pros = look nice out doors, fire/heat proof cons, = Porous, easy to break, heavy as fuck, hold onto salts and other leftovers, not easy for transplanting, scratch Mylar easy. difficult to clean/sanitize.

They suck the moisture out of the soil and are a very poor choice for growing cannabis.

Pros easy to get nice and weighty to stand up cons can be pricey in bigger sizes and a pain in the rear on some transplants.

Growing in an old flat with ovens
Super specific question: since our flat is old af, we use ovens for heating. They produce alot of Ash and this way of heating doesnt dry the air at all. Anyone else with these circumstances? What are your experiences?
