ok i transplanted the plants today because i started to see roots in the drain holes.
i was so worried about this process, that it actually went very smooth.
the root system when i took the pot off was amazing and very very strong.it didnt dawn on me to take pics but anyways.
also im not sure if that white color is bad or not but i live in a small town.i was thinking if its a problem then its nothing duct tape cant handle.
and i drilled holes around the top of the bucket for tying down and obviously drilled holes for drainage.
