I had a 5 week veg from seed in a 3 gal hard pot of coco then posted up to a 5 gal and vegged for 4 more weeks and flowered for 8 weeks and she still didn’t fill out that pot not even close

I've never used anything as large as a 3 gallon pot when growing in coco. I use 9 ltr air pots.

Don’t forget coco isn’t soil it’s almost inert so a hydro medium for all intense and purposes.
people grow trees in 6”x6” grodan blocks.

Fuck I bet they dry out quick near the end of flowering lol.
I’ve used airpots before.

See that’s what I am trying to hear lol people swear you NEED 1l per week of growth or 1 us gal per 30 days of growth...I hand water at least 2 times a day more like 6-7 times a day during flower I usually put 1 gal in at a time in my 3 gal pots in my 5s I put in 3 gal at a time in hard pots never really liked fabric I know their “better” but flushing is a bitch and a half in fabric

Also don’t flush if you’re In coco.
Steadily reduce nute strength when you have a couple of weeks left to go.
I personally don’t go any higher than around 1.2-1.4EC.
feed at least every day and begin to drop down to about 0.6-0.8EC by the end of flowering.
within 3 days of multiple “flushing” Waterings you’ll be depleted of nutes and the salinityof your coco will have changed drastically and the plant will try to counter it by adding salinity to the coco to balance it.
always and I repeat ALWAYS have nutrients in your feed using coco.

That’s roughly what I did last Grow. So yeah you’ll be fine and I was only feeding once a day.

I got 20 ILGM white widow Autoflower beans on the way right. meow from what I hear their life span from germination is about 11-13 weeks many I can get away with 1 gal pots? Or would I hurt my yields?

3gal would be best.

Cocoholic. I veg until rootbound, then flip to flower. 1 2 or 3 gallon. The more rootbound, the more they love multi-feeds.
