Are 8 3 gallon pots sufficient for a 4X8?

Aww sick that looks dope man. Cheers for the insight. I will be using 8 3 gallon pots cheers.

I didn't expect them to get that big. But Damn if the pot size isn't holding them back. You read about folks using 5 gallon pots. I used a couple years back and the plants I grew in those were smaller then these. 2 gallons of pro-mix in fabric pots. You'd think there wouldn't be enough space for the roots ~and~ dirt.

These plants are going to be prime smoke. Lots of weight. You can shake a limb and feel the bud density. 3 gallons on the next grow. 3 gallons are the dial in.

I veg for 10 weeks, a week or so to root clone, 2-3 weeks in 1 gal, 4-5 weeks in 3 gal, transfer to 5 gallon buckets around beginning of week 9. There as big as SouthCrosses, but i train for multiple tops and even canopy. When there done I can pull all my dirt as one giant ball, save for the bottom couple inches. I still need to water every other day usually, unless I really soak them, then I get 2-3 days.

VEG time,veg lighting and plant size going into flower will dictate final pot size. I'd say if you keep veg time around 6 weeks, 3 gal would be good
