Which is 13.5 inches square and here are a couple picture of what pots will look like inside plus I will be using SCRog. When they get big!

From my experience with autos they start blooming when tap root hits bottom of pot but I only done 4 rounds with them.
Thanks,this is my second. First was blueberry auto and a 1and 1/2 gallon was more than enough for whatever reason but Im using 5 gallon pots for these and just wander if that's too much or adequate? I no it is not too much LOL!

Also your right about tap root in my opinion but mine didn't hit for 6 weeks and is 2 weeks into flower today at 8 weeks or 56 days and I still think it has 6-7 weeks. Though I grew it through cold weather making me think that's why it only got 20 inches tall outside but I still think it will have a big top cola but totally I only expect a half oz.

Should be more then enough I never went last 3 gal.
And Im sure your right because I haven't heard more than 3 except a couple growers said since this super auto gets so big for an auto and produces so much I wanna make sure. Thanks for your input very much!

In sure it is but there outdoors also after 2 weeks of 240 Watts led at 20 hours a day to make them strong. Also in 5 gallon pots,I would rather grow indoors but my wife can't stint it mainly because of the smell and i don't have odor control system. Working on 1.

Try some root aides like roots accelerator gold for soil or the silver for hydro.
I like using perlite mixed with peat moss but pure perlite is what I use for cloning and OMG get 98 out of 100 live buy my clones always outgrow my mother plants

I'd use the gold with that. You would be very surprised at the root explosion you'll get from it. More roots more fruits.

Really the goal in veg is to get as large of a root mass as you can to help feed the massive buds later. Seed plants are harder to gain root mass in time unlike clones they gain mass faster
