So Im use to just putting them in the ground and not worrying about pot size. I know the rule of thumb is a gallon per foot of plant. Question, Is there a chart of what size gallon container you should use based on the days you plan on vegging?
 
Way too many variables to have a chart that means anything with that small of an infomation sample.... Wed need pretty much all of the details of your grow. ..Down to what strain from what breeder done in what kind of medium with what lighting and nutrients and what kind of training was done....get a feel for what i mean? How big is your room? How much overhead or expansion space do you have?


Now that we passed that thread filler, id say 95% of indoor plants are fine in 5 gallons or smaller and you dont really need shit like charts, get a 1 gallon pot and when you grow into it transplant to a bigger one
 
yeah I guess the biggest factor is how much perlite I'm going to mix into my FFOF. Like you said there are a lot of variables where one size fits all doesn't work (some plants are slow in veg..yada yada) Guess I was just looking for a generalization like the gallon per foot rule of thumb....but its never that simple in my world! I feel like my pots are too big for my current grow and I will shortly be able to tell once I harvest what the rootball looks like and I guess I can go from there...

Indoors plant in smallest container and then up pot to the next largest. Repeat until in final container. For sturdiest and fastest vegetative growth .
