What size should your final planting container be? Should you be up-potting your plants? What size container supports the best root growth for the best harvests? Tune in and find out.
I've been following the Build A Soil principals. I use a 4x2 soil bed in my 4x2 tent now. Went from 5 gallon AC infinity fabric pots to the grass roots soil bed. Running 70 gallons in there. The plants get massive root systems and grow big and healthy quickly. Soil bed isn't for everyone. It's very very heavy. However, the soil is alive and never gets changed. It's a whole ecosystem now
I have used one myself, it is crazy how much humidity control changes with the beds.
whats your transplants like now? seed direct into bed? im planning my 2x4 but havnt followed build a soil before. im planning on doing seed starter then 1 gallon maybe 3 gallon if need be then into my bed
@@ScottyReal420 For sure!
They haven't figured it out yet brother.
@lutherniheu6079 I start the seedlings in solo cups then go straight into the bed. From Clones I do the same, solo cup to bed. You could do a stage in between but it's easier this way for me. Cuts out a lot of work
I Always start in my final pot . Never have any problems
I always do that and pre-mix the medium with dry amendments to make sure it's ready for when the plant needs it
Always water with recharge before I put my seed in
You add recharge to your initial soil watering?@@johnlacroix8168
I just started that practice outside 15 gallon bags I'm hoping the buds are nice this year also I planted Auto flowers in 15 gallon pits outside I hope my efforts are paid with huge dividends James loud photos and tricks Auto flowers 😅 happy growing 6/17/24
Scotty you never even blinked let alone moved eye brows when he hit you with the Free Masons joke.
Your a Legend Scotty keep em coming son.
I am just so used to being around High-C 😂
Mr. Never Blinks I enjoy your podcasts immensely and have learned so much. I use 5 gallon fabric and plastic pots to enable me to get as much sunlight as possible. Also I live close to the Pacific Ocean and get the evening wetness, the evil of plants with bud rot. I bring them into the garage at night and keep the fan blowing. Nightly inspections for caterpillars with a flashlight and weekly BT until the last two weeks.
I went from 3 gallon to 7 gallon pots 2 crops ago. It changed everything. I veg 8 weeks. Start in solo cups, then 2 gallon pots then to 7 gallon to flower. My crop last August was 8 ounces......January my crop was 28 ounces.
What size area and how many plants if you don't mind me asking
@ttano1117 32 inch x 7.5 foot 8 plants. I said the veg wrong tho. I cut clones a couple days before the crop goes into flower. So 2ish weeks to root and transplant and 6 is weeks of veg. 4 mars hydro ts1000 for flower and 2 for veg. Perpetual setup. Promix, dr earth
@@ttano1117 I'm finally getting my grow dialed in.
Nice, always good feeling when you see improvements.
I've used this method for years. Solo, 3 gal, then 7gal. I add feather meal and high Phosphorous guano in the 7 gal which help my heavy feeders.
I used to up size pots, found it to be a pain ,but to be honest i've been changing things slightly every grow, trying different things to see what works best for what i want, then again i like the challenge of changing it up
Definitely dig the question and answer short format vids. Works good and Scotty is so attentive and into it.
Great job bros, props.
Hello Scotty I am currently on my 8th run. Your helpful advice has helped me tremendously. Thanks for all the hard work Keep it up 👊🤙
Thank you, we will keep making these as long as you keep watching!
@@ScottyReal420 how long have u grown for @scottyreal420
I love these two guys the guy asking the questions i imagine knows just as much as the other one so knows exactly what kind of questions to ask to give us short cuts to info uk 👍
Right! The guy asking Q's sounds like Mr. Grow it. not sure if it's him tho.
