Do I need to poke holes in this type of pot for seedlings?
alvitofrstarted grow question 5y ago
Hi, I was wondering if I could set my seed inside this pot without making holes in its bottom and sides since it was sold like this.
It is made of a cardboard-like paste and I don't know if it could help with drainage after watering my seedling during the first weeks.

I would. Even though the pot is permeable seedlings often suffer from over watering. So Iโd poke 6-8 holes in the bottom with a screwdriver or something like that. And unless itโs going in the soil outside where worms and such would eat it I wouldnโt plant seedling in the pot as it will not decompose fast if there isnโt anything to eat it. Happy Growing and good luck!๐

Water temperature control in DWC. CuriosityIn DWC growing, chillers are really expensive and frozen water bottles you need to replenish kind of frequently. Does anyone currently use any insulation for their 5 gallon buckets? Do you have a rough estimate of how many degrees it cooled your bucket? Doing a temp study. ThanksWeek 3
