10g pots a good idea?
Lucky2Timesstarted grow question 3 years ago
I am using 10 gallon pots on this grow with a mix of soils including some from the chicken coop (aged). As a new grower I see a lot of advice to go smaller. To me larger systems are more stable, am I off?

As long as you veg the plant long enough to fill the pot out with its root then your all good 💪 pot size is preference. I use 3 gallon on auto flowers cause of the shorter veg times. Then 5 gallon pots with plants veg for roughly 2 months or 7 gallon for 3 months. Good Luck Bro 💪

You done the right thing. The bigger the pot the bigger the plant. With photos so long as you veg them long enough in big pots you will get nice big plants. With autoflowers that size is probably to big and a waste of soil.

Mold on soilI used BioBizz LightMix with Monsterbud Mix from Amnesia and some mycorrhiza in the hole of the seed. 3 seeds after 3 days still not germinated in soil. Had foil on top of the pots for humidity. Probably watered a bit too much. What should I do and will my seeds still germinate?

Soil Amount Heavily DecreasedHello everyone, I'm almost at the end of my first grow and I've noticed that the amount of soil in my pots compacted pretty heavily. How do I avoid this problem in my next grow? (Pictures show the beginning and the current state of the soil; ~ -7cm soil height)

PH-Problems in SoilBefore repotting, the pH value in the soil has always fallen to below 5.5. The plants always have an iron deficiency. I then repotted the plants and that worked well for 14 days. Now they are showing PH deficits again. The soil has PH 5,4 -4,8. What could be the reason?

Planting directly into soil with full of other roots? (Outdoor Guerilla Autoflower)The site is full of brambles with dense rootzones. I have dug a hole but its full of roots. Is it OK if I cut down every single root from my hole? Could my plant catch bacteria and etc from the brambles roots? Won't the brambles roots suck away all my nutrient from my plant?
