five or seven gallon pots

There are many who say the bigger the pot, the bigger the plant. You have a fairly long veg time so your plants should take better advantage of the larger pots.

thanks for the input. yeah i veg so long cuz i have w lights so while there blooming im vegging in another room. im gonna do a side by side comparison. not very much info on this besides opinions
 
Obviously you can grow a bigger plant in a 7 gallon than a 5 gallon. It is not an issue in most indoor rooms because of height issues so 3 or 5 is plenty big enough. I like using 5s but not filling them all the way, the width is the factor. So if you try 7s because your grow room ceiling is 10' high (lucky you) make sure you get the squat, short, and fat buckets and not the tall skinny buckets. Weed roots like to go horizontal (the feeders) more than vertical.

thanks for the advice. i am really interested in how big a difffverence its gonna make. there already huge in the fives. i do four per light so im gonna do two in fives and two in sevens..... yeah height isntt a issue but with six hundred hps i fee
 
If your vegging for 55 days I HIGHLY recommend going with the 7 gallon pot! I would actually consider that on the small side for a veg as long as your doing.
 
All really kinda goes on what size you arewanting the finished plant,if ya growing over 2/3 ft in height then i would go with the biggest pots ya can bigger root mass = bigger over all yeild