Hmmmmm🤔🙈🙉🙊
I’ve been growing for over 20 yrs now. For a long time before it was legal it was small indoor grows or gorilla mountain side growing. Outdoor I prefer 7-10 gallon and that does well. The main two roots will find their way into the ground and the plants become monsters yielding over a lb outdoor. Indoor I like one month veg after seedling stage is over, about 3 weeks. Then right to flower. 4-5 gallon works well for nice size buds with this long of flower. Drywall compound buckets are now only 4.5 gallon with shrink flation but they’re now black so no need to paint anymore! Cheers I love your videos on insight of your preferred grow methods
You can definitely start auto's in smaller pots and move them up to the final containers within the first 14 days without much if any drawback aslong as the starting pots are sufficient in size though I would suggest 10 days is best and every day after 16 you will notice in the final outcome, 3ltr pots should suffice. The main benefit of auto's in my opinion is the ability to grow perpetually, as one lot comes down the other lot get potted up. Great info as always guys!
Thanks for sharing.
I've also transplanted autos from one gallon pots to five gallon pots without issue.
I start my autos in peat pods, once they have 4 true leaves they get put in 5 gallon pots in my 2x4. I only grow 2 at a time so they have room to spread out. I've thought about moving to 7 gallon pots.

I've been a big fan of the DGC scotty good to see your short videos and sharing
hello I'm not in no pot I'm straight in the ground… and I always try to get my plants out the last two weeks of April… why so soon? Because we get a lot of rain around that time plum through May and the plants love it! and they grow very quickly... during this time I do not feed nothing besides it's hard to feed when it's raining so much which I do not mind at all… It gives the plants a giant Headstart and since I am in ground I wind up with very large Indica plants… next year going to grow both Indica and sativa I would love to see how tall I get a sativa plant! and a lot of times when it comes to feeding, I don't get to feed until usually the very beginning of June lol because of the rain through April and through May… I top the very top of the plants and the limbs when they come out and get at least four or five nodes over 3 foot tall as well I only do this once :-) I shave the legs and keep the stock clear of any debris… just where the limbs are where they start at the stock... just there only everything on top where the bud sites I leave alone... I will keep it trimmed like this And I feed with my own organic teas that I blend together, one for veg and one for flour
Nutrient uptake is immediately I only do this after they bounce back from the topping and shaving the legs… they explode Then I feed the veg tea usually two or three times… after they bounce back from topping and shaving the legs I water in between feedings I have a 55 gallon drum that I fill up and let it dechlorinate… and run the pH down to 6.2 to 6.5-ish It's right beside my garden :-) in the middle of May and then in the middle of June of feed again, and then at the end of July I will feed of course at the same time in May, June and July I will be adding in silica blast because of the weather will start getting hotter sometimes beginning but normally at the end of June... I start feeding silica blast this time the beginning of June through August and in August it gets extremely hot… the silica blast seriously helps! I will add silica blast one more time in the middle of August and then swapping to a flower tea with extra NPK boosters, and this is when they explode in stretch and in growth in Bud weight extremely! I begin this immediately at the end of August that's when time starts to flip and will be feeding every other third week plumb into the first week of October flushing for the last three weeks up until harvest...😎 I am growing my own medical marijuana… I am in Oklahoma :-) I am 100% blind and love growing!🥰 and I found your show very informative I might think about using grow dots but only with my auto flower grow next time… For my auto flower run I use 7 gallon cloth pots… here are the strains I'm rocking and rolling this year one is (a wonderful smelling super super sticky extremely gassy frozen black cherry I recommend this girl extremely!!!) I ordered the seeds from Spain, next... from Canada, I got the seeds from Med Mann from here inside of RUclips believe it or not…
You can find him at medman.com and the plants they was wonderful!!! running them again this year...... they were regular seeds but they still produced females! The names are rockstar, original Headbanger, Master Kush… The auto flowers I like to run come from growers choice seeds... the seeds come out of California... i've never had a problem with this company some people have...
