why clear cups are bad?

from what ive read it promotes root rot. i use a colored cup on the outside of my clear cup to block light from roots.

You can use clear containers. Its a myth that sunlight is bad for roots. Roots can be hit by light it won't effect them. But being exposed to open air and sunlight will obviously kill them. (by drying them out)

This is a plant I have had in this container for about a month between my two mothers under a 150 hps.

ya wasn't sure if that was forum myth or fact....sounded reasonable.....but seems that it's just myth,.....chalk that up to a learning experience!

anyone else?
how are they loking?

DAY 17, DAY 2 under HPS 400W
How They are looking?

they look great! But why transfer into such small pots? r u going to do a very short veg period? This should be ur last transplant, so u should make sure ur pots r big enough for the rest of the grow.

light is not good for ur nutrient water, i could see how someone got that mixed up with roots.
if u were using bubble buckets, and light was hitting the water ur roots would then look like crap.

It's a auto,
and I have read that 1-2 gal pots are perfect for this strain. Transfer to bigger pots?
