So what is a Good Sized Pot for an Autoflower

missnu · Jan 21, 2012

I really want to try those smart pots...They are kind of expensive though...$5 a piece is the price I can find them at, and my local nursery lets me have for free all the plastic nursery pots I want...I wonder if I could make one...I mean it is a pot made out of what looks like felt fabric...I wonder if just an old shirt would work, then again is the old shirt just going to decompose and I get up one morning and all my plants are in the floor on top of piles of dirt?

More roots = More fruits. Unless its a dwarf then its only Designed to grow so big and a bigger pot wont help. 3 gal for ryders and 5 gal for the super autos. And the guy that said 1 gal a month for the plants life was is spot on.

Here are a few I did in 1 gallon grow bags 7-8-9 months ago. FFOF.

Just to give you an idea.

Just have to water more often.

What yield you get off those @HighLowGrow

First two dark purple?

HighLowGrow · Aug 1, 2016

I don't weigh. I would guess 2-2.5 oz's.

Ya those are amnesia x ppf4s. Very nice plants. @bf80255

I think it depends on a combo of things, light, pot and strain etc I use 3-5 gallon

What size room is that and how many babies?

HighLowGrow · Aug 2, 2016

I used to use 5 gallon pots until I figured out it was a waste of expensive dirt. lol

I have 4 plants currently in a 3x5 tent under a KIND K3 led

Y'all rate a 600hps would be good enough for 6 auto's, in a 3x5 tent. you think I'll have enough room and light or should I take a couple out.

Current grow on the right side of the room. 6 is perfect under the 600. These are in 1 gallon grow bags. The tub is 2'x3'. You're good.

Everybody knows autos can only be grown in a ten gallon hat full of coleslaw.

Where can you buy the coleslaw for growing ?

Oldreefer · Jun 17, 2020

Every plant I've grown the past 15 years has been in 2-3 ltr pots of biobizz light mix. I have several reasons for it....1) ease of handling (old & kinda gimpy) ….2) get more in my tent....3)1.5-2.5 oz per plant. Why waste medium?

Mine are in 5 gal grow bags and they are loving it. Three gal would probably be just about as good but I already had these on hand and all my 3 gallon containers have tomatoes in them.