I deal with them over the phone they make my orders and everything… there's not very many companies that you can talk to by phone and to make an order... lol lol the strains I like to get for auto flowers is critical purple and cotton candy Kush… and the plants that I got from Med Man for Indica plants they was every bit of 7 foot tall with massive sticky buds I loved it! and they're on their way to be that tall again this year......🥰 I do suggest the plants I also extremely extremely suggest the frozen black cherry and if you like autoflowers the cotton candy Kush smells exactly like it sounds and it taste great it's an amazing plant… critical purple for an auto flower it got very large and has a very strong Skunky pungent barnyard odor and the buds got very large and beautiful she got little over 3 foot tall...
for a auto flower that's pretty large! she produced 4 1/2 ounces of dry weight not bad at all the cotton candy Kush I got 3 ounces I fell in love with those strains for auto flowers immediately! lol and the girls from Canada love them as well that's why I'm running them again this year! I didn't get the auto flowers this year didn't have the funds 🥰 sorry for rambling so much lol I just get excited when I talk about gardening!😎 thank you for your show I really enjoyed it…
I’m switching up constantly as a breeder, but once I understand the phenotype it’s 10 gallon fabric pots. Currently i’ve grown out 5/26 of my own cultivars and have been using 3 gallon fabric pots to get an idea for the lighting needed when I really grow one out for weight
Ok thank you. They just sprouted a week ago so probably just going to start over
I go from clear solo sized cups ( so I can see when the roots are getting near the bottom) to 4-5 gallon buckets for outside growing. I really don’t want a main cola height high enough that I need a ladder to examine it. I usually end up with 5-6 footers and after harvest I dump the soil out and the root ball has completely filled the container. This in a climate close to Niagara Falls. I drill dozens of holes through the sides and bottom of the buckets.
Great job, guys as usual.
I started with 5 gal airpots and with up putting from a 2 gal airpot (airpots are extremely easy to up pot, just undo the screws holding the pot together, peal it off the root ball and drop it in your new larger airpot). Guru was right, though, airpots are kind of a PIA to water when dry, and it can run out the side holes if water in too fast.
Now I've been using autopots and their 4 gallon pots with their "Airbase" . To add air to the roots
Great vid guys!🤙🍻💨
Good Stuff! Thanks for sharing @your_mailman_Grows
Love all ur content scotty and hi c....some day I'll be on the show!!!
I grow 6 plants at 12/12 from start to finish. I use small 1gal cloth pots. I have a 2x2 tent. Get about 2.5 to 3.5 ounces. Sometimes I have some left at the next harvest 😀
Same here but with 3 gallon. So I really think it's a myth
@@dmo848 I need a bigger tent and light
Only 3 oz from 6 plants?
Great info guys.
I love the Earth Box 💪 It’s 15 gallons of kick ass !!!
i have been using 10 gallon fabric, but i am thinking of doing the 15 gallon Earth Boxes next time.
@@truthonly7699 They work really well. Definitely upped my grows 💪 Less work and better yields for sure. Try one they’re magic 🪄
scotty great work love the show looking at trying the grow dots
Lots of really great information as always ! I always hated growing in small pots or containers because of all the watering you have to do . If I grow in a container it has to be really large . I grow in one of the kids old plastic sand pits shaped like a boat for years lol . Thanks for sharing and have a great day !
I wat to see photos of this boat 😂
@@ScottyReal420 It's on some on my videos' on RUclips lol
@@ScottyReal420 mee tooo!
I use 3 gallon for autos and a 5 gallon for photos (both fiber pots). I do not like to transpplant (had many mistakes transplanting) but after this video I may start my photo plants in slolo cups. Although I just harvested an auto that was fully grown in a solo cup, long story. I fertilized the heck out of it most every day. I ended up getting one bud off the top.
I like experimenting and trying new things!
Just seen videos that show the use of a double solo cup to allow roots to keep growing.
Uppotting was one of the best practices i learned and saw & have real robust clones!! So i go from nursery cups alittle bigger than solo cups. After i see roots or new growth i than uppot to 1/2 gal. Containers. Intil its close to go into bloom, than ill go for 3 gal. Container final!! I got over 3 foot Pink Runtz in my 1/2 gal. Containers.... i used to go from the solo cup to 3 gal. Thats definetly a no go... the transcition from veg. To bloom takes longer and i feel lose body mass!!! Peace love & chicken grease!! Love from Massachusetts......❤❤❤
Thanks for sharing.
Gonna be starting my 1st grow in a month or so. Going to do grow dots with 1 of my 2 plants. Your work is awesome Scotty.
