Planter Gardening...

Ok so my plants became very VERY potbound and it's about two weeks into flowering. I know it's not the best time to transplant but I used super-thrive to lessen the shock. Anyway, I couldn't find 4 pots that would fit in my space and give them anymore room so I decided to use a LARGE tupperware tub, I drilled drainage holes in the bottom and laid down some stone to help drainage. Anyway, I have never had more then one plant in a container before, is there anything specific to this type of container gardening I should know?

I have grown 5 plants in a single container before. The biggest problem I ran into was that the root masses will grow together and it will be almost impossible to separate them in the future. Also, you will need to be more careful about overwatering. This is not the most healthy environment for your roots, so you need to take extra care.

You are probably going to hurt you yield due to you planting more than one plant per pot. The plants are going to fight over nutes. Take good care of it, and next time keep it one per pot...peace out man

well live and learn, fuck it, next grow I'm doing just two hydro bucket systems and SGROG. My cabinet is an odd size so I'm limmited in my options, but that should work and be inexpensive enough with good results.
