What size Pots?

    I will be topping and scrogging 4 plants in a 4 x 4 grow tent using a home made super soil for medium under a 600 watt HPS. What size pots should I use? Im planning on vegging for 2 months before switching into flower. I was planning on going with 10 gallon fabric pots for each plant. Any ideas?

    I did 10 gallons before but I revegged them. it might be an overkill if you are not going to reveg.

    I would go 7 gallon pots with 2 months Lst

    7 gallon air-pots or 5 gallon smartpots. Sharpen your saw for harvest.

    for your small tent . 9 plants . 3 gallon pots . three rows of plants perfect for that 600 hps. after plants are topped veg height about 8 to 10 inches so short veg . finish height is 16 to 20 inches . pull 2or3 off each plant . this is the best way i found for small areas . if a single plant 10 gallon pot veg 2 foot tall pull 8/12 off it . finish height hope you have the room with the light . 4.5 to 5 foot tall smaller plants are winning in yield . shorter veg . you can do many different strands . less work . higher yield . the quality from small to large plant i like the small plants better with limited lighting .
    almost zero pop corn buds . bigger plant need to cut lower branches to stop popcorn buds .
    trust me on this .

    In my experience 5gal fabric pots were perfect, 7gal would probably work too. Keep in mind the space to move around so you can work in the tent, especially because in a scrog you can't take the plants out of the tent to work/water whatever. Always wondered how hard it is to water the plants in the back of the tent when scrogging

    My tent can open 180 degrees. For watering just attach a piece of hose to the spout of a watering can with some tape and than you can reach those hard to reach places.