Thank you. Let us know what you think of the Grow Dots!
Biggest plants I've grown was with grow dots and recharge. Hit it with liquid koolbloom during bud. In coco. It was all by accident also. 8 punches from a 3 gallon fabric pot
Day 32 of veg and plants are looking great. Grow dots and water only with occasional recharge @@ScottyReal420
@@dmo848Awesome. Mine is going as advertised look good and haven't added anything but water. May use some bloom tho.
I go solo cups (16-20 oz), then transplant to 1 gal plastic then 3 gallon . I transplant when I see roots at the bottom of the cup/pot. I’m having less problems with ph with plastic versus fabric so going forward will use plastic.
I always up pot into flower because my veg set up is designed for 1 gallon pots
(More plants per light)
My current grow I started seeds in a 1L, 3 weeks I moved to a 3gal then into a 7 gal fabric pot and will finish in that. I vedge for a while 10 weeks total. Growing in a 5x5 so its not to cramped and fill out a 4x4 space. It works for me
Up potting for me.Love the content
Than you!
I go from a solo cup to a 4.5 gallon pot and just take it easy with watering to start with. I can normally flip to flower 3-3.5 week after transplanting
And once the plant gets to that size u like, bottom feed makes the roots draw to the source to drink and alternate n viceversa
i transplant my autos just like you do your regular. I use clear plastic cups inside of solid cups so i can see the roots. When i can see the roots I transplant. Never had stunting, never had any issues with yield. It generally increases my yield, I use Mycorrhizae when I transplant to speed up root growth. I wouldn't let the plant outgrow the solo cup though.
I have for about ten years started my plant indoor in April then put it out close to June, into a 130 gallon pot. Gets to 8-9 ft round at flower
Hell yeah that's some horsepower!
Oh wow make sure to post some photos of them on Dudegrows.com
15 years plus, I’ve never repotted, I do 15-25 litre fabric pots, huge after 2 weeks of veg. Recently switched to leds
Hey Scotty can you please do a video of spraying / pest / mold / fungus management outdoors? I grow in greenhouse and have a bug net. I just stick to a weekly spray regiment up until week 2 of bloom. I live in an area where spider mites and thrips rock out crazy during the summer (central California). Anyway advice on all those things would be awesome. I've watched all your vids and you're spot on with everything.
Thank You will will see what we can do.
I use 2 gallon fabric pots, growing f1 hybrid autoflowers to about 30" tall.
I'm growing in a small closet so I've only been using 3 gallon pots the last two plants that I grew I did it in 5 gal fabric containers and absolutely yes it does make a difference I doubled the size of the plants or better
Hell Yeah!
My younger growing days 5 gallons 4-6 plants per light organic. Now 9-16 plants per light 1 gallon in coco with nutes.
Big THANKS to you Scotty. Great info once again from someone that knows wth they are talking about lol. Always sending love from Bama ❤❤❤
Hell Yeah, don't forget about High-C, I could not do this with out him!
great show , this one had good stuff, i sprouted my seeds in one gallon buckets under a 100 watts of T-5 light just transplanted into 6, 30 gallon buckets for back yard grow under a screen to protect from moths etc. i hate worms , half gallon is the smallest i pot use and 3 weeks later huge plant , seeds in smaller cups lag behind larger pots when it comes to seedlings,
Growing my gals in a 5 gallon pot. Outdoors. Hoping they get big
Good information.
4x 18liter Pot for 1m² is quite good for coco or hydro, can even add 1x 9liter as 5th into middle for overall shorter veg time to fill whole place
Good stuff Bro 👍🏾💯
I moved fron 18l to 25l and it makes a difference. I put my seedling straight into the pot it will live in forever. No re potting
1 gallon per month of growth. Vedge 21 days flower 65 days, or 12 weeks. 3 gallon.
I grow outdoor, but for autos, a 5 gallon bucket is a pretty good middle ground for movability to growth size
I use 3 1/2 gallon buckets in a 3 x3 . Just drill some holes and you've got pots for years to come. Started off in solo cups transplanted at 2- 3 weeks.
