Just wondering if 3 gallon smart pots are enough for a Dutch Passion White Widow, Reserva Privada Sour kush, Dutch Passion Mekong High, and Kannabia La Blanca?

thanks:leaf:

yes 3 gallon will be enough, especially since you have the smart pots. they are suppose to air prune the roots so they dont get rootbound. but the question is, is 3 gallon big enough for your needs, or your growroom??

i currently have some 3 gallon smart pots waiting to be transplanted in, was going to get the 5 gallon, but due to space/size limitations, i went with the 3 gal.

that sucks, you paid more for the 5 gallon. lol. the 3 gallon will work and you will still be happy, if you need to transplant ASAP, but if you have the space and time for RE-shipping for the 5 gallon i would have them ship you the ones you wanted originally. or else youll be saying i wonder what could have been lol

Got my lsds and jock horror all in 3 gal smart pots. Currently in week 4 flower and some of the sativa lsd phenos are 6' tall. Looking good. Vegged 2 months. Next time def going 5 gal smart pots but these 3 gals can hold some shit man. Your def not gonna get too small of plants if thats what your worried about....

Hey folks I have a smartpot question too, mind if I butt in? Looking for pots under 10" - what measurements are your 3gal and. 5gal? Are they easy to move about or is it worth springing for the model with handles?

That's a great ratio you're getting there jondamon -- I think from what little I've gathered I'll be going for the 3gallon (space limitations). Sharpa - thanks for the youtube suggestion but my OS is too old to play those, I will check them out at my shop next time I go in though. You're right in 5 vs 3 gallon in wondering what might have been - haha.
