Will These Work With Autos?

[oLd1]

My Son said next time I might try Fiber Pots with my Autos.

I have a bunch of 5 gallon ones will they work?

Bit big for an auto, or roll/cut the tops down to a two or three gallon pot if auto's are your direction.

Right now growing in 3 gallon buckets and doing fine.

My Son is thinking plants will get bigger and produce more but I told him they will only produce so much.

I told him just go with Photo and two months later have twice as many much.

I used to only grow autos - now mostly photos the quality is just superior and fill in will autos nuttin in fabric anymore! Just my preference and only 2 gallon pots - harvest aprox 4/6 zips off each one -

long winded answer to your right switch!

Hey, can I ask you why you stopped using the fabric pots? Wouldn't you know it, I just bought a 10 pack of 3 gal....It seemed like all the rage so I thought I'd try...I've used nothing but plastic for ever....

I got the Fabric Pots but never used them.

I could order smaller Fabric Pots before I need them. They are not that much.

They will have better root zones in the fabric pots. That is the main advantage.

fabric pots are definitely a good choice. i use 5 gallon for my autos, much bigger plants.

the top pic is a 5 gallon, the other pic is a 3 gallon

the difference is significant. the top one will yield about 6 or 7 oz, the other about 2 oz, maybe 3 but id bet 2

They seem to be loaded.

I got to thinking I can get more Autos in my Tent than Photos and be done sooner. So might try more with my Autos.
