Hi people, i'm planning my grow and i was wondering what pot size would you recommend for tall autoflowers 40-60 inches / 100-150 cm?
I would like to use the smallest possible pot size without getting rootbound. I know it's usually recommended to use a 3 gallon pot, but is it ok if i use a smaller pot for Sativa dominant autoflowers or 50/50 hybrids?
Also, could you please help me choose which strains to grow, from the seeds i already have? And which pot size?
These are the seeds i have:
SWEET SEEDS
- +Speed Auto
- Sweet Gelato Auto
- Sweet Cheese Auto
ROYAL QUEEN SEEDS
- Quick One
- Haze Berry Auto
- Royal Haze Automatic
BULK SEED BANK
- Auto AK-47
- Auto Chronic
STITCH - SHORT STUFF
- Mi5
- Russian Rocket Fuel
My goal is to grow multiple strains at once, as many as they can fit in 2x4x6 (60x120x180cm) under Mars Hydro TSL2000 (300W), without having any issues with roots and overcrowding. I would prefer not to top the autoflowers since i'm inexperienced and i heard it's a 50-50% chance, so i would just do basic LST and defoliating. I'm hoping for a minimum yield of 100g (4oz) in total from all plants, but of course anything more is a bonus.
As for the height difference, i'm planning to use some sort of pedestals to raise the shorter plants. Or i would just let the short plants grow naturally without training, while doing LST on taller plants. I don't mind different watering schedules since i'll be attending the plants every day for my first grow. The only downside would be different nutrient needs and pest resistance because i'm a noob, but i figured i could learn as i go, thoroughly researching every deficiency. I'm using the complete BioBizz line and i've been told it's hard to burn plants with them?
Also i don't mind different harvest times because i'll have a separate drying tent.
So if i would choose my top 4 i would go with Sweet Gelato, Sweet Cheese, Quick One and +Speed Auto (2-3 gallon pots)
What do you think about this, am i biting more than i can chew? And could i somehow manage 6 plants by adding Royal Haze Auto and Auto AK47 to the list?
Thanks in advance.
