New Grower Square Air-Pots?

[Bromeo]

The smart pot a plenty stable. I use them in the cooler season because they dry out nice for me at that time. They are well built and well stitched pots, easy to store away to. Just a pain in the ass to clean and after about 4 uses to start looking pretty ragged. But for $3 they are worth it.

Does anyone know where to buy square air-pots? As I would like to save some space.

First off Z-man welcome to the forum my friend and hope you enjoy your stay , Air-pots are what they are mate , there round for a reason so the roots dont hit any corners and the roots get air-pruned as quickly as poss then they produce more roots and so on , then because of this you'll end up with a bigger plant mate so you dont need to have your pots up close to each other buddie :smokebuds:

I read the pros and cons with air-pots for autoflower on some site and they stated a claim that air-pots can prune the roots during critical growing stage of a autoflower and therefore make the plant smaller rather than larger. Any thoughts?

Cheers mate
Um

Um I'm going with untrue on that one bud. Take a quick trip through the BOM section and scope out those monsters. Most were grown in air pots.

Lmao , sorry z-man your going to lose that one mate i grow in airpots and my girls are just fine size wise mate , lol ,

There you go 41 days in air-pots under a 400w in coco standing 1.2m tall , just get some and try them mate

 

[z-man12]

Very nice. What's the pot size? I was thinking of using a 15l.

 

[dex]

15lts will be spot on mate as im finding the 20's are growing the girls a little to big and there not growing to there full potential but im in coco and they grow a little bigger than soil , my next grow i'll be dropping down to 15's as ive a small tent , you can see the details in the first page of my diary z-man

all the best bro

 

[z-man12]

Cheers man, will go for the 15l one.

Nearly everything is worked out just need a few things like a carbon filter/outake, intake fan, Ph meter for runoff (is EC meter necessary?) and a good de/humidifier at a decent price. Any recommendations?

 

[dex]

Rhino Pro CFs are great Z , outtake and intake will depend on your groom size mate and the pH meter is so you know whats going IN to your babies , an ec meter will tell you exactly what food going into your girls mostly used with synthetic nutes and humidifiers i dont know buddie dont use them

I would like to use the budbox titan 2.

Will go for 24/0 with GN lights.

About the Ph, I know how it works and wanted to know if there are any brands that stand out with the liquid calibration thingy.
