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'm with u on starting in small pots much easier to manage man let em get stacked then transplant and they take off
Ahhh I gotcha now :)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 upI 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.

Obviously I've got a dropper set up, I'm not hand feeding them 4 times a day! Air pots I might try, I'm just worried about sediment falling out and getting into main tank.U would do well with airpots and a dripper set up
Use empty nute bottle bro the light can't get through I know a few outdoor guys that do it all the time :)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
Yano what bro just for u I'm setting up a baby grow in a xxl tent with 2 of them £50 dripper things in 1 I will use normal standard pots that come with it and in the other I will use airpots and I will show u the difference in finish u can thank me at the end :smoking:Dripper system yes airpots no
I'd like to see that, I'm curious about airpotsYano what bro just for u I'm setting up a baby grow in a xxl tent with 2 of them £50 dripper things in 1 I will use normal standard pots that come with it and in the other I will use airpots and I will show u the difference in finish u can thank me at the end :smoking:
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 finishYano what bro just for u I'm setting up a baby grow in a xxl tent with 2 of them £50 dripper things in 1 I will use normal standard pots that come with it and in the other I will use airpots and I will show u the difference in finish u can thank me at the end :smoking:
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 themI'd like to see that, I'm curious about airpots
