Has anyone noticed a difference when they put in the ground in a greenhouse or in pots? i have some blue dream i'm ready to flip but don't know which is better for them....i was thinkin of getting some smart pots for the greenhouse.....

the only difference is that the plants in the ground have more space to grow as tall as they want.

and pots are easier to flush more accurately in the end.

It depends on the characteristics of the soil. If you're planting in the ground, you need to know what you're planting in (soil composition, nutrient content, drainage, possible pests).

If you do use pots, you could leave the bottoms open or use smart pots so the roots can still grow down into the ground. The more room your roots have to spread out and do their thing, the better your plants will produce.

Also, if you're planting in the ground and feeding organically, there's no reason to flush your plants.

Ya most stay with pots. Big pots. The smart pots are great and reusable. a few 100g smart pots you will have some really big trees.

Ground > more root space
Pots > less mold issues

If I'm not mistaken I do believe that Doobieduck might plant in the ground in a greenhouse or atleast that is what it looks like . He has some very sweet pics of his work. Plus it will depend on how cold your ground gets lol peace out Headband707