Big roots big fruits
There it is, that’s the comment I was looking for… 150 gallon bags… 8-16 lbs per plant
i start in solo cups with pretty inert barren stuff for a week or 2 until they look hungry then transplant with nutrient rich soil into a 1.75 gallon. i get about 3 weeks in the 1.75, then when hungry i up to a 4 gallon, then a 10. i get about 3 weeks per pot and it times out so they are close to ready just in time to flip to flower in the other tent as i harvest the last ones.
awesome !!! I did the same except for the 10 gallon, in progress right now as I write this...
Thx, ya gave me a lot to think about with veg time, I'm a long veg in small area🤯. 3gl pots used in a 5ft√ grow 1-5x6x38 flowering tent & 2- 4x3 veg areas stacked on top of each other, younger on top. Constant cycling plants around. NOW IMO I'm vegging way to long, testing time😂 Thanks❤
Glad it was helpful!
I had some trouble with mold last year, this year I'm trying to gently use a leaf blower to remove excess water after too much rain.
I start my outdoor inside and in a one gallon pot then i plant thwm directly into the ground when i put them out my normal outdoor plant size is 8 foot tall or taller i had one ten foot plant last fall and harvested three and a half pounds from her alone so growing in the ground is the way to go id your state allow it
I'm sinking tires next season plenty of space and they will hold water. Drill watering holes. 😊
7 gallon felt pots so they are not too heavy. I bring them inside at night to prevent mildew here in the South.
I up potted with my 1st grow and haven't grown since due to area and other factors, gettin ready to start some autos outdoors which will be my 2nd grow. So I'm gonna go with seedings right into a 5 gal Buckets. I've just made that decision while typing and listening to this video
smaller the more control good luck

I start with a paper dixie cup with the potting soil put through a fine screen so you have no little bits of wood or any clumps. Pop the seed in keep in moist after it pops up maybe let it go for 3 days. Trans plant right into my 12 gallons black plastic pots. Let them grow in there until harvest time. I grow outdoors plants get about 6.5 to 8 feet tall with an average of 12 ounces of dry buds per plants. ( Give or take an ounce ) 10 to 12 plants 120 to 150 ounces a season...
I have a 3 tent system right now clones/seedling tent a veg tent and flower.. and the pot size kinda depends on the stage thier in. 🤔 solo cup 1 gall then depending on how much growth i get 3,5,15 or 20 gallon container 😅😊 for flowers 💐 🤔
I like it!
I like going from solo cup to 7 gal container (final home). Obviously making sure not to over water. Once in the 7gal, I water 4oz. Then 8oz after about 10 days later. After about another 10 days, I up it to 16oz. of water. Most importantly, "paying attention to the leaves and where they sit". Once I see them starting to droop, I water the next day just to make sure they're actually thirsty. I've noticed that the lower leaves droop before the top ones do. I keep uping the amount of water as they get bigger and also depending on how fast they guzzle the water
Nice. Its so important to do this. I've messed up. Over watering and even under watered. I watered too much on the outside edge and solo cup root ball wasn't getting water.
@@nickbeltz8602 watering the solo cup is actually pretty easy. All you need so you won't mess up is a spray bottle. 20 sprays every time you notice the top soil getting dry. It sounds like a lot but I've been doing it this way for a while and haven't had any issues. I follow 420 scene and use his methods. They work well for me
Nice.
If you up-pot when appropriate, how does this work with my growdots as they are timed for your growth from the beginning. Do you have to add fresh grow dots to the new medium and insert the older medium? Wouldn't this extend the grow period?
Yes it does matter definitely, depending on how your growing butbthe longer the grow perioud thenbigger the pot, ive tried 50L pots and 95L pots and i can grow a bigger plant faster and get better yields that way. I plant straight into the final pot,
I usually start in solo cups then move them to 1 gallons to veg in for a month(or flowering space becomes available)and usually 3 to 5 gallons for flower.
That's a great idea!
