dont smart pots grow roots out the bottom into the soil below?I throw down hella gypsum. I'm taking like 7 lbs per yard that will be piled on top of the mound area...
Then I just dump my mix on top of that which is compost, castings, peat, perlite, lava rock and a custom amendment blend.
Yes bro. More soil. This year I'm not even drip irrigating because I want throw as much soil at them as I can. Every dollar to soil. I'm flood irrigating this year because my new gardens are just large prepared areas. No more containers / mounds etc.,
@mendo420 - Sorry bro, no pics, but it did happen!
@Azde - UTFSE
@MrSterling - What else do you call it when a plant drops from optimum health? I call that dying. Plants going root bound is horrible for them. Brix drops when root health suffers, This opens them up to disease both fungal and insect vectored....You are 100% starving a plant if you constrict its roots. An expansive thriving root system is necessary for proper plant health and flowering...Going in to flower with a root bound plant is a dangerous dance. I'll take as much soil as I can get. Thinking you can get away with other wise is foolish...I already tried.
Blessings and RASPECT!
a product called '"wire lock" is the commercial means to do this" Anyone have any good suggestions for holding a blackout cover down? we usually use dirt bags but they're kind of expensive. I got some old fire hose i plan to fill with sand to see if that will work. I got a quote from smart pots for a 4" round "tube" 10' long to fill with sand but they're $25 each!"
Hey bud...I just use clips (left side close up in 1st photo) I keep a box of a dozen or so, clip the 4 corners of the hot house covering (black or clear), bottom and top and use a few to pinch together an entrance opening. A couple bucks or less each, reusable year to year and reasonably quick for the daily cover/uncover process...CC

So not technically a big plant question but I figure the guys that frequent this thread have all kinds of experience with all kinds of things.
If a guy wanted to just grow a couple of 1 lb plants...say Tahoe OG. What size pots, when to go out in the sun and how big when they go into the sunshine might he be looking at?

Hey guys love the thread! Been following it for a while.
Anyways, I wanted to see if anyone had any experience with ak-47 outdoors and if they could tell me more about it.
Does it have potential to be a huge plant with high yield outdoors? (like blue dream, SSH, ect).
Typical plant structure?
And is it hard to get them to adjust to the outdoor light schedule without them flowering early?
Any information on top of this would be great.
Thanks,
