I was thinking about doing 50 in 1 gallon pots next run. veg for 7 days and flip them. Ill need to get a net for my 4x4 though.

Itll end up 48 cause 50 makes 1 extra, i dont like odd numbers so 48 it is🤣🤣

Odd numbers suck. Even when I am running perpetual flower, it messes with me to add 1 plant. Either 2 or wait. The number of ocd pot growers (like myself) never ceases to amaze. Lol

Getting ready to start a sog myself… nothing this ambitious, just some strain testing/hunting. Prolly more like 14-18 girls in a 2.5x4.5. I found these 2 gallon bags that are really cool. Only 7 inches diameter, but just over 12 inches high. Should be able to stack them in nice and tight and still give the ladies 2 gallons of coco to push with. They are for propagating tree cuttings, but should work great for a project like this. They are just over a buck apiece. Pretty sure they came from 247garden. Incidentally, hat tip to the dedication that this project has required. The world needs more people who are willing to try shit instead of just listening to the last guy. Cheers

Hey, I don't know how tight you want to pack your plants together, I like to have air flow around my pots to evenly dry them out, I'm thinking stacked pots will not have an opportunity to dry properly and those plants surrounded by others would still be wet when the plants on the edges dry out faster......with solo cups there is air space

They will be running coco/perlite and will never dry out unless I screw something up. By the time these ladies get cooking, they would drink those bags bone dry in a day if allowed. There will be some airflow between them though so the bags don’t start growing interesting things.

. Didn't turn the light on last night was too tired and didn't feel like watering either so no light plus the fact that I left it on extra few hours the other night.
