Hey guys , quick question here is 3 15 gallons pots too much for a 5x5 and 1 hlg 650r light and if so what would you guys recommend . 1 or 2 for the 15 gallon pots in the 5x5. The reason Im asking is searching around different subreddits they say for the build a soil 3.0 mix they would really recommend a 15 gallon pot but others are saying 10 gallon pot will work just as fine with a 3.0 build a soil mix , I just will need to top-dress. All answers are greatly appreciated thank you

Especially in fabric pots because they will prune themselves, there really isnt much need for huge pots like that.
I grow 6 plants in a 5 x 5 in just 3.5 gallon cloth pots, and with just a 42 day veg, and smart up potting that one tents pulls 34 - 38 zips every time. And I just run 2 x 320(s) @ 180 watts each during veg, and @ 220 watts each during flower! Yeah, 15 gallon pots are way to big for a 5 x 5
