I start my rooted cuts off in 4 nursery containers for a couple weeks then to 2 gal (1.6 actual) to veg veg 2-3 more weeks then flower in actual 3 gal containers.You want them under flo's for a few days when transplanted to soil before going to HID's.I let the rootball fill each container before transplanting up

Yea plenty of people just transplant once I start in small containers so I can start 20 plants or so at once under a single fixture

Just because i work in a growshop doesnt mean i claim to be the final word in growing technique
I wasnt making fun of you man. Thought it was actually cool. Would just think the other employees would of been able to help ya out.

i thought you might have had something to do with a certain growshop with a name like that.:joint:
i start my clones in 10 cm square pots and then transplant into 5 gallon(20 ltr)pots a week or so before flowering,but i can only fit 3 in my wardrobe with pots that size.

oh,and how do you like the canna bio range?im using the earthjuice range from you guys and so far its great but im always keen to try new things.

My opinion is that you could spend 100L of soil with 600W without a lot of wasting.
100/12= 8.3L.

I started out using Nitrosol for vegging and then started using Bloom,meta k and catalyst in flowering with a little nitrosol mixed in as the bloom has no N.Im just using the bloom now and need to get some more catalyst as i ran out.Its great stuff,my buds are pumping.
Iv never had a problem transplanting from small pots into my 20 ltrs,always get good results.
the square pots are just leftovers from the local garden store when i planted my vege garden.I have shitloads of them.
so,when are we gunna see so pics of your garden.:smile:

I'd go with 3 gal pots and bloom fairly early but I run towards perpetual setups. Otherwise I'd probably lean towards a 5 gal. Are you using any root inoculants?
