Deep or Wide Pots?

[bigsteve]

Deeper pots = taller plants. Wider pots = bushier plants. Go with the wide. BigSteve.

Do you have any proof of this? Not doubting you, would just like to know before I go ahead and give it a go

there's a good book called "roots demystified" by robert kourik. most of the info posted here is wrong according to this book. just sayin!

Tell us what the book says then, rather than just telling everyone they're wrong.....


p.s I know this thread is a couple of months old from the last post but thought I'd post in here rather then create a new thread...

"Do you have any proof of this?" Just years of experience. Jeez, you ask for help then give the third degree. Manners, eh? BigSteve.

I realize this goes against prevailing consensus here but just from my observations from yanking up many rootballs after the chop, I've noticed that the rootball tends to grow outward much more than downward. That is not to say that the tap and secondary roots do not continue to go downward until it's dead.

I guess I will use the wider pots since the article in High Times said that you have better yields. Thanks for the information and help!

but if you have limited space, using wide pots will decrease the number of plants you can grow, how much more yeild do you have to get to be more than an extra plant or two?

I'm a deep pots guy and follow the theory of wanting a large tap root, but I have found bottom roots stay too wet for me, but in practice I've had very good results my wide pots too

I thought the exact same thing when I opened this thread and noticed the dates. Then I predicted you would eventually come in here to scream on dude like his dad.

Dad used to say if you can't reach the bottom make sure you beat up the sides.
I'm still not sure if he was talking about growing. But I guess I'm a width guy

I need something to do if I'm not growing.

It's not the size of the pot it's how you use it.
