Newb Question

Hey all. I just wanted to see how people usually run their no till gardens as far as transplanting/pot size. I’m planning on a final pot size of 15 gal/plant. Is it possible to plant directly in the big pots, or do you guys all pot up?

It's up to you. You can up pot and you can plant directly into the final pot. I personally go direct into my 150gal soil bed. I would directly plant seeds but my worms move too much and kill the seed. So I sprout in a soil block and put that in the soil as soon as it breaks through.

Are you using fabric pots?

I think that this is more important when/if running autoflower seeds. You don't want transplant shock on auto's because they don't have time to recover. Not many people run autoflower though... The other reason would be to save space in your veg room.
