started grow question 5y ago
Is a 3 gallon pot/ bag enough as final pot for your plant? I’m 3 week in veg stage now. First time grower, indoor. Very simplistic setup is used.

OK for an auto, but if it is a photoperiod plant, 5 gallons minimum would be my suggestion. The bigger the pot, the bigger the roots, the bigger the plant! Hope this helps,........ Organoman.

Tiny tent = Tiny totes
Is it true if you keep your roots small the plant will stay small? I have 2 small totes that hold 6 quarts each in a 18"×18"×48" tent. Each will have one plant. Size 14"×8"×5". Can't fit anything bigger in this small tent. Don't want to go bigger. No space. Is it ok?

Should I repot to a pot with drainage?
I have been reading that drainage is very important. I am using a very large terracotta pot, which does not have drain holes. Would it be recommended to repot, drill holes in the bottom or should it be ok? I'm hoping that as the pot is very large it shuold not be an issue
