heya viredd, its good to here u use the 2" pots. ive got the 5"ers and they work ok, but i think the 2" would be soooo much better. they would make it to where i wouldnt need the hydroton at all. how do you grow?( SOG or what not) im wanting to give SOG or SCOG with my next crop. now i dont have near enough plants, and the plants i do have i dont know whats male and whats female. but i took a bunch of clones so hopefully ill have enough next time.is there any downside to useing the 2" pots that youve came across?[/quote]
After the seedlings are large enough, and the cuttings are rooted, the plants are transfered from the 2" pots into 3 7/8" pots for the final vegging and flowering. They go from two, twenty-watt floros, to a 600 HPS.
If you want to grow using the SOG method, try for Four (4) plants per square foot. The idea is to grow single cola plants, that look like spears, that produce between 1/4 and 1/2 ounce each. Most SOG growers grow a LOT of plants, so you have to assess the risk. SCROG growers, on the other hand, grow fewer plants, but train them under a screen to stretch out and each bud site grows vertically above the screen. That's why its called Screen of Green.
