This year im growing in pots. I was wondering if anybody dose this method? Im Growing 10 in all, 4 in 2gallon, 4 in 5 gallon, and 2 in 8gallon. There all nice and bushy in 1-2 gallon pots when they start to show signs of flower, im transplanting in the bigger pots so they have room to finish. This is my first time with this method any feedback, thoughts or anyone do this before?

I'm doing the same thing this year. I usually grow in a raised garden bed, but this year I wanted to try a few plants in containers. I went to Target and picked up a few three gallon containers for $4 a piece. I'm using a mix of last year's soils.. a little bit of Fox Farms Ocean Forest and Kelloggs organic potting mix. I hear more raves about FF, but I actually like Kelloggs better. Nothing real fancy on this end, just Alaska Fish Emulsions (5-1-1) during the vegetation cycle. I haven't decided what I'll use for bloom yet. I still have some misc stuff lying around from other grows. IDK, we'll see what the sales are like when the time comes.

I'm growing Nirvana Bubbalicious and a local strain my buddy handed me. I think he called it SnowCap. This is my third time growing Bubbalicious, first time growing Snowcap. What about you? What are you growing?

Nice man, im growing buba kush. og kush. sour diesel and chem dog. I have a greenhouse but when i put them in the groun last year, one blue dream took over the whole greenhouse hahha! Anyway i use the greenhouse and outdoor, i think the pots that we are going to use are better to contoll the plant and get better quality. The big blue dream was so big the under growth did not come out good at all it was stragaly. I use flora nova its a to-part grow and bloom, simple and its all organic. One you use when its veging and one you use when in flower, ive only used that and have great results. The only thing im worried about is out yeid!

I'm with Vindicated, also doing Bubblelicious in pots with the same mix. I kinda copied him ;) probably going to go with 3 gallons all the way through. Vindicated, any tips for the bubbles? Sorry, Don't want to thread jack, you can message me if you want..

I took all my 5gal buckets and cut about 75% of the plastic off the bucket then stuck a 5gal paint strainer inside. That way the roots will get air like the "smart pots"
