Is this container good for growing in?

Hello, was wondering if using this pot that holds 185 liters of soil or 22 us gallons of soil is suitable for a moby dick by dinafem grow, hoping for a decent yield, opinions? I have drilled several holes in the bottom for water drainage.

Yessir, long as it has drainage. Where you planning on staring in that pot?

if your outside id make sure the black isn't fully exposed... this means having some grass or shrubs around it blocking light to it or taking white trashbag and cutting it and taping/gluing it on. Color makes a huge difference on root temperature when it is exposed to light, although you do want black because it fully blocks light from hitting the roots

Okay ill just wrap the pot with a white trash bag, thanks...how muc do you think i should yield? I get about 13 hours ofdirect sunlight a day or more

Yeild is impossible to tell because of so many variables.

I'd say 1oz to 2#'s is possible in that container...

Would painting it white work?

If the plant never makes it he won't yield anything. It's impossible to guess yield because of so many variables to growing. Genetics, growing methods, weather, pests,..... All can affect yield.

Probably! But giving you a number out of thin air just wouldn't be right. I would say do some searching around and see what others have gotten with that strain and aim for that. I know if I had a garbage can depending on the strain I would be shooting for over 1#.

Is this container good for growing in?
