  1. Hallo im growing in my terrace I have 4 plants. I don't want them to grow very big but still i want them to have space for their roots. I'll use some lst method to lower them but i want them to be like 1.5 meters. Thanks for your answers!
     
  2. 5 gallon pot
     
  3. Depending on space I would say 2-4 gallon pots.
     
  4. good luck growing a 5 foot plant in a 2-3 gallon pot
     
  5. are you all nucking futs ?..I would not use anything UNDER a 10 gallon pot outdoors...

    seriously, a 5 gallon pot will be root bound by July 15 .. and will spend the entire flower period stunted

    @ the OP


    get a few 10 gallon "Smart Pot"s they will air prune the roots, stopping root binding, and allowing for great results

    4, 10 gallon pots should be covered with about 3 bags of soil.. I suggest Fox Farms; Happy Frog Soil, for a "right out of the bag mix" that does well outdoors....

  6. Oh ya 1.5 meters is 4.9 ft.

    Thought you wanted to keep them small though. Seeing as a terrace is a patio, correct me if I'm wrong, I'd think four 5ft plants will be shady with neighbors and stink during flower. Is this a legal grow?

    Have fun with the outdoor!
     
  7. I got a 4 foot plant bushy in a 3 gal pot in my attic right now,but its goin outside and I def would want bigger pot if I was to flower it
