Who sells square pots bigger than 4 gallons?

I am currently using 4 gallon square pots. The yield off of my last crop (of three plants) was over 6 ounces for the one plant. The other two I didn't keep as close track of but it was at least 3 ounces maybe 4 each. But I keep reading about how much better your yield will be the bigger the roots can get. So I want to use pots bigger than 4 gallons. Like 5-7 gallons or something. Does anyone know who sells any? I've looked all over and can't find a place that has them. The biggest square ones I can find are the ones I already have.

Thanks.

I was at Home Depot the other day and they had some enormous pots. Like 20 gallon outside pots, I thought about it for a second, but they would be hard to use indoors, hell it would take an entire 600w light for that one pot!

HOME DEPOT is the place!

I know they have large ceramic pots that are about 15 gallons... I bought a square pot for my money tree and I belive it was 6 gallons. not positive though I can tell you it used half a big bag of fox farm happy frog soil. I suggest checking out several HOME DEPOTS as there are several in my area and they don't always carry the exact same plant stuff.

they have those 5 gallon square pots,

I think they are called the monster, big one or something along those lines.

As far as larger, not sure BUT yes grow bags CHEAP and will allow you to test your theory for pennies on the dollar compared to actual grow containers.

totes ... 10 gallon totes are the shit. they have plenty room for lateral growing roots and a good depth.. costco usually has good deals on them.

Thanks for all of the replies.

Hey ureapwhatusow, it's funny you posted that link, because those are exactly what I'm using now. I got mine at Growco though. I only paid like $4 for them when I got them. They raised the price now. But anyway... Here's the link to them on Growco's site: Square Plastic Pot - 4 gallon Giant .

I don't know if I want to go quite 10 gallons. At the moment I really can't. I'm growing in a Secret Jardin DR120 tent. I have 7 plants in here right now and I'm afraid it's too many. I don't know how many of those 10 gallon totes I could fit in this thing but not enough.

I'm thinking about ditching this tent though. I have a 9'x8'x9 foot high room I am thinking about making my new grow room. If I end up doing that I thought about using totes like you guys suggested.

Last time I grew some G13 Labs Power Skunk that got about 7 feet tall in this tent. I didn't grow it this time because the height is too much for this tent. I had to bend it over and shit. But several people absolutely loved that shit. If I convert that space into my new grow room I'd be able to easily grow that again. If you can't tell I'm trying to talk myself into doing it... :laughing: If I do it I'll have to heat it in the winter. Hmmm, I need to get busy.

What is the deal with those grow bags? Can they be moved around? Or do you have to be really careful with them? I thought about buying some but changed my mind because of that. I was worried that if you moved them around too much that it would stunt the plants or shock them etc...
 
I have a 5 gallon square rose bucket that I got from the hydro shop. You can also get smartpots all the way up to 100 gallons.

They air prune the roots so no rootbinding. I have a roughly 2.5 foot plant in veg in a 2 gallon pot and it's still growing without any signs of slowing down.

I have a girl that I vegged for almost 10 weeks in a pot like this http://www.horticulturesource.com/p...4071/?osCsid=6a260ca3e56edf3fd5e0b005ff1560e8
