I think that one is I little bigger than 3 gallon.

If you go into the store I'm sure they have them and labeled as 3gallon

3 gallon ? i say is roughly 10 inches high and 10 inches in diameter

Square Pots are more convenient.

I find that square pots are alot better to use because you use up all the pot space compared to the round pots that you can't cover those spaces with.

called my local lowes, it's 3 1/2 gals but they're out of them, gonna have em shipped from another store

This looks like a 12" diameter pot that is 10.25 deep. simple math tells me that this is a 5 gallon pot ( 6x6x3.14159x10.25 / 231)

either way, its is a good deal.

square pots would probably be great but stuff you can get in my area is very limited, was luck to find round ones

anything but bag pots, square all the way. 10x10 sounds right. Pe@ce.

I buy lots from local nurseries pretty cheap. Like 50 cents for 3 or 5gal

Is there a reason you say no to grow bags? I just bought some, thought they'd do just fine.

I use 2-3gal bags and I like them more than pots.

I use the 3 gallon bags from my grow shop, they work great.
With the bags, I can move things around better. When I used square pots there was a few times the damned corners of the pot kept me from putting plants exactly where I wanted them. Though the square pots do look nice and neat when they are lined up in order.

i went with 4 gallon square buckets for my clones, i think ther good for the whole way cause the little pots only lasted 7 days and the roots wer at the bottom already, next time ima just start them in the big ones

bags ??? really wth?? how do bags drain well and in what??
