Let's just say I grow my plant to about 4'. How deep will the roots go? I want to know so I can get the appropriate pot to put the plant in.
Your roots will go as deep as you will let them. That's why it's best to start with a small pot and work up to the bigger pots.
i hate to be the dick but you challenged. i checked some facts.San if you are correct then every book I have read is wrong. The reason you use the small pot is to contain the roots. You don't just want them to grow down, you want them to grow towards the side also. Early root development is so important for a good harvest that you might want to check your facts before you present them. You would be correct to say that multiple transplants are not good for the plant, it can stress the roots. If you happen to look at widows posts of a grow journal you will see the kind of early root development you would want to have before you go to a three plus gallon pot.
The plant has natural log to follow and it is written in its genetics...The plant will always grow side ways before it continous to grow the tap root...However this varies as when there is no water the plant will grow faster and faster downwards to hit the source of water...THe side growth is usually for search of nutrients not water... at least not as much when it comes to tap roots. So when the plant gets enough water and nutrients the growth is normal and there won't be a one way growth it will be balanced. Like everything else in nature...all things are dependent on a certain factor.San if you are correct then every book I have read is wrong. The reason you use the small pot is to contain the roots.

Could I grow 2 plants together in a 35 litre grow bag (also called planter bag)? I filled the bagi hate to be the dick but you challenged. i checked some facts.
went out to my library here's what i found.
MARIJUANA GROWERS GUIDE - by Mel Frank
...do not let roots become restricted....... you can use small pots to save room until you weed out males.
CLOSET CULTIVATOR - by Ed Rosenthal
.....small pots save space.... plant clones in pots according to final finish height.......
THE CANNABIS GROW BIBLE - by Greg Green
.......use big pots. caanabis has deep roots that like to grow down....
so what i read, if you are limited on space you can work your way up to bigger pots. but if you have the room you should use as big a pot as possible from the start.
sorry to burst your bubble. i have more books if you want more help.![]()
So what is that about 7.6 gallons dry?Could I grow 2 plants together in a 35 litre grow bag (also called planter bag)? I filled the bag

Absolutely.Sorry yes that's the full bag. So better if I plant each separately?
