smart pot size question

Guys and Girls,

I'm curious would it be better to run a smaller pot with higher number of plants?....65vs100gal? Due to space, i'm using like a 10x20 so 4x100 or 6x65.

Will the 100's yeild 2 plants worth more then 6/65's? I'm up at 3400' so plants don't go out until after June 6. Have them under T5's currently.Strains are Chernobyl and Cherry Pie. Thanks all!

hello priznnplanet :) i would say that its all strain depended if you need a 100 gall or a 65 gall/ the size of the plants when you plant them out, but i dont know the strains you are running :) if you want huge plants go with the 100galls :) i had a friend back in the days that was growing some huge blue dream each summer :) that was 100galls he was going with :)

Hey thanks, i've pulled almost 2 units off blue dream in 25gal. The cherry pie would put off about half that based on my runs with her inside. I have seen a few outdoor guys here pulling over 4 units, while the Chernobyl is a pretty heavy yielder. My space and numbers are low so trying to figure which would be most efficent.

100 for sure Ive seen 40 and 65 get root bound pretty easily here in N.cal and the extra soil/water helps keep the root zone cooler in the summer heat to boot
