Growlab X Fastbuds Auto Grow

@growlab, They go right through, its an air pruning pot. The walls are nothing more than a few fibers and when I see white roots poking through the bottom its time to move into a larger size. Just dont confuse with peat which also works BTW.

@rhodes68, nice I’ll check them out we have something similar in the tent actually just never used them. Have you noticed any hinderance in growth when the roots are trying to bust through the pot or does the pot break up pretty easily?

@growlab, I buy these locally but here is the small pot from amazon : https://www.amazon.com/Planters-Pride-RZR02252-Coconut-12-Pack/dp/B000RNB1XK/ref=sr_1_30?crid=2D7TMPWJNT0J9&keywords=fiber+grow+pots&qid=1555886486&s=gateway&sprefix=fiber+grow+%2Caps%2C213&sr=8-30 Get a good brand, cheap may cost ya, its not expensive. Soak the pots in water for a few hours before use. With seedlings I more water the pot than soil if you will. From there I go to 5" or 6" fiber before ending up in the large smart pots. Going to use these on my AFT outdoor grow also and that is a three transplant process. Glad to let you know anything I can, I am still learning. I am considering just using a 3.5" square fiber pot for germ to final pot, as that is a pretty good compromise size and eliminates one step.

@G4NJAG4NG, we always blend up new stuff and use the old in our garden and what not. If you amended the soil with more fertilizers it could probably be reused but I’m no expert on this area at all. Anyone have any insight?
