I'm using small 5x5 square plastic pots to veg my 6 BB clones in. But they are growing at a rapid rate and are now about 8 inches tall. I'm using a small ebb n flow hydro setup and i was wondering if i need to transplant? How tall should the plants get before i have to move them from these 5x5 plastic pots? I'm afraid of getting rootbound. | ||

| These are a little over two feet tall and are in the 5x5's: One plant per container. How bigs your table that holds the containers?

| Yep, I use them in my e/f tray. If your doing SoG, or small to medium sized plants, they'll be just fine. I wouldn't recommend them for bush style growing, though. I've had some plants grow to 32", which yielded around 2-2 1/2 oz's +/-....Top heavy, but not rootbound.  | ||

It will give you more because taller plants have more fan leaves & foilage, but were not growing for leaves (shake) but rather for bud, so excess plant height isn't generally done. As for the original ? I use (5x) 5x5 net pots in a rubber maid bubber basin and have never had a problem with 4+ ft plants. Good growing, oh and welcome to the forum  DP
