how big of crab can get into pot?

pretty big. I actually sent mine back because the mesh was too big for blue crab. Its made for Pacific crabs and I was going after blue crab.

You can get an 8 in plus crab n about 20 of them in the pot, if you know where to go :)

I think you could easily get 6 in there. You'll want some sort of barrier though, between the lobsters and the bottom of the pot so they don't scorch. Add two bottles of your favorite stout or IPA for some craft beer infusion as well.

Maybe I didn't understand the question .....the false bottom is able to withstand any amount of grain that you can fit i n the pot.....however there is about 2.75. Gallons of liquid that will fit beneeth the false bottom...I couldn't imagine any type of beer or grain weight that could come anywhere close to damaging the false bottom on this particular size of pot....unless you are brewing with lead

I would have to say no. Maybe in 4's. If you want to start individuals go with a bigger peat pot. Maybe 4"

Three years in and we're finally getting bananas. They just started. We have it in a huge greywater pot though and its about 4' tall.

Assuming they're 8-10" across prob could get 12 if your planning on adding potatoes and corn. I did 5lbs of 15-20 ct shrimp plus 3lbs small red potatoes and 15 ears of corn cut in half and 10 big sausages That fit with room for more. I was only 1/2 way full! But dungenous crabs are bulky not sure what else your adding but may want to cook corn separately if your adding them

This thing is HUGE, you will have no problem fitting at least 10 lobsters or more in. I'm about 150lbs and I'm pretty sure I could curl up and fit inside of this pot.

I'd say that it's a bit too small for hermit crabs. Hermit crabs require two water dishes (one with salt water, one with fresh) and a food dish. This tank is a little too small to accommodate three dishes and still have sufficient space left for the crabs to roam. Hermit crabs should also have a deep substrate, which this tank will not allow for.

I've never been that lucky to ever have that many crab in one pot, but it has worked great for me pulling hoopers with maybe one or two lobsters or up to five rock crab in them. I don't know what weight it is rated for. The limiting factor I believe would be the base attachment, would need to have good solid metal to attach the base two. Mine is attached to an aluminum gunnel, with a backing plate under the gunnel, and I've got the arm resting on/over, a side rail.

Smaller, I used my to steam crabs in a 30 qt pot. I took a brick and broke it into 4 pieces, and set the basket on top of the them to keep the crabs out of the liquid. I can steam about 2 dozen crabs at a time, I can keep hot crabs on the table all day.

Go a minimum of 18". I would put the largest pot you have on the cooktop and make sure you have adequate clearance to see in & stir

I have used mine to pull lobster hoops which weigh as much as 30 lbs with no problem and since I do not know the weight of a crab pot I am not sure.

This is my first year using the pot I'm trying them with vegetables (cabbage, tomatoes), but I certainly think a dwarf fruit tree would do very well in the large pot.

No you probably wouldnt put them directly in the pot. Maybe extra large seeds could be done that way but normally you will want to start them in small bio degradable starter pots or jiffy pellets or similar.

I'd say the quality of mine was really good, maybe 2 bigger plants but not too big . I can fit about eight 6 "pots with small coleus plants because they don't bush too much but not a lot. If you have the space, I'd recommend a bit of a bigger size. After the first few weeks, you'll want a bigger one probably lol!

i have several plants with pots between 6 to 15 inches. In smaller ones, I put one in small pots, and two stakes in larger pots. I had bought it very early before the vacation, so i can test how it will work - i have over 15 large plants, some of them 25 yrs old.. (inheritance from a friend) wanted to make sure they are not taken care while i was away.... I grouped the plants, used a water container shared by 3 or 4 pots. The water container needs to positioned correctly, otherwise they just pull too much water too fast. read the instructions come with, keep experimenting.. happy flowering..
