Pots

[McLeafy]

What size pots does everyone use in their tents? I've used 20gal, 7gal, 5gal and now 3gal. My 3gal grow seems to be having issues with bud formation. Not sure if it's the strain or the pot.

what strains are you growing?

I recommend 3 gallons for Autoflowers

5-7 gallons for Indica

7+ gallons for Sativa

I use 3.75g pots and 4 plants per 4x5 area. I’m in coco so I try to veg them big enough so that I can water everyday. Some strains drink less so I’ll water them every other day. Ideally you’d want to be able to water at least everyday. I’ve gotten the biggest yields watering up to twice a day! .5lb-1.25lb plants in 3.75g pots

Using 2.5 gal pots in a tent, never used or needed anything bigger.

I've used 5gallon for most of my grows. This is the first time I've used 3gal and it just seems as if the buds are struggling to develop correctly. I'm using the same soil, nutrients, lighting that I always do. It's weird

 

[Jonny Rosin]

How often are you watering/feeding? Also how old are the bulbs? Any difference in temps/humidity since the 5g pot run? All these little things add up

Watering and feeding as needed. I check the soil everyday. Bulbs were changed 2 grows ago. Humidity is 40%

Every other day until they beef up and then I water every day in promix.

Maybe I sure water everyday. I've been successful watering just as the plants start to get dry.

Here is a pic. Have a weird stretcher pheno in there too.

Looks like nitrogen toxicity

I started using Dynagro products this grow. Maybe that did it.

They do look healthy but they are week four of flower and really aren't very developed imo

 

[Shamus]

Maybe too much nitrogen in early flower delayed budset

Maybe. I never used Dynagro before. Think i should chop them down and start over or let it run on? Will it finish correct in your opinion?
