My apologies if this is in the wrong place, this is a massive site and can be confusing where what thread should go.
Anyways....
Has anybody viewing this grown in pvc pipe instead of normal(?) Pots? I have a couple that I think are a little root bound, and my space is running out fast with huge pots. I am hoping that I can make a long cylindrical pot made from pvc. But I am a little worried that the roots will try to go out instead of down, or just something going wrong. I have uploaded a picture to show my situation. The one on the left has been this height for about 2 weeks with no change, and the other is beginning to slow down now. I can see root tips trying to come through the water holes on the bottom of the pot. I know they need more room, but fark!! I have no room left!
I am hoping I can use pvc pipe as I can put elbows in it and make a longer pot without losing too much room.
I hope this make sense to somebody!
