Friend of mine uses these. Puts his clones into them when he transplants. Never seen them before and not sure what they do. That's what i want to know. What's the benefit over transplanting directly into your pro mix without them? Pics attached.

They're an organic potting cup that can be transplanted into large container with out the use or need to from the plant from the soil. They hold no nutritional value to the plant all they are are conveniences for the gardener so that they don't have to get dirty. the only benefit i can see is that it allows you to see which clones will live or die with out wasting a lot of soil.

I used those when I grew from seed. They are "peet pots" and dissolve in the soil. It makes transplanting seedlings stress free for the delicate little plant - so you don't have to worry about them suffering transplant shock. You just bury the entire thing - pot and all in the new container. But yes, you still get to get dirty digging the hole and covering it up.
