GSC's that are
a bit bigger then Blue Dream plant in the
picture. They all have almost 4 months left.
I will be posting some updated pics of all the plants in the next couple
of days in the Open Show & Tell Outdoor 2013 thread.
Never heard of a squat pot. Can you tell me what it is or
should I google it? Thanks!

The plant is bigger then shown in the picture so would you
recommend a 100 gal, 150 gal or more since it still has
almost 4 months left to grow. Thanks and I appreciate the
help!

squat pots are maybe 18 inches high. much shorter than regular smart pots but a lot wider. ive seen a huge difference between 200 regular and a 200 squat.

Go with the smart pots...they are awsome. Check out my grow.

My plants are in 65 gallon smart pots. Were close to the same size of plant. 65 gallon would do the trick but why not try out the 100 gallon...let me know how you make out and good luck

That plant looks about 4 weeks into flower, maybe transplanting could cause unnecessary stress at this point in the game.

Well I've never grown in anything that big myself, maybe someone else has an idea on how big she could get.

Normally I figure go with as big as you can afford and have room for (within reason of course).

she could get as big as the pot if not a little larger. but with a girl that big be careful when you transplant so you dont shock the shit out of her. looks beautiful though. yeah get the measurements of the pots online. squats are pretty wide.

In the pic she was in reveg but now she is back into full veg.
Man was that close, I did not want flowers just yet cause she
has till end of august for veg then flower for another 8+ weeks.
Sure glad I got her back in full veg so transplanting her will be alright.
Blue Dreams are very forgiving and vigorous growers.

Was wondering why they are so big. They look great. It's my first outdoor grow and I was trying to look at other plants grown outdoors to kinda gauge how mine compare. Thanks and good luck, looks like you should get a high yield out of those.
