Preparing a sea of green journal. Need help with containers.

Hey guys just wanted to say that I've been reading this forum for a while. Been growing for about 5 years now and very experienced in outdoor growing, specifically "guerilla" growing. I have my first indoor grow going as of now, a strain that I bred last year crossed a Hindu Kush with a sour diesel. They're going pretty great almost two weeks away from harvest. One of them has hermied on me, more and more bannanas popping up every other day on the super dense buds, but I've not been controlling them. The denseness of the bud keeps the nanners submerged as they are growing fast. The plant beside it shows no signs. I do however treat them with my own form of prevention of pollen spreading by misting the buds and tent daily with a fine mist of water so wind doesn't blow the pollen around. I'm hoping by the time I harvest the seeds wont have time to fully form. But hell, this is for personal smoke to hold me off while my Barneys farm LSD and Sensi seeds northern lights is vegging. My Lsd and Northern Lights are ready to be put into 12/12. I've vegged them for almost 4 weeks on 24hr light cycle in 2 gallon grow containers with a mix of sunshine 70% and fox farm 30% with added dolomite lime and perlite, worm castings. They are growing great and huge so far more and more everyday. They are very thick and bushy at about 6 inches in height. If you were me would you flower these in about 2 more weeks or now? And when should I top? I have 2 separate 600watt hps grow tents im going to use. My plan is put these babys into flower, "they're are four of each strain so 8 plants total" in 3 or 4 gallon containers and after about 2 weeks after the flip start taking clones to get my mother plant and start the next SOG a month later in the second tent. Then after I harvest the ones im vegging and cloned from i'll throw a sea of green in there and a month later another. My plan is to harvest about 10 oz's monthly. Do you think these two strains are capable of my goals? Im thinking about 40 plants in each sog tent? or maybe 30. What size of containers should I use for this and square or round? im wanting to achieve single colas in each container of about a 7 to 14 gram buds per container. I'm not used to ordering containers or anything they don't tell if its a gallon or 2 gallon they just state the diameter. Any help and input would be appreciated. Sooner I figure this out, the sooner I can start my grow journal on here! Looking very forward to growing with you guys and learning! Thanks.
 
Hey man, I like the setup you have going on. You really put some thought into setting it all up. The northern lights is a fine indica for the sea of green, decent sized colas but you might find the flowering a little slow. A strain that I would recommend is AK47, it gives giant colas. As far as containers go, I would suggest using square pots that maximize given space. I would recommend giving each plant a square foot, so a 12 inch pot might work best but it's hard to tell just from diameter how much a pot will hold. Good luck with your grow, I hope those seeds don't form. Toke on
