nothing is wrong with plastic pots. just way better options out there. google geopots or smartpots. they really are way better than plastic. i only say this cuz i get better troot systems which mean bigger plants with less veg time and bigger buds when it comes to flowering. i stand by them now. use to only use plastic but was thankfully converted.

Word ^^^^

Wish I had more metal pots. The companys name was LERIO and we used them in the trade for long term plants, mostly palm trees. I only have a 7 gal left, but it is over 35 years old. No rust or anything. Really well made and priced accordingly.

IDK bout that I was readin bout those smart pot and geopots those things sound pretty interesting. I doubt it would be the kind of thing anyone growing on a larger scale would probably use, but I think it wouldn't be such a bad idea to check one out for a mother plant or sumptin at first see if it really does make any diff or not.
