streps like to be root bound so I leave them in a 3" squatty pot unless there are several crowns. But I don't get a lot of crowns until the plants are older. I do move up to a 4" av pot but never a standard 4" pot. They are too deep.

I like to move from a solo 3oz cup to either a 21/2" square or the short 3" pot. Let me find a picture of them. I just ordered two hundred 3" squatty pots from Dave'sviolets for a good price.

Front green ones are 21/2" square and a 3" squatty pot
Behind the 3" squatty pot is a 3" standard and a 31/2 " standard
Behind the 21/2" square pot is a 4" violet pot which is short also........look that is shorter than the 3" standard and the 31/2" standard..........

Do I have you totally confused????????????

I will go get a strep in a 3" squatty pot to show you
