Default 3 gallon pot......whats a safe height before rootbound?
permalink
I'm trying to figure out how tall can my plant get before I will start having problems with rootbound?

She is 19 inches now in a 3 gallon pot and I'm on day 15 of flowering and Day 38 since Germination.

yeah I don't want her to get too big...I just want a decent yield for personal since this is my first grow

how much can I expect from a plant between 2-3 feet tall as far as yield?

its kind of an unknown as depends on how good of lights you have expirence, nutes, grow area, genetics of the strain, soil has a formula when coupled with watts.I have heard people claim 1 gram per watt but thats not realistic.If you did everything perfect maybe 1-4 oz per plant dry. Myabe less then a quarter bag if ya didnt

Default 1ft per 1 gallon for container

I believe the faq says that 1 gallon per 1 foot is "IDEAL"
