Im doing 4 plants in my 5x5 tent; looking to put them in nice big pots of organic soil. Seems like the biggest pots anyone sells are 10 gallon. The best option i have come up with so far is getting a couple 30 gallon food grade plastic barrels and cutting them in half to make 4 pots. What do you guys think about that idea?
The inspiration for this idea comes from the fact that my girls started getting deficient in 5 gallon pots at the start of flower and each one is only taking up a little less than 1/6 of the tent. So next round when i veg them enough for each one to fill 1/4 of the tent, even a 10 gallon isn't going to get the job done.
The alternative option is 20 gallon fabric pots which would work, the only issue i have with those is that they add a lot of humidity and dehumidifiers cost a good bit to run.
Looking for any input from indoor growers who use really big pots.
