Default Clear containers
I repotted my plants about a week ago in clear rubbermaid containers. Now I am wondering if light will affect the roots? If so i can cover the containers.

SWIM used clear containers and had a problem with roots not growing. Since that time, SWIM uses black 3 gal bags, which keep the roots in darkness

Don't use clear containers! The light damages the roots - cover them up.
