Hello I’m just looking for some advice. I am switching from 2.7 gallon PLASTIC pots to 3gallon cloth pots aka smart pots. Wondering what are some things I should look out for ? Tips and tricks to them ? I am growing under 300 watts of quantum boards and have a carbon filter sucking air out. Tent is basically 3ft by 3ft.
Thank you for your time and reply’s !!

Sincerely 3000

Water them slow or the water could go on the outside of the soil (between soil and fabric) and just drain out. Other than that, you should be good

They also allow you to set them up in a flood and drain system. I have 5'-6' in 2 gallon smart pots with Coco. This allows me to feed 3x per day. They seem to work better the more you use them also (roots make it through pot easier).

Im diggin these floraflex dealios on my 2gallon.
Have their hose and clips waiting to install.
I have done the blackholes, the halos, made my own. I always go back to flood and drain, less chance you will miss one that isn't flowing right. With flood and drain I can easily tell if the pump didn't pump or not. I am using the black holes on one tray, due to high issues.

So I transferred my plants into 3 gallon cloths 3-4 days ago and one of them is freaking out. I will add pics. But right now I’m veg them and am nervous about adding any nutrients right now. The soil I used is pro mix mixed with green and gold basic

Any ideas on what’s going on with this one plant though ?
