Im looking to get a 7gallon grow bag fif my plant before I set her under the scrog. I gotta go through Amazon, so if anyone has a suggestion for a quality fabric pot I'd really appreciate your help.

In a 1 gallon pot going to transplant into a 7 gallon suggestions on which brand and size I need would be very helpful
ThanksIMG_20180525_183656.jpg

No real recommendation.
Most of the bags out there for sale are similar in construction, same material etc.
Just search Amazon, Ebay etc.
All I can really say about fabric bags. They are a winner in my book.
:peace:
Just make sure the bag has handles, easier to move.

Thanks I have my Hindu Kush plant in a fabric pot. I don't think it drains as well as it should, that's why I was curious if one brand was better quality than another.. I appreciate your help in going to be ordering a 7 gallon now ..

I used the reusable grocery bags,the breathable ones.The green Spartan bags worked great,set them on the ground and the roots grow through the bottom.

NICE !!
I wish I would've read this earlier, I could've saved myself $12 ... I just ordered a 10gal Smart Pot.. Glad you mentioned the fabric grocery bags...I got a pile of them ... Thanks

My local hydro store carries their own bags and the prices are better. Maybe call around depending on where you live.

If you have a sewing machine and don't mind putting in a little time, you can make them out of weed or shade cloth, whichever you can find cheaper. Here I've got some starter bags I made from burlap that I then transfer into 2.5 - 3 gal bags made from black weed blocker fabric. Both were purchased from home depot.

I really like the way the air pruning creates a HUGE web/network of roots throughout the entire pot, and I run these bags for everything I grow, both smokable and edible.

Most of the pots are similar quality, highly recommend handles on smaller pots. To me slow watering is a key in these fabric pots...just my opinion. As mentioned above don't be afraid to diy it, necessity is the mother of invention. Good luck and blessings

10 gal is fine. A lot of people use that size or bigger, especially if they are vegging for an extended period

This is what I ended up with...10 gallon Smart pot and im in the process of building a scrog using a baby gate and trellis netting...now I have to figure out if to black it out for the dark cycle. I had to undo most of it this morning and carry the heavy plant upstairs to a closet, i didnt think it through yesterday...lolIMG_20180529_003118.jpg IMG_20180529_003259.jpg IMG_20180529_003118.jpg
