Thanks for the advice. I think I'm goona do one of my plants in smart pots to see what all the talk is about. Thanks

will the rubbermaid containers get too hot and damage the roots? is there anything i can do to prevent this from happening because i can just imagine how hot that plastic will get in the summer. we have a lot of days that reach well over a hundred where i live. :leaf:

i know this thread is getting a little old but i started my plants already. i currently have the BB X NL, THC bomb, and Diamond girl in their pots. the og kush, purple #1, and Hollands hope are in paper towels right now and should be ready to plant by tommorow morning. i have cellophane over the...

wow norcalabdiver, those plants look real healthy. im also thinking about using those smart pots. do they have holes on the bottom for drainage? would that 30 gallon bag work better than a 30 gallon plastic rubbermaid tote? i need to be able to move mine around the backyard. i was planning on...

hello to everyone at rollitup. Has anyone grown in rubbermaid containers? im talking about the 25 gallon or 55 gallon tote that people usually use for storage.

Thanks a lot for your input bro. yeah, i am trying to grow some monster trees in my backyard. ive heard a lot of different opinions about how close to keep my lights to the babies. im using the t5 tubes and i think they give off a little more heat than regular cfls. not too sure though. i have...