I used a 5 gallon indoors in my grow tent
I use felt pots
What if your doing grow dots and recharge outdoors. What size bucket should you use is 5ga. Enough? I've always done right in the ground. But with first time grow dots I was going to put in a container. Also my baby I wanna do the best is tropicana cookies purple. It's a big yield. So I wanna get as big as possible
I like to grow in 4 gallon pots as well. Now I do start all plants in a solo cups. Well what I mean is I have my 4 gallon pot and then I place a solo cup in the center of my pot then I fill all around the cup with soil that has Ben cooking for over 4 weeks. I then remove the cup leaving the hole from the cup. I will then fill the whole with a cup filled with pro mix HP and worm castings. This way you get the solo cup grow and don’t have to transplant.
Started growing in the Seventies, nowadays I plant the seed straight in the pot, and I determine the size of the pot by how often I´ll need to water it, and find it is easier to use a bigger pot which dries out slower.
We love Scotty 💯 legend
I went straight to 20 gallon trash can .
My record is 2.5 pounds on one plant but it was grown outside , so i'm going big inside
so for me personally when i run indoors, despite using a 4x4 or my 5x5 tent, i always stick to 4-5gal fabric pots. veg for about 6 weeks then flip to flower. for my outdoors i have 2-30gal main holes i dug wider then deeper ( because remember folks, roots for cannabis grows more horizontal then vertical ) then the rest of my outdoors are 15gal fabric pots. without stretching or training i yield around 2-4 pounds per in the 15gal's and around 8lbs from the 30gal ground holes.
Solo cups work great for me
Nice job Scotty
I up pot from solo to 2 gal and then either 5-7 gal.
What are some tea’s for flowering.
Question for you. I added a second light so i went from 35watt average per foot to 55 watts. Is this going to help my grow overall. Thanks
As long as is is not to intense for the plants more light will indeed help.
Hey Scott, I am starting seed germination and planning on grow three to four plants in a diy grow tent. I bought great soil and three gallon fabric grow bags and I'm nervous that won't be enough. Plus it's my first time growing on my own and in my house. I need help maybe if you could give me your beginner steps I could practice please it would give me more convenience. Also I don't have extra money for fancy nutrients is there diy products I can give my future plants to sustain then and how long should germination be, vegging, and flowering be thanks buddy.
I go from coco coir clone plugs in a humidity dome to harden off in half pint containers. Then veg in one gallon pots. Cut a clone from the tops, then into 5 gallon fabric pots for the perpetual flower garden.
Solo cup to 5 gallon fabric pot for Photos with a 5/6 week veg. Seed goes straight to 3 gallon fabric pot for autos.
Many theories about starting in Solo then going 3 gal then into 5gal,7gal, or 10 gal.
7 gallon soft pots will get me 4 days before needing to feed again with 50 percent humidity.i cage them so no tip over issues.
I up pot every 4 weeks until you reach 5 gallon pots.(using Happy Frog then Ocean Forest )
I'm going to try up potting. Ending with the ground outside.
good morning. I like the video you have. a lot of good information for a beginner like me. would like to know more of what you have to say. how long do I veg for and when do I flip them .do I keep my lights and fans on all night or how long.thank you for your time and information
I start in 1g pots with a 150w led . After about 6 weeks I will put them outside in 15g pots . 10 weeks later I get around 14oz average per plant. Not every one can do this. I live in Florida and it rarely gets below freezing . So I use it as my flower room. I just harvested a few weeks ago and I got just about 10 pounds from 12 plants.
Good stuff

Love the knowledge you share. Thank you. I have been growing indoors now for five years. 7-6 gallon pots in a 4x4 tent. First year growing autos. Been putting 2 seeds start to finish in each pot. I have yet to have an auto grow more then 3’. But have had great results with LST. I also like the 6 gallon for my patio cannas too. Big question, as a seasoned smoker I am looking for a strain that is hard hitting with long effects. Something like Chocolope’s hard hitting buzz with the length of Hindu Kush’s buzz. Taste wise, diesel with any other taste is wonderful lol. Have any ideas? I would love to know. Keep sharing I am a sponge and appreciate it!!!!!!
