Welcome!
When you say you think the pots are big enough - can I ask what you are growing and the size of the pot?
Carrots for example can, depending on variety, grow roots a foot long and therefore need a pot at least 15" deep. Lettuce on the other hand only needs 6" deep pots but each plant needs a good 6" to 8" of space between it and the next if you want it to grow big enough to heart.
