Hay everyone
Im a money-concious buyer but also looking for the best plant pot i can get.
Im currently using round 8 liter (1.76 Imperial Gallon / 2.1 US Liquid Gallon) and growing
3x Blumatic Auto (Height Indoor 60 - 75 cm / Height Outdoor 70 - 100 cm - Current = 33/29/28 cm)
Harvest month 8-9 weeks after sprouting - 3-4 weeks left and started floweirng 2 days ago.
1x Royal Cheese Auto (Height Indoor 40 - 70 cm / Height Outdoor 60 - 110 cm - Current = 41 cm)
Harvest month 9-10 weeks after planting - 4-5 weeks left and started floweirng 2 days ago.
3x Dance World (Height Indoor 60 - 100 cm / Height Outdoor 80 - 120 cm - Current = 30/25/23 cm)
Harvest is stated as early October - 3 months left and still vegging.
on a basic window ledge situation that gets around 9hrs of direct sunlight (clouds permitting) a day.
They were planted (after germination on tissure paper) and are all 5 and a half weeks old now
Im looking for help on what plant pots to go for next as im trying to save as much space and money as possible but am also worried about becomming root bound.
As i understand it the Smart Bags (those soft ones) prevent the plants becomming root bound so i would assume they would not need as much space but a website i was looking at says that i would need to buy one twice the size of the regular pot i would buy :-s. This true?
A cheap method i thought of was to buy a large 13 liter plastic bucket as they are super cheap and drill holes in the bottom. Would adding a fabric around the interior help slow down them becomming root bound?
Lastly, any ideas of how long i should wait to repot them? Due to the size checking the roots would be awkward but not impossible i guess.
Thx for all ya help guys! :-D
p.s. any other advice on my situation would be very appreciated too
