Hello all,
If one were to take a 3" pot and transplant it into a 4gal, you'd assume that the watering frequency would be dramatically reduced, yes? Of course over time as a plant grows larger, watering frequency would slowly increase. My question is, having smaller plant in a large pot will increase the amount of time the soil is at a higher saturation level, I assume. This increases chance for lack of oxygen, anerobic bacteria, or other nasty problems nobody needs (assuming again)?
When/If you transplant to such a large pot, do you worry about this? Anything you do differently, other than reduce the watering frequency? Maybe just have a soil that drains well is enough. I dunno...just throwing some stuff out there.
Cheers all, peace.
