Transplant Question...

Hello RIU community,

So here's the plan (more or less)

I plan on keeping a mother plant, an aerocloner (in a separate compartment) and 2 plants in veg, in one 4x4 tent, under a 150w MH. The clones will get 2-3 weeks of veg time, after they have 2 weeks in the aerocloner. After this they will be transferred into another 4x4 tent, under a 400w HPS.

My plan is to clone, transplant to a 2gal smart pot when under the 150w MH, and then after the 2-3 week veg, transplant Into a 5gal smartpot, for flowering.

Are the jumps in size ok? Should I use a 1gal smart pot for veg, and then move to the 5s, or is my plan ok?

You will want a bigger light In the 4x4, min 600w, I'm running a 1000w with no problems.

I just need to pull 1oz/plant, a 400 should be more than enough to make that happen, right?

Oh heck yeah, more if you can veg a little longer.

That's all I needed to hear, thanks


Aaaand, back to the original question?

I would go with a one gallon with that short of a veg time

For the entire grow???

I figured at a minimum they'd go in 3 for flower? And how do you think my yield would be?

You'll easily do that. Give it 6 months and you'll want a bigger light.

1 for veg and a 3 for flower would be fine.

I veg in 2 gallon for 4 weeks under a t5 then for a week in 7 gallons after I transplant.

Then why shouldn't I go from a 2->5?
