Very nice flood and drain pot in a bigger size.
The pots look like they're meant to force the roots down, almost directional towards the feed, as opposed roots coming out the side of the pot. In soil or coco I like the roots to come out the side, in DWC and flood and drain I like the roots to come out the bottom. Do they come in bigger sizes, like a 3ltr? I think they could catch on.
Yeah thats supposed to be the deal i guess. I’m using it for the clones so they’ll get dry and i dont think i’ll see the full benefits of the design probably but in an ebb and flow like setup they should work as you said.
The biggest i think is 5.9 inches wide and about the same height and it gets narrower in the bottom like this one to about 4 inches. I think it is just around 2.5-3 litres.
2.5 is close enough for flood and drain. Do you have pix of the roots coming out the bottom of the pot?
Not yet. They just got transplanted. Maybe in a week or two. I’ll post some pics when that happens.
Sound, just in the process of settting up a flood and drain grow for my next run, need some thing that can look after it's self while I grab some wealth.
pop em ....see what happens, wont know till u try bro... good vibes sent ~Man more i think about it, i get more and more excited about this pollen chucking experience. So i just dropped 3 blue kush from dinafem and 3 peyote cookies from barneys farm into water. Gonna flower them real quick in little plastic pots and see if there are any keepers in there too.
If i’m gonna breed something of my own its better to take advantage of all that i have.
I also have 5 critical plus seeds but i’m not very sure about them, they were freebies and from experience Dinafem shit have been pretty solid thus far so i don’t know, maybe i’ll pop them too.

It seems like they’ll grow out of the pot like this. Now they’ll probably die back as i leave them to dry but seems like if you flood and keep them moist them may grow out. I’ll post some updates as this moves along.

They all got transplanted into these pots and they seem happy.

I also moved them into the tent again. Floros are nice too but planted 3 blue kush and 3 peyote cookies after 24hrs of soak and 24 in paper towel and ime floros cause stretch when kept too high.
6 out of 6 cracked. Waiting for them to brake soil. I had 26/26 germ rate so far. Thats very cool imo. These are all from Dinafem. Some strains are from other breeders but still speaks well for the organization in general.
Also did my test test on PAK #1. One of the lower buds after 4 days hang dry. Very smooth and smells incredible. Still tastes a bit green but without any cure thats normal. The thing that suprised me is actually how amazing the smell was. They describe it as a pineapple smell on their site and it really is. Also very very smooth vapor. I have to do another test before i determine how the high is. I was already smoking Dinachem :)

So far i have this pic dude.
Pots are working well, they have serious potential. For cuttings in a flood n drain until they shoot roots, they're ideal, and not a lot of base of pot to hold water on the ebb. :cool:
I already ordered some 5.9”s for the pollen chucking adventure. :)
I'm teetering on the edge dude. lol
It’ll take a bit longer to arrive, new year and all but i’ll keep it posted. Maybe do a review if it peaks interest.
