I use a large pot. It holds 13.5 quarts. I dont know the equivilent to gallons but it's pretty big. I usually only grow one plant at a time but am sick of getting one male and having to start over. I was wondering if it would make sense to grow two small plants in the single pot. That would give me better chance of getting a female but im worried ill get two females. I dont want to throw one away but this grow I dont want to transplant plants either. Has anyone had expierience with this problem? would it work to grow two small females in the same pot?
 
just use 2 pots its alot easier , theres no sense in gettin worried about the small stuff , easy fix 2 pots if there both females grow 2 twice the smoke
 
A 13.5-quart container equates to 3.375 gallons (U.S.).

Unless you are growing dwarf strains that is a small pot to use for just one single plant. One decent sized plant will become root-bound in a pot that size so adding a second plant would only greatly increase the problem.
　
It is never a good idea to put more than one plant per container. If they have to be separated you will have a real nightmare on your hands.

If for some reason someone has to plant more than one plant per container first off they will need a large enough sized container so each plant will have adequate root space and next they will need to find a way to section off the container so the roots of one plant will not spread into the area where the other plant or plants roots will grow. In simple terms you make one large container into several separate containers that are all connected.
　
If you do that you may have to increase the number of drainage outlets because some large containers do not have equally spread out drainage outlets and by sectioning off a large container you may end up with a section or sections with inadequate drainage.
