Jup! Definitiv. Je größer der Topf, desto mehr Wurzelvolumen. Je mehr Wurzelvolumen, desto mehr Ertrag 💪 Eine Ausnahme bilden da vielleicht Indoor wachsende Autoflower, da sind meiner Meinung nach 10 Liter eine gute Größe. Autoflower sind schneller Fertig und können daher nicht die volle Topfgröße ausnutzen, oder besser gesagt auswurzeln.

many moving parts, but sure it has an impact. look at some solo cup contests... the ppl that gow larger plants don't over feed, provide strong light and such... readily avialble nutes ("hydro" nutes are chelated and readily available for plant chemistry) will help greatly too. others get tiny little 5g plants for all sorts of reasons including genetics to some extent. better feed'em right with all the issues a tiny container can cause. so, don't think "if i put it in a huge pot, i will have a huge plant" ... cause it's more complicated than that. i'd say the biggest thing is to match the time frame to volume size... how long is it going to be in that container? is it going to get rootbound or have issues absorbing nutes etc etc... if so, the positives of why that happened better outweigh the negatives.

It can if given enough time for plant to root it all and use it. Substrate type makes more of a difference than pot size in my experience by a lot. The lighter the substrate the bigger they can get.

Not from MY experiments with pot size... I've compared growing in a 3 gallon and a 5 gallon and the only difference is the amount of nutes I go through. For me, I'm going to stick with my 3 gallon pots from now on - less soil, less nutes, easier to handle! Good luck!

Ich perönlich favorisiere für den Anbau Indoor auf Erde ein Topf Volumen von 20 Litern. Damit erreiche ich sicher im Durchschnitt 60-70 Gramm pro Pflanze bei ~ 5 Wochen Wachstumsphase. Die Töpfe sind jedes Mal vollständig bewurzelt.
