No, I have a 3 gallon waiting. Should I go larger ? I was told go 15 gallon, and I have been told 5 gallon would work as well . Still have got to learn a lot very fast.

I was going to point out you are going to have a difficult time transplanting from that pot. Take your time learning to grow. The biggest mistake peeps make is rushing a grow. You have a nice start there take your time.

I actually thought about that today trying to get it out of that part, so I don't know how I'm going to accomplished that yet. You were the third person that has told me not to rush it so I'm trying my very best to take my time and learn everything that I can.

3 gal is what I’m using most these days. Unless you are growing big ass trees that’s plenty of rootspace IMO. Some perlite in your medium would help. Hit up the search bar. There is so much good info. Read a few grow diaries and how to s. I learn something new everyday. Good luck!

Probably have to sacrifice the pot. Tap side with hammer it should crack not bust. Peel outside off n there it is. Easiest to uppot from is the cheap plastic pots thin flimsy ones Home Depot 1 gal. I start in solo cop. Put lot of holes. But they litterally fall out of those pots when turned upside down. Go fabric for final home.

I’ve destroyed more than one pot for the same reason before I figured it out haha. Such a burnout

Thanks

No prob. Anytime you need advice let me know. We are all learning and I’m always game to help share the little knowledge I have. You just growing the one? Outdoor?

 

[Okiee]

Yes, I just started with the one just to see how I like it before I really get into this. It seems when I do something I go Full Throttle every time so I wanted to test it out with one plant. It is outdoors in the sunlight when weather permitting and indoor at night time . Once spring hits it'll be outdoors in a detached garage .

Well I think I already am because ever since I got it I keep checking on this thing every 15 minutes and I don't know if that's a normal or not

Sounds like your addicted to weeeed maaaan lol. I spend a lot more time in my garden then I need to that’s for sure.

What would you guys recommend for lighting and tent for 6 full grown plants ? Would a 5 X 5 tent be enough room ?What kind of lighting ? The lighting I'm looking for at the moment is Viparspectra . Don't know about the size of the tent and vent. Also not trying to break the bank but I don't what to do CHEAP either .

 

[UncleRomulus]

I use a 1k hps in a 5x5. 6 inch inline and carbon filter. Cost me bout 800. If I was to set it up again I’d get a 630 cmh instead of 1000 w hps

 

[UncleRomulus]

If you want to go led there are lots of good folks that know that tech here. I googled that viparspectra. You could do better for that $ IMO. But if you just want one fixture you might be best off with HID light. Search for a LED thread in the forums and read up if you are going to use em
