Dont let Fdd see this thread. He is highly against this thinking. Basically, If you are providing enough nutes and water you can grow in anything. I have seen plants(FDD and others) that are grow in anything from a party cup for an ounce plant to a 5 gallon bucket for a TREE! So, no.

not tecnnically but thats the rumor you hear most often
It's just a "Rule of thumb", so of course there are exceptions! I would say that for most people, under "Average" conditions, that is a good "Rule of thumb".
Sure, you can "overgrow" a pot, maybe get a 5 footer out of a 1 gallon pot - but you better be pretty damn good at it and give it lots of attention! That's why it's the exception to the rule.

yes from the forums that i have read FDD is the man.. i was just asking because i had a plant in a 1 gal pot and it stoped growing at like 12-14" when i went to transplant it, the plant and everything else in the pot went with it as well, and i was concerned of root lock... so yeah i was just wondering thanks for the info everyone
