Picture of whole plant may help
They look fine. What size of pots are you using?This is the Sluricane
I'm not 100% sure, probably around 12-15lt. I dont grow my plants big though.They look fine. What size of pots are you using?
I'm not 100% sure, I think around 12-15lt. But I dont grow big, veg for around 8 weeks.They look fine. What size of pots are you using?
Nice!!I'm not 100% sure, probably around 12-15lt. I dont grow my plants big though.

I like to grow in bigger pots for a couple of reasons it gets very hot here in the summer And I found smaller pots heat up to much in the sun roots like to be cool like being in the ground. Take a look at my pics on my profile and you will see how I wrap my pots with heavy white plastic which keeps the pots cooler and the roots develop way better black or dark coloured pots are heat absorbers not the best. Just a tip I learned years ago and if you set your pots on a couple of 2x4’s so air can get below them that also helps a lot take care!I'm not 100% sure, probably around 12-15lt.

Hey man, that's why I like to go for the grey pots instead of the black ones, will definitely try the piece if wood under the pot, makes sense to keep them off the hot floor.

ty! I’ve been experimenting with pot sizes and different strains for about 4 years now. I find 35 - 45 work well for me.Damn, you grow your plants HUGE
mine is just for personal smoke so I like it keep them small to get a better quality bud. But wow it's nice to see a bush that size
hey there no I haven’t tried them. One thing I’ve noticed in the bigger bags they seem a bit sloppy and lack support not that I move my plants around once I do my final transplant. I also wonder what would happen when I start bending and staking them would they just loosen up and perhaps expose the roots ? I guess I could then top off the. Remainder with more soil? Or drill lotsa holes in the sides of my barrels and achieve the same results dunno? @ Dirtbag? @ 1diesel1?Ever try fabric pots? Their good for root aeration

Hey there thanks for the reply just wondering if you can reuse the bags if you leave it sit over the winter can you pull the rootball out without tearing the bag apart? My big pots will outlast me lol!!If you fill a fabric pot to capacity, you don't have problems like soil loosening up. By the time you need stakes, the plant will have rooted the pot and will hold the soil in place.
You need to have them in some sort of pan or tray or whatever when you water, because to thoroughly wet the soil, they might have to sit in some water to absorb it all (and they do tend to absorb it all) and moisten the entire amount of soil. When watering from the top when the soil is dry, it will run down the side of the soil mass and pop out various places through the fabric. This does NOT mean you have thoroughly watered it. The water just found an easy route.
I've used both fabric pots and hard-sided. I can't say I've seen any noticeable increase in yield from fabric, except that they tend to hold more soil than advertised. I have some 5 gallon pots that really hold 7, for example. More soil = potential for higher yield.
