i veg in smaller pots then transplant for flowering. I had a 3 gal plant go through veg/flower (its almost done) and its rootbound and looking a bit ill.. 1 gal per month i would say.

i keep them in one gal pots until i see the roots from the bottom drain holes then its time to transplant

I kept 2 plants from seeds in 1 gallon ice cream buckets until they were 2 feet tall then transplanted. About a month and a half to 2 months tops I would say

well i tranplanted some of them tonight, that was a messy job but it got done, my clones i took a couple days ago dont look to be doing well, i dont know what went wrong i guess not putting the heating pad under the dome prolly was the cause

3 gal pot are the best man, just cant fit too many of em in a small area. 5 gal buckets from depot are deeper and smaller diameter than 3 gal pots. they are cheaper too

I am just putting an extra clone straight into flower in a one gallon. I lollipopped her nicely and am experimenting to see what I get.

you can grow a plant from seed to harvest in a 1 gal pot no problem...hell, you can even grow a plant in a keg cup...

ive read so many threads on it and i still cant get her down, i need a extra space to put them in ,instead of the veg area
