You can either make use of TEXT or LONGTEXT as a database column data type, if you have a need to store a large amount of data in database column. However, it is always important to add validation at the form field level to restrict the user from typing an value that is greater than the specified database column length value. In this case, a TEXT data type will hold 65535 chars where as LONGTEXT can hold up to 4 Gigabytes of data.
