In the middle of summer im thinking to plant some photoperiods outside in pots. What size of pot should i start and what size for transplantation after? I have a place around 1 or 1.5m^2. And thinking to plant two. I dont want them to be very high cause its a guerilla grow.thinking for 1-1.5meter high. Also i was thinking the last container to be an 11l fabric pot. Its a good size or very big? What's your opinion tnx in advance.

I grow outdoors in fabric pots when it gets hot small pot could need watering twice a day,to avoid this i never use less that 30 gallon pots. It sounds like you are using a smaller area, I would try and give both of them a southern exposure for the best growth.

You can grow some big plants in small containers. But as has been mentioned you'll be watering much more frequently. You'll also want to do some topping and training to keep them from getting too tall since that's something you want to avoid.

Don't let them get 8 + feet tall like I did with this one in a 3 gallon container. Good luck.
