Yeah not sure about smart pots myself but i think they need to be above ground to benefit from the air pruning, the roots are probably just growing through the pot into the ground? But like ive said ive never used them and its just what ive seen on forums. Do you bother with ph?
Never need to ph...i check my soil after i e cooked it for two months thats it...
As for the smart pots i buried it halfway up and put 4 inches of gd soil underneath for the roots if they went thru..im sure they have its a big plant for a 15 gallon :)
But you have a point for sure mate ...ive taken note of that.
Cant wait to get home to update its been a week away

Never used smart pots. They do like similar to what I use to line the pots in my tent. Pot Sox. Great for holding perlite.
I brought them as i dont have a huge space for plants..2 15 gallon ones this year and one in ground.
Last year i had one 15 gallon (5.5 oz)
And the one in the ground approx 27 odd oz...
I think my 15 gallon may hit 10 oz this year but im sure ill do just the 2 next year but both in 400 litres of new soil holes..looking for 3lb between the 2 ;)

Just curious ..i think it was @757growin who has llamas and i think the shit from them would be gd :)
I have unlimited access to huge piles of cow shit from the dairy I work at. I used tonnes in my veggie patch. Llamas/alpacas make great sheep guardians. I prefer to ward foxes off with .223!
I will try for a huge plant this coming season, a three pounder would be something see. Have permanent creek line to throw them in.

wonder woman is still in the shopping basket, along with the early girl. I have 3-4 more blueberry crosses to try as well. I will do a bit more ground preparation next time. This plant was a extra cutting I had, but couldn't just throw away. Dug small hole and planted. Didn't think it was ever going to get this big.

I am waiting until I generate some $$$ for some lights hung vertical and then these wonder woman will be started @ruby fruit I still have 5 left out of the 10. I did think about throwing them down this morning when I was raging starting sèeds but I do think I had pack with issues considering the amount I start. I want the cunts to work :)

Chipper seems like a real deal farmer rubes. I just got my Llama with the ranch. He probably knows a ton more on Llama then me. The previous owners got them to protect their sheep and goats. I prefer the .223 as well chipper. But great manure. I have a 50/50 batch of Llama poo and reused soil kicking but right now

I'm no farmer mate. Need more money for what I want to do. And need the old neighbours to die off so I can buy their place!

I think you guys should run around collecting roo shit.
And pick up a bit of pig shit along the way
