Hello i have recently bought airpots to compare between my normal pots and this special pots. The seller garaunted bigger yields i was sceptic. I can see zero difference between my 2 normal pots and my 2 airpots instead they are just very anoying spilling soil and water. Does anyone have any experience using theese and whats your opinion / best of best Flodas

Equipments don't make a grower achieve donkey colas. Its help, but experience makes him a master...unless you are a masterbater.:hump:

Did u buy the air pots from day one or did u transplant into them once they had already wrapped around your original pot . Were they vegged for very long in the air pots ? Im trying the felt geo pot but I only transplanted into it before flower so not much time to focus on root growth . Also myroots were wrapping the old pot wich I think prevented the typical root structure you would get from an airpruning pot . I must say though even late in the game the fabric pot plant it doing the best . I think I should have cut a half inch off my root ball when I transplanted . This time im doing my transplants a little early so they dont hit the edges of my starter pots

My last grow had 2 plastic 5 gals and 2 fabric 5 gals and I'm sold. The smart pots had nicer looking and a little better yielding plants in them.

I thought airpots were more hassle then they were worth for a soil mix. But, interesting thought on if putting plants in them after being in a normal pot as that is what I did...

In a few month I will be able to show a difference. I have 5 plants outdoors 3 are in norm 15gal pots and 2 are in geo pots (fabric pots) I started all in solo cup put into 1 gal plastic pots and then transplanted into 15 gal pots not 1 was root bound. So when they finish ill take pics and see the difference. Only big diff I see so far is watering I have to give water every other day in fabric pots amd 4 days in plastic so

LOVE Airpots! I bought 1 about 6 months ago. I was growing SOG, 10 clones in 1 gallon pots under a 400hps. 9 regular pots, one of the spiked airpots. All clones from the same mother. Of the 9, i harvested about 35 grams per plant. The clone in the airpot was about 50 grams. She ended up being about 6 inches taller then her sisters, began flowering a few days quicker and finshed about 5 days sooner then the rest.



* the clones, were rooted in a dwc cloner, placed in party cups and vegged for 2 weeks, then transplanted to their 1 gallon pots, topped, and flipped 12/12 about 5 days later

Pet why do you keep posting those sad plants as good examples of anything... just look at those roots :lol: Perhaps instead of directing people to your own thread you should read threads posted by others.

The advantage of them is that in hot climates, they keep the root mass cooler. They seem to work for me in outside veggie grows.

You're pathetic attempts to discredit me garner you little fame, and that only among those as ignorant, or jealous

This is a reveg of a near dead plant, but you wouldn't know that, as you are too busy shoving your foot in your mouth

Discredit... :rolleyes: you're delusional, when you post such piss-poor plants there's nothing left for me to discredit. I also have no desire to do so, it's not like you have any credit in my book to begin with, you lost that a long time ago. Which was my point to begin with, why do you keep discrediting yourself by posting such "pathetic" plants?

I like them...I don't find them hard to water at all...

here's the 5 gallon airpot...It's only 3+ gallons of
actual soil though...Using cfls for both vegging and flowering, I would have pulled almost half a pound of her if not for the budrot....Note to newbies: Don't let your flower room be in the 80+ RH range...

Because you're not understanding the root tip pruning system and using them to the plant's advantage. I use RootBuilder and copper hydroxide paints and it works well as designed if you follow directions and understand what makes a plant tick. Now, if you to expect to get anything of benefit out of potbound plant that is flowering and put into a root tip pruning system, forget it. There will be no benefit. https://www.rollitup.org/t/spin-out-for-chemical-root-pruning.9114/
