My bad. Got you and Meta confused....Though it's funny to see that you did not see the video posted earlier but jumped on the badwagon. LOL
He jumped on the bandwagon because you're wrong


Excuse me...we, and the majority of outdoor grower BELIEVE you are wrong, but if you like what you're doing, no reason to change anything! I'm all about good vibes, bro, and you come off a little harsh.

there is no right or wrong way when choosing pot size but u need to realize it does make a difference
I already stated it makes a difference....It ONLY makes a difference when you vegg for long periods only, but as I have been saying OVEr and OVER ....A regular grow cycle of 6-7 months only needs a 5 gallon container.

I don't understand the thinking of some people here. 5 Gallons is more than enough for monster plants. Mary Jane life span is only 6-7 months or so. Do you really think you need more than 5 gallons? Better yet, everyone should start checking their root ball at the end of their grows. I am sure they will see that anything over 5 gallons is a overkill. As I stated in the other thread....Nurseries grow TREES in 5 gallon pots. You can use these grow bags that are only 25 cents each..... http://www.bghydro.com/BGH/itemdesc.asp?ic=COGB5 or you can use buckets that are a couple of dollars at Wal Mart. Here is a pic that shows the type of monsters you can get from 5 Gallon containers.....
hahahha anything over 5 gallons is overkill....that's absoluetly ridiculous!! Yes, those are beautiful plants in 5 gallon buckets, and yes, a 5 gallon bucket can grow very nice big plants, but to say anything bigger is overkill is crazy. I get 5 lbs per plant outdoors, and I'm not the best or am I getting the biggest outdoor yields inCali, and there is NO WAY your growing a 5 pounder ina 5 gallon bucket.....nonsense. Not to mention that a good size Ganga plant will be root bound in that 5 gallon bucket before you know it, and you'll be watering it twice a day. If you can't dig a hole, the size container you want depends on how big you really want em' to get. If you want a lb a plant, 5 gallons will work if you can water twice a day, if not, get somethin bigger.

There, now you're caught up

You call me dumb but jumped into a conversation without reading the entire thread. Anyone that values your post/comments need their head checked.

Talk about gay. Nice work editing my post to suit your idiotic thoughts. Thankfully anyone that actually has a brain will read the thread without the bullshit.

Are you fucking slow...MARIJUANA IS A ANUAL PLANT....There is no fucking way a plant started in April will be done in January OUTSIDE. Fall brings in less than 12 hours of sunlight which makes plants flower. If you don't know that then you are more fucking STUPID than I thought. Stop making yourself look like an ass dude.

Did you look at my grow from last year? you can plainly see that on May 25th, my plants were put in, and they only had a 2 week veg prior to being put in, and if you don't think those monsters had 3-5 lbs on each, you just don't know. I don't come on here to argue, but I know my sh.it and I have pics to prove it, and my plants are waaaaay bigger than you r little 5 gallon bucket plants, so believe what you want and say what you want, plenty of people know your full of it and don't know you anything.
Do you have pics of your 5 pound plants and the root ball? I'd love to see them. I never said I got 5 pound plants in 5 gallon buckets. Dude, it's non sense to say that someone will have to water twice a day just because a plant is in a 5 gallon bucket. I have plants in 5 gallon grow bags and don't have to do that. Here is a pic of one of my ladies that is 3 feet tall in a 5 gallon grow bag....



She is doing well and has PLENTY of room to stretch her roots. I water her once every 2-3 days. I have over 300 plants spread out between grow bags and in the ground. At the end of my grow I will post pics of their root ball for comparison so we can kill the hype around here. Here is a pic of one of mine in the ground too...

Guess I've been transplanting from 5gal buckets to ground for the last few years for nothing. lol But seriously, I thought EVERYONE knew that bigger pot means bigger plant? Guess not. And whats up with this vegging inside for a year shit? lol. I tell you what Mr. 5 gallon. Find a spot that gets all day sun. Dig a HUGE hole or use 25 gallon container, fill it with good soil. Do another one a few feet away in a 5 gallon bucket. And then you can be your own judge. I did it, and it's no comparison. Try it next year. Start em early March if possible. Bet you change your mind.

Umm.. My first grow I had rootbound plants in 5 gallon pots and they were only out 7/31-10/20...... You CAN grow in a 5 gallon pot but you aren't going to get the "monsters" that you are looking for.
