Haha pretty easy answer isn't it.

Those pots won't last you the full grow. The larger the root ball the more you are going to yield. If you're growing photoperiod plants start out with 1 liter pots and work your way up to 5 liter pots at a minimum. 10 liters or more will give you some serious yield. But the pots must fit in the grow space of course.

If your growing autoflowering plants with short bloom time you're best to use the largest pot first and don't transplant. The autos don't have time or energy to mess with transplantation stress.

Also if you minimize on pot size you will be required to water and feed the plants more often because there is not enough soil to provide the nutritional needs to the plant.

To give you an idea what real pot sizes are required for "natural" growing check out the organics section and see the big ass pots being used by those guys.

My favorite pot size for a medium size plant is 12L but for a large plant you may do better with 20L.

I'm using 5L pots right now and I'm not nearly happy with the volume.

You cant go wrong with a full 5gallon bucket.

i want to try and fit 6 plants in the area

I really can't tell, but the area looks about 3 to 4 feet wide and long and about 4' tall. I really can't tell.

Why grow 6? Your pots, area and light by the look of it arnt up to it...if you grow 6 and use those pots you'll probably be wasting seeds cos they will get rootbound, shed leaves and yield poorly.

3 gallon pot will do for 1 plant. you can all ways use something smaller but you can get the plant as big

There are square pots that help cut down on the wasted space or grow bags that are flexible. That might help with your space issue.

how many could i grow in a grow tent size

maybe 2 to 4

im thinking of going areoponics give that a go anyone know anything about that?

How many soil grows do you have under your belt, and how many hydroponics do you have? Do you at least $300 to spare?
