If you are cloning squeeze 9 pots in there. If you can get a tray that actually fits in the tent let me know, but a tray with a drain valve would be nice. that way you can just soak all 9 plants. You could probably do this with the liner that comes with the tent however all the gook that washes out will just sit there and fuck up ph and what not....., and I wouldn't want that ya know? other wise do a scrog with 2 plants,

or if you are not vegging for very long just use 3 gallon pots. if you soak them they will go 2-3 days before they need watered.

I am trying a run with 2 gal smart pots now, when i am done i will be a better judge of smart pots and size but thats what i got for ya know...

good luck with your grow.. i wish i could go perpetual and someone would pay me in gum......:cry:

I'm seriously thinking trying to squeeze 2 gallon pots. Or if I have to 1 gallon. What think? All will be clone? Just sticking loads in different strains different times to go perpetual and monitor how long takes to flower....

2 gallons or you will be watering every day and if you are going to clean your trays every it will be a serious pain to move them all..... think about how you are going to water too???

over all I would go with 2 gallons, if you want to cram them in there you can, but you will know after a few months and you can alway do a row of 4-1gallons when ever you want too...

Once you go fabric you wont go back! I as well as most of my buddies commercial and non commercial use fabric pots because of their benefits. The only thing about fabric pots that I dont like is cleaning them thats why I have use a cheaper quality company called YieldPots for the last 2 years. Their the cheapest fabric pots on the market and do the same thing as the others like smartpots and geopots. I run and help advise many large commercial indoor and outdoor operations and in this particular picture we were testing the difference between the GeoPot and the YieldPot. As you can see from the root structure their is no difference in air prunning or root structure. One thing I cant stand is how much time people place into the decision of fabric pots. Its simple either they air prune or they done! Most people I knew back in the day used only Smartpots, then switched to other companies but due to the material and price, im seeing more and more people using YieldPots. GeoPot 6bucks, YieldPots 3bucks same effect LOLYP_YieldPotsVSGeoPots_1.jpg YieldPots are on the left GeoPots are on the right!
