Transplant into final pot done.
I did an OK job on this transplant. We will see in the next 24-48 hours whether or not it was successful. Thank you.

@Bilber @GoldenDragondnw.She looks great....I forgot you were trying the aeropots.....self-pruning so your plant doesn't get root bound.....watering/feeding, if done properly, is supposed to encourage root growth....kinda like the fabric pots....I think I'd try these....these over fabric for sure....
She looks at home....
Looking good, what size pot did you put her in?Transplant into final pot done.I did an OK job on this transplant. We will see in the next 24-48 hours whether or not it was successful. Thank you.
I've never used either......I was looking at the aeropots a while back, but...just didn't jump....I would use the aeropots over fabric all day though....@Bilber @GoldenDragondnw.
What do you like better about the aero pot over the fabric pot? Just curious I have never used aero pots
The airflow. This is my 1st foray into the aeropots. So it's a learn as I grow. Hoping they are better than the fabric. Also, cleaner so far.@Bilber @GoldenDragondnw.

It's 5 gallon pot. I didn't fill it all the way up cuz that was the last of the happy frog soil I had. Changing that this coming season too.Looking good, what size pot did you put her in?
I like it. It's clean dude. Those fabric pots be getting dirty.Just by pure design I would say I like fabric over aero pots... Im a fan of multiple uppottings even with fabric pots... I have never been root locked in fabric....
I feel that maybe combining fabric pots for the up-potting... and finishing out in an aeropot might be better...
I feel like a 5 gallon pot is too big for small plants... just my opinion of corse!!!
But again...I never used aeropots just going off seen at sight
So when the roots hit the edge of the fabric pots they get air pruned and multiply just like a topping a node. I don't think it's possible to get root bound in fabric because the roots don't swirl around like regular pots where there is no air pruning going on. I don't see how it could be more air flow than fabric pots with fans going?I've never used either......I was looking at the aeropots a while back, but...just didn't jump....I would use the aeropots over fabric all day though....
I just up pot from a solo cup to a 7 gallon fabric pot and never have a mess personally with how i do it. But different strokes for different folks though. Interested to see how the aero pot works out.I like it. It's clean dude. Those fabric pots be getting dirty.I'm also a fan of putting small things in big pots. I'll start a seed off in one. It's just basically watering a small thing in a big pot. Once the watering is down. Too easy. No transplanting necessary. I think it's less shock for plants that way.

Well I did put the bacio gelato baby in it. So we hoping so! I'm prob gonna get a germ kit from ac infinity later for my breeding run. I don't want my crappy germ methods being the reason why my seeds don't pop.I just up pot from a solo cup to a 7 gallon fabric pot and never have a mess personally with how i do it.

Interesting, can't wait to see the babies you breed!!!! I love to watch the process and see what comes out its fascinating to me✌Well I did put the bacio gelato baby in it. So we hoping so!

but we all will get to see how the aeropots do. So far I'm loving them over the fabric.

That makes sense about the salts and algae, I use living soil so it's never even crossed my mind. Always good to get other growers perspectives.canna....I don't think I have an actual excuse or opinion to be honest.....but given what I've read up on, fabric can grow algae and collects and retains salts....again, I'm not biased on which system or way or style to use.....I usually most often rely on what is laying around.....we happen to drink coffee, so I figured we could use um someway....I've put them to use....she loves plantingin the spring....she gets plants, I get containers.....
