2 questions, pot size (for soil) and reducing mold/moisture.

1st question:
Code:
I've been looking at grow tents lately from atlantis hydroponics.

It comes with/holds 25 2-gallon pots. Will that be big enough for my plants from germination to cultivation? I won't have a secondary
grow tent until that's done, so I just wanna check.

2nd question:
Code:
The area we want to grow in is a damp unsealed basement. While one day we'll have the money to completely refinish it,
right now it's just not a viable option. Using a grow tent (see first question) how could we combat excess moisture and possibly mold,
without having to spend money on construction?
 
You can use a dehumidifier to take out excess moisture in the basement. I'm not sure of the cost though.

I believe 2 gallon containers should be fine, or at least that's what I'm hoping because that's what my plants are in.

good on the pots. There's gonna be 25 in a 4x4x7 tent. I'm hoping that'll work for now. I really don't want to do anything til I can actually turn part of the basement into a grow area.

the basement isn't sealed though, it's ridiculously dirty down there and although we're going to completely clean it out before we start, winter is coming and I'm worried about lots of moisture. I was thinking about getting some thick plastic canvas and a dehumidifier and just sealing a section off from the rest of the basement. Do you think that would be sufficient for our purposes?
