Defenitly, the bigger the pot the bigger the yields, if the genetics is of a short plant she will not yield over a certain ammount but ig genetics are of a big plant you can design her size using the size and shape of the pot to your advantage

Can I do 2 transplantation or should I do only one for autoflo seeds ? my biggest pot is 17L
Just bought 2 new pots for the next grow, and I wanted to do something like using a 0.4L pot for germination, using a 5L one for a while till they get some height and then going to my 17L Pot I planned to put them in, Is it a good idea (autoflo) or should I do only one transp?

New Set Up
I'm going to set up my new grow environment with a new tent 120x60. The system will use rockwoll cubes and a capillary system. I will stress my girls a lot in order to take all the available space. The question is: in your opinion how many plants should I cultivate?

Dry and Liquid Organic Fertilizers
Hello fellow growers I have been curious if anyone has used both liquid and dry fertilizer in their grow? I am growing in Coco and using a super coco mix with top dress and tea with dry fertilizer. If I add liquid fertilizer would this kill the living microbes in the coco?

Low humidity issue
Tents 20'' × 30''. Using a vivosun 6'' inline fan to exhaust with passive intake to create negative pressure. I have a good humidifier but even on full the rh doesnt go above 40%. Not unless the room the tent vents into becomes super humid as well.

Do I need to poke holes in this type of pot for seedlings?
Hi, I was wondering if I could set my seed inside this pot without making holes in its bottom and sides since it was sold like this. It is made of a cardboard-like paste and I don't know if it could help with drainage after watering my seedling during the first weeks.

How do I "professionally" create a new hole/opening in my tent?
My tents are perfectly arranged in my home. But I need to cut a hole into my Secret Jardin DS120w, to have more direct access, shorter cables and a functionally-descending gravity-fed nutrient-line. How do I best cut a round 4-6 cm hole and add a proper lace-up closing to it?

May have too many plants in a small tent. Should I attempt to grow them all, or cull the herd?
I've crammed 3 young autoflowers (all different cultivars) into a 2x3 tent, which I now realize is a novice mistake (first grow! 😄). Would you... 1. Keep growing all 3 to maturity, use LST to manage size 2. Sacrifice one plant for the good of the other 2 3. ??? Thanks!

Soil heater
Got a soil heater today, wrapped it around the bottom of my fabric pots. Is that the way I’m supposed to do it? There weren’t any instructions on the package & I’m not big on YouTube tutorials. Ive also been playing music for them during day light. Do any of you do this?
