I'm with u on starting in small pots much easier to manage man let em get stacked then transplant and they take off

Always good to make 4 little cuts at the bottom of the root just to encourage rapid new growth into the new pot and use it instead of staying a little root ball also give a week of root stim when transplant or super thrive just gives em the extra boost they need :)

I didn't make myself clear. I start mine in 1 litre pots but I want it in the main pot for much longer than a few days before fliP. Maybe 3 weeks so it's packed out with roots and the pot dries out a lot quicker so I can force more nute solution through.and that enables me to replenish the oxygen and balance the ph levels 4 times a day as opposed to once every 2 days.

U would do well with airpots and a dripper set up

Although I read that a lot of pro growers nowadays plant the cut straight into the final pot. I might give it a go and see what the crack is

I've just thought of a little idea....so I can drip feed daily but without all the pumps n shit just use some 2 litre bottles with a pin prick in the bottom hopefully they should empty out over 24 hr then fill and repeat...I might give it a whirl yano

I'm still new to coco and I grow trees so my results are different to u guys, not better or worse I'm just aiming to get the most out of each individual plant. Best I've got is 22 out of an 8 litre sack and I know I could improve that.

The difference in finish is like the difference in finish between coco and soil I like soil for starting but coco gives a far better finish

I've used airpots man not with a dripper system but they're noting special there's a guy on ig who was doing a side by side and he's just sacked em and gone back to square pots

I've looked at em for years and never took the plunge loadsa guys I know was using them and loved em a couple of others tried em once and reported them in normals after a week because they didn't fully understand who they worked I've tried em my self now and the difference is impressive think of no restrictions on root development but still small enough to drink what ever u can give them
