you know what i did in english class? I came to class stoned out of my mind every day, i chugged vodka in the back of class, i put dead fish in the ceiling tiles. i put a gallon of old milk and orange juice in the file cabinet before winter vacation. i brought snakes in a tied up sweater and let them loose during class. i didnt go to school to learn, i went because i had to. i didnt care, and i didn't fucking listen to that stupid bitch. and i still don't fucking care. i tore the pages out of her books and burned them, and threw away all the books in the class, two books per day.

I think that, generally, it is better, because it can become more difficult to water and administer nutrients correctly if the pot size is way bigger than where the roots are. Also, I think it helps to develop a better root system to do this, because it helps to restrict the type of roots that will keep growing out further and further, making the plant concentrate more on filling out the space it has, which means more root surface, which means more yield.

Agreed. Additionally, larger containers retain moisture longer, which is a problem because cannabis roots like air, if the medium doesn't dry fast enough you risk root rot.
