It's all good I'm nice to everybody. Especially when I'm as fucked up as I am right now, it's a wonderful thing :eyesmoke:

No offence man. But I do my research before listening to randoms on the internet. My research brought me to your 5 gallon root bound plants in coco, which lead me to believe you don’t know what you’re doing.

I’ll only speak from what I’ve actually experienced and tried personally

What 5 gallon root bound plants are you talking about bro ? I think you might be confusing me with someone else ?

I don't give advice I've not tried myself except if it comes from an expert, eg Harley, Bugbee...

pro mix or coco

My coco goes completely dry uh before every feeding. I'm not saying that you're wrong, but my plants have never suffered from the coco their in being completely dried out? Right - you want it to mostly dry out between waterings - at least in my application also...but i don't use small pots...

You haven't noticed plants roots grow in circles when kept for in long plastic pots ?

Those roots that rotted, for the hell of it we decided to try Arjans(greenhouse) ridiculous claims that flushing a plant with 16 liters of water ever can't remember what weeks, was back in 2013 but it was like 4 times in the flowering cycle IIRC and of course the roots drowned :roll:

P.s. the claim was increased flowering sites...

Kudos to you buddy, I was always taught bigger pots bigger buds.

Smaller pots can grow big plants if fed and treated correctly. I am no expert by any stretch of the imagination but the concept of just using bigger pots for bigger buds goes along with magic in a bottle wonder nutes that claim ridiculous things.

Oh yeah. But you’re still standing by root bound plants in 5 gallons of coco?

Hey man it's been 7 years man but yes I seem to remember plants with circular roots when removing the root mass, why on earth would I make that up ? I'm just not following but have also had a very long long day....

P.s. they were 5.2g circular plastic pots with only holes in the bottom.
