I love Air Pots! Check out the pics of the root masses!

Harvested a few ladies a couple days ago. First time using Air Pots. Wish I'd saved the root masses from the traditional pots I've been using. These things are awesome. Plants grew twice as large in veg, faster in flowering, and looking at the roots it's no surprise. No root circling, just a huge mass of white roots. Awesome, never going back. These were the 3.4G pots that I finished in. Anyway, this was something of an experiment for me, and they passed with flying colors.

Here's a few pics:

Here's the trainwreck that I just harvested out of one of them. 79 days flowering:

And the Eva seeds Missing that's now at 80-81 days (I think) and stillllll going:

I actually purchased mine at a local hydro store...you can find them on amazon, but they weren't much cheaper unless you bought 10+ and I only needed 4. Plus, I support the local shops as much as possible. They really are worth the cash if you're a soil grower. 4 of them is the same price as some fancy bottle of nutes (or less even) and the ROI on these is much much higher.

I was skeptical at first, as I am about anything and everything marketed to this industry. However, these things can grow monsters. First time I had to raise my lights all the way up, and actually remove the shelf that they were sitting on to give another 2' of vertical clearance. Even the typically smaller indicas I grew ended up 2x the normal size. Won't speed up your flowering time, but it'll make the flowers much much larger. My 2 cents.

I concur. For less than 1/2 a bottle of highly marketed AN nutes, you can use airports and grow beasts. And they're sturdy as hell and reusable. Can't beam 'em.

i also use air pots. in fact in my soil i do only air pots. you can usually get them at your local hydro shop. otherwise http://www.htgsupply.com has them. they're one of the best online sites for grow equipment. you can reuse them also. i just clean mine out good with soapy water then make sure to rinse the soap out good. another advantage is if you have bugs they are forced to stay on top and wont be able to hide in the holes on the bottom or sides. spray the fuck out of your soil on top of the pot with dr doom bombs every couple weeks and it will really help keep any gnats at bay.