I am not sure on a strain myself but maybe another commenter can help you out.
That would be great. Thanks man! One more silly question, can the grow dots be used for hydroponics or is it only for soil?
i dig a hole outside and let the sun and weather dictate my veg and flower, watering and nutrients, makes for a healthier experience imo ✌️💚
For people who have trouble transplanting I recommend to water and then transplant a day before the next need for water and don't disturb the roots. If it's a solo cup in the next pot make sure you have a hole big enough to just drop the entire thing right in in the same size and shape of the solo and also have the new pot of soil already watered don't water after the transplant if the outer soil is wet and the solo cup size soil just damp enough so it's not thirsty but also not overly wet. Then when you put that in the properly pre soaked soil instead of that next day needing water it will wick up the outer new soils water for a few days wait to water until that slight wilt again it's better and easier to fix an under watered plant than an over watered. So that's why I say good moist not over watered new soil and that day before needing water soil never had an issue and I'm still new at it. Just one of those things I got lucky to figure out from trial and error
I wanna try a 1 gallon run with about 8 or 9 plants.
What do you think how much is the yield of one plant in a 1 gallon pot with this setup?
I use a 2,6 x 2,6 tent with 150w MarsHydro on organic soil.
The most i've got in a 4x4 was 2.1 lbs using 9 - 3 gallon pots with S.O.G. method, 3 - 4 week veg. In Coco coir.
600grm m2 is not bad

@@grantsmith505 i ran GDP strain and built my light with pacific lightIng concepts light strips and 80/20 extrusion. Also know as GreenGenes build on YT.
@@grantsmith505 GDP was the strain. I built my light with Pacific Lighting Concepts light strips. Greengenes garden on YT has the build. That was like 5 years ago and $1200, you can get the same efficacy these days with a pre-built light for $600-700 i believe. That said my light is still rocking.
5 gal fabric bags have been working great. I'm using coco loco and was wondering about ph and fertilizing. Same correct or should the ph be different when feeding? Fox farms leaves bad information about ph levels and it almost burned all my plants. They say 5.6 when it was supposed to be 6.3-6.5 and is with seashell additive. Why give people the wrong info of leave it out. Kinda sus
Thanks for all the tips and help. Much appreciated. Cheers from California
4 gallons tall or wide if space is no issue?
I use these 4in pots from Amazon that have humidity domes for starting seeds. I will then go into 1gal pots, then 3gal. And finally I flower in 7gal fabric pots.
Nice!

I’m about to attempt 10 gallon frabric pots in a 4x8x80” tent doing about 8 plants with 6 weeks of veg will that be over kill for my tent space?
I've always transplant my auto I cut my solo cup down while moist so I lose no soil haven't lost one yet but I have had one stunt
I run 5 gal from seed /clone. To flower.
Solo cup, 1 gallon pot, to final container. Outdoor 100 gallon minimum, 200 gallon if you have a long season (California, S. Oregon)
In the ground is better
5-10 gallon pots indoors
Small plants
Latest run in my 2x4 tent is 6 photo's. They're just popping now. SOG for sure. Was going to go from solo cup to a short veg in 3 gals then go to 5 gals when I flip to flower. This may be a bit much for the 2x4 so I may just run all the way in the 3 gals and see what happens.
Bust it bro … I’m in a 2by4 got 8 vegging ina 5 gal use all that space .. then I kick them outside to flower transplant into a 10 gal
I usually to 5 to 6 in my 2×4 ,with 5gal bag need room for fan and heater
Also love you guys this is what we should've been doing a long time ago. Secrets keep you sick
My outdoor plants veg all summer. I up pot to 75gal grow bags… have them out by Mother’s Day. 3lb per.
Lol ~ yeah baby!
In the early 2003-2005 range, I lived in North County Sandy Eggo. We called it Hog's Breath. Maybe Hog is the modern interpretation. It had a very unique terp profile that I have not smelled for almost two decades. Then my Hawaiian Haze CBD hemp came out with the same terp profile of Hog's Breath.
Anyone is welcome to a cut.
