Let's imagine this grid is infinite. After some time (t) it will fill all the
plane. It's area increases k times (k>1000 is constant).

Let's make finite but very big grid. After some time its center area will
increase k times and its border can't affect dots which are more than t meters
from border. If initial area of blot=a, then 

a'/a ~ k*((r-t)^2)/(r^2))
  
if k=1000*(x^2),x>1 then (r-t)/r must be greater than 1/x, r>xt/(x-1). So, we can
choose any radius more than xt/(x-1)
