smallest possible pot size?

do u got a link to the thread?

have you considered using bigger pots and planting 4 in each pot?. then they get to spread their roots and you still get your plant count.

i read somewhere that autos root growth all but stops when they start flowering so it's best to get them in the big pot early or even sow them in it but watch out for overwatering in that situation.

good luck

I guess you could get a crap tonne of two liter bottles

I take it by your spelling that you aren't in the US, where they prosecute on plant numbers. I feel bad for folks that go small, yet get the same jail sentence.

Fair play to you shroomy, that is a grand idea.
I had been planning on doing my next one in a couple of two liter bottles grafted together to make a nice deep tube but I have to say other than the having to drop a little coin, I really like the idea of the pvc.

I'd say avoid the PVC, if not for leaching chemicals, then for the general BAD karma involved in the production and disposal. No telling what happens to the other stuff in the pipe once it's been under enough UV and starts to turn that brown color - unless you paint it with UV resist paint.... but then there's more chems...

Right... so... Failing the pvc and I have not done my research here but lets say that chemicals could be an issue. Any thoughts on a nice tall and slim tube that can be readily sourced at a low cost? I would like to and probably will get tree pots at some point but for the moment I would not mind some alternative notions.

I guess you could get a crap tonne of two liter bottles into the space

2 to 2.5 liters will get you a solid quarter ounce, if you do it up right.

I grew 8 Diesel Ryders SOG style in a mini fridge I gutted with a 150w HPS. I had them all in 2L soda bottles cut above the label, so more like 1.5L. My lowest yield was 12.5g dry, and my best was 22g dry. Grown 9 weeks from seed.

I could have perfectly fit 12 but was growing from seed and only got 8. Growing from seed made it difficult to keep the canopy even, hence the yield variations. Too bad we cant clone our beloved AFs Link is in my sig if your interested in the results.

Peace
