one of the big advantages of fabric pots is that they dont heat up in the sun like plastic ones, on a hot summers day you can feel the side of a fabric pot and it will be cool/warm, when a regular container ir friggin HOT.
i am a firm beleiver in fabric pots.

$68 for a 67 gallon fabric pot......plus shipping.......no thanks?
Kiddie pools, super cheap, 100 gallon Smart Pot are $20-$25.
I was a "in ground grower" until I used a Smart Pot one season. The plant in the Smart Pot produced 20% more buds than the "in the ground" plants did. Smart Pots ever since.

Love'm if folks are referring to fabric pots. Can't go too large here, illegal and short season but they yield at least 1oz. per gallon of medium for me so worth the couple of dollars buying the pots. Plus I re-use them many times over. Only downside is they dry up fast the last few weeks in flower...

I bought a five pack of two gallon fabric pots for my future indoor grow. I plan placing my two seedlings into the ground when they're big enough. I just dug the soil up a little and amended the ground with some base soil, worm castings, vermiculite and Black Kow manure, but it's not much I was hoping it would be okay for them to grow straight into the ground.

You're experienced in ground growing what is your input with such?
